APPENDIX B – SUMMARY PLAN INFORMATION ................................    66

Computer Sciences Corporation, a Nevada corporation, by resolution of its Board of Directors dated August 14, 1995, adopted the Computer Sciences Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), which constituted a complete amendment and restatement of the Computer Sciences Corporation Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Predecessor Plan”), effective as of September 30, 1995, for the benefit of its Nonemployee Directors, as defined below, and certain of its Key Executives, as defined below.

The Plan was amended and restated effective as of February 2, 1998, as of August 13, 2001, as of December 9, 2002, as of August 11, 2003, as of January 1, 2005 (the “2005 Restatement”), as of October 28, 2007, and as of December 3, 2007 (the “2007 Restatement”). The Plan is hereby amended and restated effective as of December 31, 2012 (the “2012 Restatement”).

The 2007 Restatement was intended to reflect the provisions of new Section 409A of the Code (as defined below) and the regulations and other Treasury Department guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”), and shall be interpreted accordingly. The 2007 Restatement applied to (A) “amounts deferred” (within the meaning of Section 409A) by Key Executives in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2004 and ending (i) in the case calendar year deferrals, on December 31, 2012, or (ii) in the case of fiscal year deferrals, on March 31, 2013, and any earnings thereon and (B) amounts deferred by Nonemployee Directors in taxable years beginning both before and after December 31, 2004 and ending on December 31, 2012, and any earnings thereon (collectively, “2005-2012 Deferrals”). The provisions of the Plan in existence prior to the 2005 Restatement shall continue to govern “amounts deferred” (within the meaning of Section 409A) by Key Executives that were earned in taxable years beginning before January 1, 2005, and any earnings thereon (collectively, “Grandfathered Deferrals”). The 2012 Restatement adds Part C, which applies to “amounts deferred” (within the meaning of Section 409A) by Key Executives and Nonemployee Directors that were earned in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012 (in the case of Key Executives, exclusive of amounts deferred on or about March 31, 2013 in accordance with a deferral election made prior to January 1, 2012), and any earnings credited under the Plan for periods on or after January 1, 2013 (“Post-2012 Deferrals).

As such, Part A of the Plan is applicable solely to Grandfathered Deferrals, Part B of the Plan is applicable solely to 2005-2012 Deferrals, and Part C of the Plan is applicable solely to Post-2012 Deferrals; provided, however, that earnings for periods on or after January 1, 2013 on Part A, Part B and Part C Account balances shall be determined under

the 2012 Restatement. Post-2012 Deferrals and 2005-2012 Deferrals are intended to comply in all respects with Section 409A (“Section 409A Deferrals”).

The Plan shall constitute two separate plans, one for the benefit of Nonemployee Directors (the “Nonemployee Director Plan”) and one for the benefit of Key Executives (the “Key Executive Plan”). The Key Executive Plan is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan which is unfunded and is maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees, within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA, as defined below. The Nonemployee Director Plan is not subject to ERISA. This document is also intended to constitute the Summary Plan Description for the Plan. For purposes of the Plan, the term “Key Executive” shall mean any Employee of the Company who is an officer or other key executive of the Company and who qualifies as a “highly compensated employee or management employee” within the meaning of Title I of ERISA, and the term “Nonemployee Director” shall mean a member of the Board who is not an Employee.

For the Partial First Plan Year, Part A Participants may defer any or all of the Qualified Bonus which is earned by them after September 29, 1995 and before March 30, 1996.

Section 3.3 Deferral of Qualified Salary

(a)    Each Eligible Key Executive may elect to defer into his or her Part A Account all or a portion of the Qualified Salary which would otherwise be payable to him or her for any Plan Year in which he or she has not incurred a Separation from Service as of the first day of the Plan Year in question, but only to the extent such deferrals would qualify as Grandfathered Deferrals. Such Eligible Key Executive may elect to defer his or her Qualified Salary for such Plan Year as follows:

(i)    such Eligible Key Executive may elect to defer all or any portion of the amount by which his or her Qualified Salary exceeds the Section 401(a)(17) Limitation, or

Such election shall be made by the Eligible Key Executive by completing and delivering to the Administrator his or her Part A Election Form for such Plan Year no later than the last day of the next preceding Plan Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the period commencing on August 13, 2001 and ending on March 29, 2002, an Eligible Key Executive may only elect to defer Qualified Salary under this Section 3.3 if the Administrator designates such Eligible Key Executive as eligible to make such deferrals. The Administrator shall determine the manner in which such Eligible Key Executive’s deferral election shall be made for the period described in the preceding sentence, and an Eligible Key Executive’s deferral election shall be made within 30 days of the designation of such Eligible Key Executive and shall only apply to Qualified Salary which would otherwise be payable after such deferral election is made.

(b)    Any such election made by a Part A Participant to defer Qualified Salary shall be irrevocable and shall not be amendable by the Part A Participant, except:

(i)    as set forth in Section 6.2 and 6.3; or

(ii)    in the event of Hardship, a Part A Participant may terminate the Part A Participant’s deferral election for the Plan Year in which the Hardship occurs with respect to all Qualified Salary which has not yet been deferred.

Section 4.1 Part A Deferred Compensation Accounts

The Administrator shall establish and maintain for each Part A Participant a Part A Account to which shall be credited the amounts allocated thereto under this Article IV and from which shall be debited the Part A Participant's distributions and withdrawals under Articles V and VI.

Section 4.2 Crediting of Part A Deferred Compensation

Each Part A Participant’s Part A Account shall be credited with an amount which is equal to the amount of the Part A Participant’s Qualified Bonus and Qualified Salary which such Part A Participant has elected to defer under Article III at the time such Qualified Bonus or Qualified Salary, whichever is applicable, would otherwise have been paid to the Part A Participant.

Section 4.3 Crediting of Earnings

(a)Beginning on January 1, 2013 and for all periods thereafter subject to amendment by the Board, earnings shall be credited to or charged against a Participant’s Part A Account on each valuation date based on a rate equal to the aggregate rate of return on the notional investment options offered under the Plan and set forth in Appendix A hereof as selected by the Part A Participant. Such rate of return shall be calculated by the Administrator based on the individual actual rates of return of each underlying fund corresponding to the notional investment option. Earnings shall be credited or charged against a Participant’s Part A Account during periods in which such Participant has an outstanding balance in such Account. The Administrator shall have the responsibility to calculate the rate of return for a notional investment option for any given period based on the actual return of the corresponding investment fund, and such calculation shall be conclusive and binding on all interested parties. The Administrator shall solicit the initial notional investment election of Part A Participants with respect to one or more notional investment options in which the Part A Participant wishes to notionally invest their Part A Account. Part A Participants may be permitted to elect to change their initial notional investment election in accordance with rules established by the Administrator. The Administrator shall establish reasonable investment procedures with respect to the notional investment options offered by the Plan and Part A and Participants shall be required to comply with such procedures. Such procedures shall include adequate disclosure of the Plan rules regarding the provision of investment directions to the Administrator with respect

to the Participant’s notional investment election and the transfer of Account balances from one notional investment option to another. The Administrator shall designate one of the notional investment options as the default investment option in the event a Part A Participant fails to make an affirmative, timely and effective investment election.

(b)Beginning on March 29, 2003 and until December 31, 2012, for each Plan Year earnings shall be credited to each Part A Participant's Part A Account, at a rate equal to the 120-month rolling average yield to maturity of the index called the “Merrill Lynch U.S. Corporates, A Rated, 15+ Years Index” as of December 31 of the preceding Plan Year, compounded annually.

(c)Beginning on September 30, 1995 and until March 28, 2003, for each Plan Year earnings shall be credited to each Part A Participant's Part A Account, at a rate equal to 120% of the 120-month rolling average yield to maturity on 10‑year United States Treasury Notes as of December 31 of the preceding Plan Year, compounded annually.

(d)Earnings shall be credited on such valuation dates as the Administrator shall determine.

Section 4.4 Applicability of Part A Account Values

Such trust by its terms shall, among other things, be irrevocable. The value of liabilities and assets transferred to the trust shall be determined by one or more nationally recognized firms qualified to provide actuarial services as described in Section 4 of the Computer Sciences Corporation Severance Plan for Senior Management and Key Employees. The establishment and funding of such trust shall not affect the obligation of the Company to provide benefits payments under the terms of Part A of the Plan to the extent such benefits are not paid from the trust. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any trust agreement to the contrary, in no event shall (i) assets of the Company or any affiliate be set aside or reserved (directly or indirectly) in a trust or transferred to such a trust for purposes of paying deferred amounts and earnings thereon for an “applicable covered employee” (as defined in Section 409A(b)(3)(D)(i) of the Code) under Part A of the Plan during any “restricted period” (as defined in Section 409A(b)(3)(B) of the Code), or (ii) any assets of the Company, any affiliate or any trust described in this paragraph become restricted to the provision of benefits under Part A of the Plan in connection with a “restricted period” (as defined in Section 409A(b)(3)(B) of the Code); in each case, unless otherwise permitted under Section 409A(b)(3) of the Code without the imposition of the additional tax set forth in Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code or any other taxes or penalties imposed under Section 409A.

Such rate of return shall be calculated by the

Administrator based on the individual actual rates of return of each underlying fund corresponding to the notional investment option. Earnings shall be credited or charged against a Participant’s Part B Account during periods in which such Participant has an outstanding balance in such Account. The Administrator shall have the responsibility to calculate the rate of return for a notional investment option for any given period based on the actual return of the corresponding investment fund, and such calculation shall be conclusive and binding on all interested parties. The Administrator shall solicit the initial notional investment election of Part B Participants with respect to one or more notional investment options in which the Part B Participant wishes to notionally invest their Part B Account. Part B Participants may be permitted to elect to change their initial notional investment election in accordance with rules established by the Administrator. The Administrator shall establish reasonable investment procedures with respect to the notional investment options offered by the Plan and Part B and Participants shall be required to comply with such procedures. Such procedures shall include adequate disclosure of the Plan rules regarding the provision of investment directions to the Administrator with respect to the Participant’s notional investment election and the transfer of Account balances from one notional investment option to another. The Administrator shall designate one of the notional investment options as the default investment option in the event a Part B Participant fails to make an affirmative, timely and effective investment election.

(c)Beginning on September 30, 1995 and until March 28, 2003, for each Plan Year earnings shall be credited to the Part B Accounts of Nonemployee Directors under the Predecessor Plan, at a rate equal to 120% of the 120-month rolling average yield to maturity on 10‑year United States Treasury Notes as of December 31 of the preceding Plan Year, compounded annually.

(d)Earnings shall be credited on such valuation dates as the Administrator shall determine.

Section 12.4 Applicability of Part B Account Values

A Part B Distribution Election pursuant to this Section 13.1 for Qualified Annual Bonus deferrals for a specific Plan Year or for Qualified Salary, Qualified Director Compensation and Qualified Quarterly Bonus deferrals for a specific calendar year may be superseded by a subsequent election, which subsequent election shall then apply to that portion of the Part B Participant’s Part B Account that relates to deferrals for such Plan Year or calendar year, as applicable, as the same may increase from time to time.

A Part B Distribution Election pursuant to this Section 13.3 for Qualified Annual Bonus deferrals for a specific Plan Year or for Qualified Salary, Qualified Director Compensation and Qualified Quarterly Bonus deferrals for a specific calendar year may be superseded by a subsequent election, which subsequent election shall then apply to that portion of the Part B Participant’s Part B Account that relates to deferrals for such Plan Year or calendar year, as applicable, as the same may increase from time to time.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary: no distributions to a Specified Employee under Part B of the Plan that are to be made as a result of the Specified Employee’s Separation from Service for any reason other than death or Disability shall be made or commence prior to the date that is the earlier of six months after the date of Separation from Service or the date of the Specified Employee’s death, or such shorter period that, in the opinion of such counsel, is sufficient to avoid the imposition of the additional tax under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) or any other taxes or penalties imposed under Section 409A (the “Section 409A Taxes”); provided that any distributions that otherwise would have been payable during such six-month (or shorter) period shall continue to accrue earnings under Article XII and shall be distributed (together with any earnings thereon) in lump sum on the first day following the expiration of such six-month (or shorter) period.

Section 13.8 Ordering of Distribution Elections

In the event that a portion of a Part B Participant’s Part B Account becomes payable under two or more Part B Distribution Elections made pursuant to Sections 13.1 through 13.6, the Part B Distribution Election that would result in the complete distribution of that portion of the Part B Participant’s Part B Account on the earliest date shall control. For purposes of this Section 13.8, the payment of distributions pursuant to Section 13.2 following a Separation from Service other than by reason of death or Disability prior to Retirement shall be considered a Part B Distribution Election to receive such amounts in the manner specified in Section 13.2.

By way of example, assume that a Part B Participant elects with respect to deferrals of Qualified Salary for the calendar year 2005 to receive distributions of that portion of the Part B Participant’s Part B Account (i) pursuant to Section 13.1 in equal annual installments over 15 years commencing on the first anniversary of his or her Separation from Service upon Retirement and (ii) pursuant to Section 13.5 in lump sum within in 5 days following a Change in Control. Assume further that the Part B Participant incurs a Separation from Service due to Retirement on July 1, 2007 and that a Change in Control subsequently occurs on February 17, 2010.

If no other date is specified by the Administrator, the Part C Election shall be submitted no later than December 31 prior to the commencement of the Deferral Period, except (i) with respect to Performance-Based Compensation, in which case such election shall be made not later than 6 months before the end of the applicable performance period (so long as such election is made before the Performance-Based Compensation becomes both substantially certain to be paid and readily ascertainable), and (ii) with respect to a person who first becomes an Employee, which person may make such election within 30 days after first becoming an Employee and which election shall apply only to amounts paid for services to be performed after the date of such election,

subject to Treas. Reg. §1.409A -1(c)(2)(i)(A) or (B). In addition, if the Administrator, in its sole discretion, permits an Eligible Key Employee or Nonemployee Director to first become eligible to participate in this Part C at any time other than January 1, and such individual is not a Participant in another plan sponsored by the Company which is considered to be of a similar type as defined in Treas. Reg. §1.409A -1(c)(2)(i)(A) or (B), or as otherwise provided by the Code, a Part C Election to defer Compensation may be submitted to the Administrator within thirty (30) days after the individual becomes eligible to participate. Such Part C Election will be effective only with regard to Compensation earned and payable with respect to services performed following submission of the Part C Election to the Administrator.

(b)    Any such election made by a Part C Participant to defer Compensation shall be irrevocable and shall not be amendable by the Part C Participant, except in the event of a Hardship. A Part C Participant’s deferral election for the Deferral Period in which the Hardship occurs shall be terminated with respect to all Compensation which has not yet been deferred. Any deferral election shall specify the Account or Accounts to which such deferred Compensation shall be credited. Amounts deferred shall be specified as a whole percentage, an exact stated dollar amount (with respect to Qualified Annual Bonus and Qualified Quarterly Bonus only) or based on such other method as may be specified by the Administrator.

(c)    A Part C Election shall be made with respect to each payment and/or type of Compensation that is to be deferred by the Part C Participant, and shall designate the portion of each deferral that shall be allocated among the various Retirement or In-Service Accounts. In addition, no amounts shall be deferred into an In-Service Account during a period when amounts are scheduled to be paid from such Account and until such time as that entire Account has been completely distributed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, for purposes of Part C of this Plan only, Qualified Salary attributable to the final pay period of any calendar year shall be deemed to be earned in the subsequent calendar year, provided the amounts are in fact paid (or payable) in the subsequent calendar year under the Company’s normal compensation practices.

(d)    Maximum Deferrals. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Part C, the maximum amount of Qualified Salary that may be deferred for a Deferral Period shall be eighty percent (80%) and the maximum amount of Qualified Annual Bonus, Qualified Quarterly Bonus, or Qualified Director Compensation that may be deferred for a Deferral Period shall be one hundred percent (100%).

Section 19.2 Defaults in Event of Incomplete or Inaccurate Deferral Documentation

In the event that a Participant submits a Part C Election Form or Part C Distribution Election to the Administrator that contains information necessary to the efficient operation of this Plan which, in the sole discretion of the Administrator, is deemed to be missing, incomplete or inaccurate, the Administrator shall be authorized to treat such form as if the following elections had been made by the Participant, and such information shall be

communicated to the Participant and shall be considered to be irrevocable no later than the last day permitted under Section 409A of the Code:

(a)If no Account is listed – treat as if the Retirement Account designated as “Retirement Account #1” was elected (or if no Retirement Account has been established at that time, then a new Retirement Account will be established utilizing the default provisions in this Section 19.4);

(b)If Accounts listed equal less than 100% – treat as if the balance was deferred into the Retirement Account designated as “Retirement Account #1” (or if no Retirement Account has been established at that time, then a new Retirement Account will be established utilizing the default provisions in this Section 19.2);

(c)If Accounts listed equal more than 100% – proportionately reduce each Account to equal 100%;

(d)If In-Service Account is listed, but no deferrals can be made into that Account due to the fact that benefits are scheduled to be paid or are being paid from that In-Service Account, then the amounts elected to be deferred shall be credited to another In-Service Account, if such other In-Service Account is available for deferral, and if not, then to the Retirement Account with the shortest payout during such period of payment, after which time the balance of the amounts elected to be deferred shall be credited to a subsequent In-Service Account with a distribution date as elected or as provided in sub-section (f), below;

(e)If no Distribution Election is chosen – treat as if the lump sum was the form of payment elected for the In-Service Account and treat as if three (3) year installments was elected for the Retirement Account; and,

(f)If no time of payment is chosen for In-Service Account – treat as if the earliest possible date available under the provisions of Section 22.2, below was elected.

Any withholding of taxes or other amounts with respect to deferred Compensation or other amounts credited under this Plan that is required by local, state or federal law determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator shall be withheld from the Participant's corresponding non-deferred portion of the Compensation to the maximum extent possible, and any remaining amount shall reduce the amount credited to the Participant's Account in a manner specified by the Administrator. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, for purposes of this Part C of the Plan only, Qualified Salary attributable to the final pay period of any calendar year shall be deemed to be earned in the subsequent calendar year, provided the amounts are in fact paid (or payable) in the subsequent calendar year under the Company’s normal compensation practices.
