Explanation of Responses:
1. The 36,000 amount reflects unvested performance restricted stock units ("PRSU") granted pursuant to a Rule 16b-3 qualified plan award to the Reporting Person on 03/15/07 and cliff vests on 02/26/10, with the number of PRSUs that vest dependent upon Issuer's financial performance over such period. For the 2007 PRSU award, vesting will occur after completion of the performance period that began on 01/01/07 and will end on 12/31/09. Performance will be measured based on Issuer's performance period relative to pre-established targets, with vesting ranging from 0% to 200% of the granted amount. One half of vested PRSUs are restricted from sale, assignment or transfer for one year following the vesting date.
2. No reportable change -- this is a reiteration of holdings only.
3. 1 for 1
4. Information originally included at time grant and/or dividends were reported.
5. These shares were acquired under Issuer's Amended and Restated 2003 Incentive Plan of Electronic Data Systems Corporation. These options cliff vest on 02/26/2010 and remains exercisable until 03/15/14. Once vested, stock options may not be exercised through a "cashless exercise" during the twelve-month period following the vesting date. In addition, stock issued upon an exercise of an option within the twelve-month period following the vesting date will be subject to a holding period of one year from the date of exercise.
6. Shares of phantom stock units ("PSU") under the Issuer's Executive Deferral Plan ("EDP") are immediately exercisable, but issued following termination of Reporting Person's employment with Issuer. The PSU amount reported is comprised of: 10.1460 PSU dividends @ $26.8950 from 11/13/06; 9.4530 PSU @ $28.9200 from 02/15/07; and a deminimus adjustment due to rounding.
