XEROX CORPORATION SAVINGS PLAN
(formerly Xerox Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings Plan)
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2001 and 2000
(1) Description of the Plan
The following description of the Xerox Corporation Savings Plan (formerly Xerox
Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings Plan) (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 Plan's provisions.
(a) General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all full and
part-time U.S. employees of Xerox Corporation (the "Company") and participating
subsidiaries, except those covered by a collective bargaining agreement unless
that agreement calls for participation in the Plan. Employees are automatically
eligible to participate in the 401(k) savings portion of the Plan upon date of
hire.
(b) Plan Amendments
In January 2001, the Xerox Corporation Savings Plan was amended to eliminate the
cash/deferred component of profit sharing for all participants other than those
covered by a collective bargaining agreement and those covered under the Plan's
Schedule A, Contributions and Allocations for XESystems, Inc. employees.
Effective January 1, 2000, all employees of Tektronix pursuant to the terms of
the Asset Purchase Agreement dated September 22, 1999 will receive credit for
all hours of service for periods when employed by Tektronix for purposes of
determining eligibility under this Plan. As of January 1, 2000, all assets of
the accounts held under Tektronix 401(k) Plan for each participating employee
were transferred to this Plan.
(c) Contributions
Subject to limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), eligible
employees may contribute up to 18% 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.
(d) Vesting of Benefits
Participants are vested immediately in their contributions and actual earnings
thereon.
(e) Payment of Benefits
Upon termination of service, a participant may elect to defer receipt of
benefits, receive either a lump-sum amount equal to the value of his or her
account, or may purchase an annuity payable from a life insurance company. There
were no benefits payable at December 31, 2001 and 2000.
(f) Participant Loans
Participants are permitted to borrow from their accounts subject to limitations
set forth in the plan document. The loans are payable over terms up to 14.5
years and bear interest at the quarterly Citibank commercial prime rate in
effect at the time of loan issuance plus 1%. Principal and interest payments on
the loans are redeposited into the participants' accounts based on their current
investment allocation elections.
(g) Administration
The Company is responsible for the general administration of the Plan and for
carrying out the Plan provisions. The trustee of the Plan is State Street Bank
and Trust Company. Hewitt Associates is the recordkeeper of the Plan.
(h) Plan Termination
The Plan was established with the expectation that it will continue
indefinitely. In the event of a full or partial termination of the Plan, the
rights of all affected participants in the value of their accounts would be
nonforfeitable.
(2) Prior Year Restatement
The statement of net assets available for plan benefits as of December 31, 2000
has been restated to reflect a correction in the allocation of Master Trust
investments between the Plan and The Profit Sharing Plan of Xerox Corporation
and The Xerographic Division, Union of Needletrades, Industrial and Textile
Employees, A.F.L. - C.I.O. - C.L.C. as of December 31, 2000 as follows:
Investment interest in Master Trust, as previously reported $3,281,373
Restatement adjustment - correction in allocation
of the investment interest in Master Trust (20,444)
Investment interest in Master Trust, restated $3,260,929
(3) Summary of Accounting Principles and Practices
(a) Basis of Accounting
The Plan's financial statements are prepared under the accrual basis of
accounting.
(b) Benefit Payments
Benefit payments are recorded when paid.
(c) Contributions
Contributions are recorded when withheld from participants' pay.
(d) Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
(e) Basis of Presentation
The assets of the Plan are held in the Xerox Corporation Trust Agreement to Fund
Retirement Plans (the "Master Trust"). The value of the Plan's interest in the
Master Trust is based on the beginning of year value of the Plan's interest in
the trust, plus actual contributions and investment income based on participant
account balances, less actual distribution and allocated administrative
expenses. For financial reporting purposes, income on plan assets and any
realized or unrealized gains or losses on such assets in the Master Trust are
allocated to the Plan based on participant account balances.
(f) Valuation of Investments
Plan assets in the Master Trust are reported at fair market value using quoted
prices in an active market, if available. Non-readily marketable investments are
carried at estimated fair value. Participant loans are valued at cost, which
approximates fair value.
(g) Administrative Expenses
Certain administrative expenses are paid by the Company.
(h) Risks and Uncertainties
Investments are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate and market. Due
to the level of risk associated with certain investments and the level of
uncertainty related to changes in the value of investments, it is at least
reasonably possible that the changes in risks in the near term would materially
affect the amount reported in the statements of assets available for benefits
and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.
(i) Net Depreciation in Fair Value of Investment Interest in Master Trust
The statement of changes in net assets available for benefits includes the net
depreciation in fair value of investment interest in Master Trust. Such
depreciation consists of the Plan's share of the interest and unrealized
appreciation or depreciation on those investments.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Derivative investments are marked to market on a daily basis
which is reported as margin variation on futures contracts in the statement of
changes in net assets of the Master Trust.
(4) Federal Income Tax Status
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a letter
dated March 31, 1998, 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 and the Plan's tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed
and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements
of the IRC.
(5) Master Trust
As discussed in Note 3, the Plan participates in the Master Trust. The following
Xerox employee benefit plans represent the following percentages in the Master
Trust as of December 31:
2001 2000
Xerox Corporation Savings Plan 41.3% 37.1%
The Profit Sharing Plan of Xerox Corporation and The
Xerographic Division, Union of Needletrades, Industrial

The Finance Committee of the Xerox Board of Directors approves the overall
investment strategy for the Master Trust investments, including the broad
guidelines under which they are managed. The Finance Committee consists of four
members of the Xerox Corporation Board of Directors, none of whom are officers
of Xerox Corporation. The Xerox Corporate Treasurer chairs the Fiduciary
Investment Review Committee, which is composed of corporate officers who oversee
the management of the funds on a regular basis. As of October 26, 2001, Xerox
retained General Motors Asset Management and its affiliates to provide
investment services to the Plan, including investment management, asset
allocation, research, and the selection, evaluation, and monitoring of
investment managers.
During 2001, the Master Trust's investments (including investments bought, sold,
as well as held during the year) appreciated (depreciated) in value by
($587,297) (in thousands) as follows:
December 31, 2001
Investments at quoted market value:
Short-term and fixed income investments $ 58,934
Xerox common stock 182,131
Other equity investments (760,270)
Investments at estimated fair value:
Interest in real estate trusts (311)
Interest in other investments (67,781)
$(587,297)
(6) Subsequent Event
In April 2002, pursuant to an order by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
the Plan notified participants that the Xerox Stock Fund was restricted from
additional contributions or transfers to the fund until certain filing
requirements were met by the plan sponsor. During the period of restriction,
participants' contributions to this fund were diverted to the "Balanced Fund -
More Stocks" which contributions, at the direction of participants, could be
transferred to other funds (other than the Xerox Stock Fund). These restrictions
did not apply to transfers out of the fund or changes in investment elections by
the participants and the restrictions were removed once the sponsor satisfied
the filing requirements in early July 2002. At that time, the prior elections
for salary deductions and loan repayments directed to the Xerox Stock Fund were
reinstated, unless participants had altered their investment elections during
the time that such restrictions were in effect, and elective transfers into the
Xerox Stock Fund once again became available.

Independent Auditors' Report
To the Participants and Administrator of
Xerox Corporation Savings Plan
(formerly Xerox Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings Plan):
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of Xerox Corporation Savings Plan (formerly Xerox Corporation Profit Sharing and
Savings Plan) (the "Plan") at December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the changes in net
assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2001 in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held
at end of year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information
required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This
supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The
supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.
As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Plan has restated the
accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits as of December 31,
2000, previously audited by other independent accountants, to correct a
misallocation of Master Trust investments between the Xerox Corporation Savings
Plan (formerly Xerox Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings Plan) and The Profit
Sharing Plan of Xerox Corporation and The Xerographic Division, Union of
Needletrades, Industrial and Textile Employees, A.F.L. - C.I.O. - C.L.C.
