Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Participants and Administrator of
Xerox Corporation Savings Plan
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets available for benefits and the related statement of changes in assets available for benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the assets available for benefits of Xerox Corporation Savings Plan (the Plan) at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the changes in assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards 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 Labors Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plans 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.

1. | Description of the Plan |
The following description of the Xerox Corporation Savings Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) of 1974. Participants should refer to the summary plan description and the plan document for a more complete description of the Plans provisions.
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 Plan upon date of hire.
Administration
The Plan Administrator Committee is appointed by the Vice President of Human Resources and 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. Aon Hewitt was the record keeper of the Plan through December 31, 2012.
Contributions
Subject to limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code (the Code), eligible employees may contribute to the Plan up to 80% of pay (as defined in the Plan document) through a combination of before-tax and after-tax payroll deductions. Participants who are at least age 50 by the end of the Plan year may make an additional catch-up contribution up to $5,500. Participants direct the investment of their contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan.
For participants whose employment commencement date was prior to January 1, 2005, the Company matched 25% of employee before tax savings contributions (up to 6%). For participants whose employment commencement date was on or after January 1, 2005, the Company matched 50% of employee before tax savings contributions (up to 6%).
To be eligible to receive the matching Company contribution, the participant must be actively employed on the last business day of the quarter (except by reason of death, retirement, approved leave of absence, disability or layoff) in which the contribution is made by the Company.
Vesting of Benefits
Participants are vested immediately in employee and employer contributions and actual earnings thereon.
Payment of Benefits
Upon termination of service, a participant may elect to defer receipt of benefits or receive a lump-sum amount equal to the value of his or her account. Participants who are retiree eligible (at least 55 years of age with at least 10 years of service) when service is terminated can receive installments.
Investment Options
Plan participants are able to direct the investment of their Plan holdings (employer and employee contributions) into various investment options as offered under the Plan on a daily basis. The investment options consist of 10 Lifecycle Funds, 15 Focused Strategy Funds that include passively and actively managed options, and the Company stock fund.

Xerox Corporation Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2012 and 2011
Effective May 30, 2012 the following changes were made to the Plan:
| The Income Fund was replaced with a Money Market Fund. |
| An Active Short Term Bond option was added to the investment options. |
| An Active Global Bond Fund was added to the investment options. |
Participant Loans Receivable
Participants are permitted to borrow from their accounts subject to limitations set forth in the Plan document. The loans are generally payable up to 4.5 years, except for loans to secure a private residence which can be payable up to 14.5 years and bear interest at an interest rate equal to the Citibank commercial prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal in effect on the 15th day of the month prior to the first day of the quarter to which it is to apply, plus 1% as set forth on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 by the Plan administrator. Principal and interest payments on the loans are re-deposited into the participants accounts, primarily made through payroll deductions, based on their current investment allocation elections. Participants may not have more than five loans outstanding at any one time and the balance of outstanding loans for any one individual cannot exceed $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. Interest rates for loans ranged from 4.25% to 10.5% at December 31, 2012 and 4.25% to 9.25% at December 31, 2011, with loans maturing at various dates through 2027.
Participant Accounts
Each participant account is credited with the participants contributions, the Companys contributions and an allocation of Plan earnings (losses). Plan earnings (losses) are allocated based on account balances by investment option. Expenses payable by the Plan are charged to participant accounts.
Plan Termination
The Plan was established with the expectation that it will continue indefinitely, however, the Company reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan.
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Benefit Payments
Benefit payments are recorded when paid.
Participant Loans Receivable
Loans receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. Delinquent participant loans are reclassified as distributions based upon the terms of the plan document.
Contributions
Employee contributions are recorded when withheld from participants pay. Employer contributions are recorded on a quarterly basis.
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 and liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Xerox Corporation Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2012 and 2011
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 Plans interest in the Master Trust is based on the beginning of year value of the Plans interest in the trust, plus actual contributions and investment income (loss) based on participant account balances, less actual distributions and allocated administrative expenses. For financial reporting purposes, income on Plan assets and any realized or unrealized gains or losses on such assets and expenses in the Master Trust are allocated to the Plan based on participant account balances.
The Master Trust holds assets for other Company-sponsored plans, some of which may be defined contribution plans and some defined benefit plans. Because the Plans interest in the Master Trust is based on participant investment options, there are certain Master Trust investments in which the Plan does not invest.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications were made to the prior year financial statements to conform to current year presentation.
Valuation of Investments and Income Recognition
The Plans investment in the Master Trust is recorded at an amount equal to the Plans interest in the underlying investments of the Master Trust. Investments of the Master Trust are stated at fair value. Shares of registered investment company funds are valued at the net asset value as reported by the fund managers at year-end. Common and preferred stock are stated at fair value based on published market closing prices. Fixed income investments are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by Company-approved independent pricing services. These services determine valuations for normal institutional-size trading units of such securities using valuation models or matrix pricing, which incorporates yield and/or price with respect to bonds that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date and quotations from security dealers to determine current value. If these valuations are deemed to be either not reliable or not readily available, the fair value will be determined in good faith by the Company. The fair value of the common collective trusts are valued at the net asset value on the last business day of the year. Limited partnerships including real estate trusts, are valued at estimated fair value based on fair value as reported in their audited financial statements, as well as information received from the investment advisor. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
As described by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 946-210-45 through 946-210-55 Reporting of Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contacts, investments relating to fully benefit responsive investment contracts held by a defined-contribution plan are to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement criteria for that portion of the net assets available for benefits of a defined-contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan. As required by the ASC, the statements of assets available for benefits present the fair value of the Master Trusts investment in the Stable Value Option (Note 6) and the adjustment from fair value to contract value. The statement of changes in assets available for benefits is prepared on a contract value basis.

December 31, 2012 and 2011
Administrative Expenses
Certain administrative expenses, such as Trustee, record keeping, and investment manager fees are paid by the Master Trust and are netted against Master Trust investment income (loss). Expenses paid by the Plan include legal and audit fees. Certain other administrative expenses are paid by the Company.
Risks and Uncertainties
Investments are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate and market risk. Due to the 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 values of investments in the near term could materially affect the amount reported in the statements of assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in assets available for benefits.
The Plan invests a portion of its assets in securities with contractual cash flows, such as asset backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and commercial mortgage backed securities. The value, liquidity, and related income of these securities are sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including real estate value, delinquencies and/or defaults and may be adversely affected by shifts in the markets perception of the issuers, including the issuers creditworthiness. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage related securities may expose the plan to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of the principal.
The Plan also invests in foreign securities. Investing in foreign securities may include certain risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in U.S. securities, such as fluctuating currency values and changing local and regional economic, political and social conditions, which may result in greater market volatility. In addition, certain foreign securities may not be as liquid as U.S. securities.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04 Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 is intended to improve comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The amendments are of two types: (i) those that clarify the Boards intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and (ii) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This update changed certain fair value measurements. We adopted this update prospectively effective for our fiscal beginning January 1, 2012. This update did not have a material effect on Plans financial statements.
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11 Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities that requires additional information regarding financial instruments and derivatives instruments that are offset or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendment is effective for the Plan on January 1, 2013. Plan management does not anticipate that the adoption of the amendment will have a material effect on the Plans financial statements.
3. | Federal Income Taxes |
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated November 12, 2009, covering Plan amendments adopted through December 1, 2009, 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. The Plan administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.

Xerox Corporation Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2012 and 2011
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2012, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The plan administrator believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2009.
4. | Master Trust |
As discussed in Note 2, the Plan participates in the Master Trust. The Trustee holds the Master Trusts investment assets, provides administrative functions for each of the Plans participating in the Master Trust, and executes investment transactions as directed by participants.
The following Xerox employee benefit plans represent the following percentages in the net assets of the Master Trust as of December 31:

5. | Fair Value Measurement |
ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a market-based framework hierarchy for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements in the footnotes to the financial statements. ASC 820 is applicable whenever another accounting pronouncement requires or permits assets and liabilities to be measured at fair value.
In accordance with ASC 820, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market of the asset.
ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy based on transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability:
Level 1: | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. | |
Level 2: | Prices determined using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that other market participants would use in valuing a portfolio instrument. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk and others. | |
Level 3: | Prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable (for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period), unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs reflect the Plan Administrators own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing a portfolio instrument, and would be based on the best information available. |
A financial instruments categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
11
Xerox Corporation Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2012 and 2011
Our primary Level 3 assets are Real Estate and Private Equity/Venture Capital investments. The fair value of our real estate investment funds are based on the Net Asset Value (NAV) of our ownership interest in the funds. NAV information is received from the investment advisers and is primarily derived from third-party real estate appraisals for the properties owned. The fair value for our private equity/venture capital partnership investments are based on our share of the estimated fair values for the underlying investments held by these partnerships as reported in their audited financial statements. The valuation techniques and inputs for our Level 3 assets have been consistently applied for all periods presented. The investment advisers are selected by the Xerox Retirement Investment Committee (XRIC), (see page 10). The authority for monitoring the valuation process of all investments is delegated by the XRIC to the Chief Investment Officer to whom the Xerox Trust Investment group reports. The Trust Investment group meets with investment advisers and performs quarterly reviews of the funds fair value measurements with investment advisers comparing those valuations to similar funds valuations outside of the Master Trust. Any changes in the fair value measurements are followed up and brought to the XRICs attention at their quarterly meetings.

Instead, distributions are received through the liquidation of the underlying assets of the funds. It is estimated that the underlying assets will be liquidated over the next 1 to 6 years. Unfunded commitments of $42.5M remain on seven of the funds. |
4 | This category includes 15 investments in domestic and international real estate funds. The fair value of these investments is estimated using the Net Assets Value (NAV) of the Trusts ownership interest in partners capital. The valuation inputs of these investments are derived from third party appraisals. These investments can never be redeemed during the life of the funds. Distributions from each fund will be received as the underlying investments if the funds are liquidated over the next 1 to 7 years. Unfunded commitments of $4.9M remain in eleven of the funds. |

6. | Stable Value Fund (Income Fund) Option |
One of the participant directed investment options within the Master Trust was a stable value investment option (Income Fund) in which the Master Trust invested in investment grade fixed-income securities along with a series of investment contracts (Wrap Contracts) issued by insurance companies ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company, Pacific Life Insurance Company, Monumental Life Insurance Company and Prudential Insurance Company of America (Wrap Issuers). The underlying investments wrapped by the Wrap Contracts were invested in a series of broadly diversified bond portfolios with short- to intermediate-term bonds that include U.S. dollar denominated corporate bonds, U.S. dollar denominated government/agency securities, mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities, money market instruments and other fixed income securities. Under the Wrap Contracts, the Wrap Issuers allowed maintenance of the Income Fund for participant reporting purposes at values reflecting principal plus credited interest. The net crediting rate of the Wrap Contracts could not be set below zero, so the contract value at least equaled the initial investment value of the investments constituting wrapped assets minus any redemptions from the Wrap Contracts. The net crediting rate generally was reset monthly. Assets not covered by the Wrap Contracts were generally invested in money market accounts and cash equivalents to provide necessary liquidity for participant withdrawals and exchanges. The periodical reset of the net crediting rate was affected by many factors, including but not limited to the investment performance of the wrapped assets, purchases and redemptions by participants, and changes in Income Fund investment strategies or procedures. The net crediting rate was influenced by the relationship of the fair value of the wrapped assets to the contract value of those wrapped assets. In calculating the net crediting rate, the ratio between the fair value and the contract value was generally amortized over the effective duration of the underlying investment. If the fair value of the wrapped assets was higher than their contract value, the net crediting rate will ordinarily be higher than the yield of the wrapped assets. Conversely, if the fair value of the wrapped assets was lower than their contract value, the net crediting rate would ordinarily be lower than the yield of the wrapped assets. Generally, the fair values of the wrapped assets moved in the opposite direction of interest rates.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2012 and 2011
The Income Fund and the Wrap Contracts were designed to pay participant-initiated transactions allowed by the Plan (typically this would include withdrawals for benefits, loans, or transfers to non-competing investment options within the Plan) at contract value, which was the participants original investment minus redemptions plus accumulated interest based on the above mentioned crediting rates. However, the Wrap Issuers might limit the ability to transact at contract value upon the occurrence of certain events. These events included:
| Merger, consolidation, sale of assets or other events (e.g., spin-offs or restructurings) within the control of a plan or a plan sponsor which resulted in redemptions in excess of the threshold established by the Wrap Contracts. |
| A mass layoff or early retirement incentive program or the filing of a petition in bankruptcy, which results in redemptions in excess of the threshold established by the Wrap Contracts. |
Under certain conditions, the Wrap Issuer retained the right to terminate the contract at fair value. Reasons for termination include:
| The Plan was disqualified by the Internal Revenue Service. |
| The Plan was terminated and its assets distributed to the participants. |
| The Income Fund ceased to meet its material obligations under the contract (such as a failure to comply with the investment guidelines or the addition of a competing investment option by a plan, etc.) and such breach was not cured within 30 days after notice. |
| The Income Fund assigned its interest in the contract without permission. |
| Upon investment manager termination, a new manager acceptable to the Wrap Issuers was not appointed within 30 days. |
| The Income Fund changed the underlying investment guidelines without the Wrap Issuers consent. |
| Investment discretion was granted to anyone except the manager or a sub-advisor appointed by the manager and this continued for 30 days after notice. |
| The Income Fund engaged in fraud or deceit relating to the Wrap Contract. |
| The Income Fund made any misrepresentation of material facts relating to the Wrap Contract. |

The Wrap Contracts contained net withdrawal limits applicable solely to the Plan, whereby once net withdrawals exceeded a certain threshold, the Wrap Contracts reserved the right to make benefit payments at fair or market value instead of contract value.
There was no guarantee as to the future financial condition of a Wrap Issuer. The Wrap Issuers ability to meet its contractual obligations under the respective Wrap Contracts might be affected by future economic and regulatory developments in the insurance industries.
Effective February 1, 2011, the Plans entered into new Wrap Contracts. Individual contracts were executed with ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company, Pacific Life Insurance Company, Monumental Life Insurance Company and Prudential Insurance Company of America. Additional sub-advisors were also added to the Income Fund on February 1, 2011. The inclusion of a fourth wrap provider and additional underlying sub-advisors has allowed for the implementation of more conservative investment guidelines applicable to the Income Fund.
Effective May 30, 2012 the Income Fund was replaced with a Money Market Fund.
7. | Derivative Policy |
The Master Trust may enter into contractual arrangements (derivatives) in carrying out its investment strategy, and is limited to the use of derivatives allowed by the Investment Policy Statement, principally to: (1) hedge a portion of the Master Trusts portfolio to limit or minimize exposure to certain risks, (2) gain an exposure to a market more rapidly or less expensively than could be accomplished through the use of the cash markets, and (3) reduce the cost of structuring the portfolio or capture value disparities between financial instruments. The Master Trust may utilize both exchange traded investment instruments such as equity and fixed income futures and options on fixed income futures, forward currency contracts, interest rate swaps, credit default swaps, swaptions and options. When engaging in forward currency contracts, there is exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to these transactions. The Master Trust manages this exposure through credit approvals and limited monitoring procedures. Procedures are in place to regularly monitor and report market and counterparty credit risks associated with these instruments. During the year ended December 31, 2012, derivatives were used only in the defined benefit plans, during the year ended December 31, 2011, derivatives were used in both the defined benefit and defined contribution plans of the Master Trust.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies associated with the Master Trusts use of derivatives.
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
Forward currency contracts are generally utilized to hedge a portion of the currency exposure that results from the Master Trusts holdings of equity and fixed income securities denominated in foreign currencies.
Forward currency contracts are generally marked-to-market at the prevailing forward exchange rate of the underlying currencies and the difference between contract value and market value is recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in Master Trust net assets. When the forward currency contract is closed, the Master Trust transfers the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) to a realized gain (loss) equal to the change in the value of the forward exchange contract when it was opened and the value at the time it was closed or offset. Sales and purchases of forward currency contracts having the same settlement date and broker are offset and any gain (loss) is realized on the date of offset.
Certain risks may arise upon entering into a forward currency contract from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Additionally, when utilizing forward currency contracts to hedge, the Master Trust gives up the opportunity to profit from favorable exchange rate movements during the term of the contract. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the value of currencies under forward currency contracts represents less than 1% of total investments.

Future Contracts
The Master Trust used equity index and fixed income futures contracts to manage exposure to the market. Buying futures tends to increase the Master Trusts exposure to the underlying instrument. Selling futures tends to decrease the Master Trusts exposure to the underlying instrument held or hedge the fair value of other fund investments. The Master Trust does not employ leverage in its use of derivatives. Futures contracts are valued at the last settlement price at the end of each day on the exchange upon which they are traded. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Master Trust is required to deposit either in cash or securities an amount (initial margin) equal to a certain percentage of the nominal value of the contract. Pursuant to the futures contract, the Master Trust agrees to receive from, or pay to, the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the futures contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin which are generally settled daily and are included in the unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts. The Master Trust will record a variation margin receivable or payable in the Master Trust net assets for variation margins which have not yet been paid at the end of the year.
Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, credit and market risks. The Master Trust enters into futures contracts on exchanges where the exchange acts as the counterparty to the transaction. Thus, credit risk on such transactions is limited to the failure of the exchange. The daily settlement on the futures contracts serves to greatly reduce credit risk. Losses in value may arise from changes in the value of the underlying instruments or if there is an illiquid secondary market for the contracts. In addition, there is the risk that there may not be an exact correlation between a futures contract and the underlying index or security. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the unrealized gain/loss of future contracts represents less than 1% of total investments.

Interest Rate and Credit Default Swaps and Swaptions
The Master Trust may invest in interest rate swap contracts. The Master Trust uses interest rate swap contracts to manage its exposure to interest rates. Interest rate swap contracts typically represent the exchange between the Master Trust and a counterparty of respective commitments to make variable rate and fixed rate payments with respect to a notional amount of principal. Such contracts have a term coincident with the maturity date of the Master Trust, with settlement scheduled for the termination date of the contract.
During the period that the swap contract is open, the contract is marked-to-market as the net amount due to or from the Master Trust in accordance with the terms of the contract based on the closing level of the relevant index or security and interest accrual through valuation date. Swaps are marked to market daily based upon values from third party vendors or quotations from market makers to the extent available and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits. Periodic cash settlements on interest rate swaps are recorded as realized gains or losses. Interest rate swap contracts may include extended effective dates.
Entering into a swap contract involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and/or interest rate risk in excess of the amounts reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Notional principal amounts are used to express the extent of involvement in the transactions, but are not delivered under the contracts. Accordingly, credit risk is limited to any amounts receivable from the counterparty. To reduce credit risk from potential counterparty default, the Master Trust enters into swap contracts with counterparties whose creditworthiness has been approved by the Company. The Master Trust bears the market risk arising from any change in index or security values or interest rates. Under certain circumstances, the Master Trust may be required to pledge collateral to or may receive collateral from swap counterparties.
The Master Trusts International Swap and Derivatives Association Master Agreements (ISDA Agreements), which are separately negotiated with each counterparty, may contain provisions allowing, absent other considerations, a counterparty to exercise rights, to the extent not otherwise waived, against the Master Trust in the event the Master Trusts net assets decline over a period of time by a predetermined percentage or decrease below a predetermined floor amount. The ISDA Agreements also contain certain provisions, absent other conditions, for the Master Trust to exercise rights, to the extent not otherwise waived, against counterparties, such as a decline in a counterpartys credit rating below a specified level. Such rights for both the counterparty and the Master Trust often include the ability to terminate (i.e., close out) open contracts at prices which may favor the counterparty, which could have an adverse affect to the Master Trust. The ISDA Agreements with certain counterparties allow the Master Trust and counterparty to offset certain derivative instruments receivables or payables with collateral posted to a segregated custody account.

Credit default swap contracts are agreements in which one party pays fixed periodic payments to a counterparty in consideration for a guarantee from the counterparty to make a specific payment should a specified negative credit event(s) take place. The Master Trust entered into credit default swap contracts to hedge the Master Trusts exposure on a debt security that it owns or in lieu of selling such debt security.
As the purchaser of a credit default swap contract, the Master Trust purchases protection by paying a periodic interest rate on the notional amount to the counterparty. The interest amount is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as a realized loss upon payment. If a credit event as specified in the contract occurs, the Master Trust may have the option either to deliver the reference obligation to the seller in exchange for a cash payment of its par amount, or to receive a net cash settlement equal to the par amount less an agreed-upon value of the reference obligation as of the date of the credit event. The difference between the value of the obligation or cash delivered and the notional amount received will be recorded as a realized gain (loss).

As the seller of a credit default swap contract, the Master Trust sells protection to a buyer and will generally receive a periodic interest rate on the notional amount. The interest amount is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as a realized gain upon receipt of the payment. If a credit event as specified in the contract occurs, the Master Trust may either be required to accept the reference obligation from the buyer in exchange for a cash payment of its notional amount, or to pay the buyer a net cash settlement equal to the notional amount less an agreed-upon value of the reference obligation as of the date of the credit event. The difference between the value of the obligation or cash received and the notional amount paid will be recorded as a realized gain (loss). The maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments the Master Trust could be required to make as the seller of protection under a credit default swap contract is equal to the notional amount of the reference obligation.
As a protection seller, the Master Trust bears the risk of loss from the credit events specified in the contract. Although specified events are contract specific, credit events are generally defined as bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, or repudiation/moratorium. For credit default swap contracts on credit indices, quoted market prices and resulting market values serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the reference entitys credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the contract. Credit default swap contracts are valued daily, and the change in value is recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the termination of the swap, at which time a realized gain (loss) is recorded.
Credit default swap contracts can involve greater risks than if a plan had invested in the reference obligation directly since, in addition to general market risks, credit default swaps are subject to counterparty credit risk, leverage risk, hedging risk, correlation risk and liquidity risk. The Master Trust will enter into credit default swap transactions only with counterparties that meet certain standards of creditworthiness.
At December 31, 2012, the Master Trust had pledged cash collateral of $400,000 and Government Securities of $484,149 to swap counterparties.

The Master Trust may write or purchase interest rate swaption agreements which are options to enter into a pre-defined swap agreement by some specified date in the future. The writer of the swaption becomes a counterparty to the swap if the buyer exercises. The interest rate swaption agreement will specify whether the buyer of the swaption will be a fixed rate receiver or a fixed rate payer upon exercise. Options on swap contracts are considered over-the-counter financial derivative instruments that derive their value from underlying asset prices, indices, reference rates, and other inputs or a combination of these factors. These contracts are normally valued on the basis of broker dealer quotations or by pricing service providers.
In 2012, total premiums received was $1,067,495.
At December 31, 2012, the Master Trust was in receipt of cash collateral of $19,775,000 from the broker for swaptions.
Options Contracts
The Master Trust may purchase and sell put and call options on securities. The Master Trust uses options to manage against changes in the market value of the Master Trusts investments, mitigate exposure to fluctuations in currency values, or interest rates, or protect the Master Trusts unrealized gains. In addition, the Master Trust may use options to facilitate investment transactions by protecting the Master Trust against a change in the market price of the investment, enhance potential gains, or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of securities or currency.
Exchange-traded options are valued using the National Best Bid and Offer (NBBO) close price. If the NBBO close price is not available, the NBBO bid (for long positions) or NBBO Ask (for short positions) will be used to value the option contract. Options traded over-the-counter are valued using a broker quotation or an internal valuation using an options pricing model such as Black-Scholes.

When the Master Trust writes an option, the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current fair value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Master Trust on the expiration date as realized gains from written options. The difference between the premium and the amount paid for a closing purchase, including brokerage commissions, is also recorded as a realized gain / (loss). When an instrument is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of an instrument acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the instrument sold.
Writing puts and buying calls may increase the Master Trusts exposure to changes in the value of the underlying instrument. Buying puts and writing calls may decrease the Master Trusts exposure to such changes. Losses may arise when buying and selling options if there is an illiquid secondary market for the options, which may cause a party to receive less than would be received in a liquid market, or if the counterparties do not perform under the term of the options.

8. | Securities Lending |
The Master Trust is not restricted from lending securities to other qualified financial institutions, provided such loans are callable at any time and are at all times fully collateralized by cash (including both U.S. and foreign currency), cash equivalents or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies and the sovereign debt of foreign countries. The portfolios may bear the risk of delay in recovery of, or even of rights in, the securities loaned should the borrower of the securities fail financially. Consequently, loans of portfolio securities will only be made to firms deemed by the sub advisors to be creditworthy. The portfolios receive compensation for lending their securities either in the form of fees or by retaining a portion of interest on the investment of any cash received as collateral. Cash collateral, if any, is invested in the State Street Quality A Short Term Investment Fund. There were no securities loaned by Master Trust at December 31, 2012.
9. | Related Party Transactions |
The Plan, along with the Savings Plan of Xerox Corporation and the Xerographic Division, Rochester Regional Joint Board on Behalf of Itself and Other Regional Joint Boards, invest in a unitized stock fund, The Xerox Stock Fund (the Fund), which is primarily comprised of Xerox Corporation common shares. The unit values of the Fund are recorded and maintained by the Trustee. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Plans purchased common shares in the Fund in the approximate amount of $12,511,000, sold common shares in the Fund in the approximate amount of $28,405,000, and had net depreciation in the Fund of approximately $14,876,000. The total value of the Plans investment in the Fund was approximately $92,991,000 and $123,761,000 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. During 2012, dividends paid on Xerox Corporation common shares amounted to $2,378,000. These transactions, as well as participant loans, qualify as party-in-interest transactions. Furthermore, the Plan pays administrative expenses related to salaries of Xerox employees responsible for plan administration. In addition, certain funds are managed by an affiliate of the Trustee and the investment manager and therefore, qualify as party-in-interest transactions. The Plan also accepts rollovers from affiliated plans, the Xerox Corporation Retirement Income Guarantee Plans (RIGP) and the Xerox Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), and these transactions qualify as party-in-interest. During the year ended December 31, 2012 there was one transfer of $8,000 from the Savings Plan of Xerox Corporation and the Xerographic Division, Rochester Regional Joint Board on Behalf of Itself and Other Regional Joint Boards to the Plan.

10. | Commitments and Contingencies |
In the normal course of business, the Plan enters into agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Plans maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Plan that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Plan expects the risk of loss to be remote.
The Master Trust is committed to invest $858,190,602 in certain private equity and real estate funds, of which $810,766,930 has been contributed as of December 31, 2012.
11. | Litigation |
Carlson v. Xerox Corporation, et al.
The Plan is a member of the plaintiff class in a consolidated securities law action (consisting of 21 cases) that was pending in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut against the Company, KPMG and Paul A. Allaire, G. Richard Thoman, Anne M. Mulcahy, Barry D. Romeril, Gregory Tayler and Philip Fishbach. Plaintiffs purported to bring this case as a class action on behalf of a class consisting of all persons and/or entities, including the Plan, who purchased Xerox common stock and/or bonds during the period between February 17, 1998 through June 28, 2002 and who were purportedly damaged thereby (Class). Two claims were asserted: one alleging that each of the Company, KPMG, and the individual defendants violated Section 10(b) of the 1934 Act and SEC Rule 10b-5 there under; and the other alleging that the individual defendants are also liable as controlling persons of the Company pursuant to Section 20(a) of the 1934 Act. On January 15, 2009, the Court entered an order and final judgment approving the settlement, awarding attorneys fees and expenses, and dismissing the action with prejudice.
In December, 2009, the Master Trust received $29.4 million relating to its portion of the settlement to be allocated between the participating plans in the Master Trust. The distribution of the settlement was completed in January, 2010.
On February 29, 2012, lead plaintiffs filed an unopposed motion seeking the Courts approval for a re-distribution of residual class settlement funds, less costs of administration. On September 27, 2012, the Court issued an order permitting the plaintiffs to re-distribute the residual amount remaining in the settlement fund. In December 2012 the Master Trust received $40,515 relating to its portion of the residual amount.
12. | Subsequent Events |
Effective January 1, 2013, the Company will provide an increased matching contribution of 3% (100% up to 3% of eligible pay that is saved in the plan). This new match will be applicable to all employees eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan (including both RIGP and non RIGP eligible), regardless of hire date.
Effective January 1, 2013 the Plans record keeper changed from Aon Hewitt to Xerox Business Services.
For a participant who attains age seventy and one-half after December 31, 2011, and has terminated employment, Plan benefits will be distributed by April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year of attainment of age seventy and one-half, in an amount equal to the Required Minimum Distribution and the remainder of the participants benefits under the Plan shall be entirely distributed by the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year of attainment of age seventy and one-half. This will not apply to a participant who has elected payment in monthly and quarterly installments from the Plan.
