Subject Company: Affiliated Computer Services, Inc.
Commission File No.: 1-12665
January 11, 2010
All: As you are aware, our pending acquisition of Affiliated Computer Services is significant for our company today and well into the future. Many of you are closely involved with the transition and synergy initiatives. Thanks to your exceptional leadership, we’re making great progress - and we’re very close to completing the acquisition. But, we have one pivotal step to go: securing a positive vote from our shareholders and the ACS shareholders. The shareholder meetings for both companies are on February 5. As a Xerox shareholder, YOUR vote counts. It helps us achieve both the quorum and majority needed to receive shareholder approval.
So, if you’ve yet to vote, please remember to do so TODAY. I encourage you to support the acquisition by voting “FOR” each of the proposals on the proxy card(s) that have previously been sent to you. You can vote your shares - via all the proxy cards you receive - online, by phone, or by mail.
My thanks to each of you who have already submitted your proxy votes. Please encourage members of your management team to do the same.
I remain very confident that the acquisition of ACS is the single best way to solidify our leadership role in our industry, and the best and fastest way to increase value for our customers and for our shareholders. By doing so, we’re able to create and deliver more value for our people as well. Your leadership - and your affirmative vote - make all the difference!
Many thanks -
Ursula
