 ** The per-share reported earnings attributable to Class E common stock of
$0.89 equals the sum of the separate computations of each of the first two
quarters, consistent with the requirements for calculating earnings per share
based on EDS earnings and the Class E denominator.  The six month calculation
shown above (based on 1995 weighted average outstanding Class E shares for the
period) requires an adjustment of ($0.01) due to the significant differences
in the average number of shares outstanding in each quarter resulting from the
Class E stock contribution to the U.S. hourly pension plan.

Note:  The difference between fully diluted and primary earnings per share is
immaterial.

 * The assumed conversion of preference stock and exercise of stock options
   reflected by these adjustments has no effect on Class E or Class H common
   stock earnings per share, because to the extent that shares of Class E or
   Class H common stock deemed to be outstanding would increase, such
   increased shares would also increase the numerator of the fraction used to
   determine Available Separate Consolidated Net Income.
