RE:  Applicability of Intercompany Agreement
     to NCR Corporation

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         This  letter is  written in  response  to the  request of AT&T  Capital
Corporation  ("Capital)  to NCR  Corporation  ("NCR")  that NCR confirm  that it
agrees to be a party to the applicable terms of the Intercompany  Agreement (the
"Intercompany Agreement") dated as of June 25, 1993 between AT&T Corp. (formerly
named American Telephone and Telegraph Company) ("AT&T") and Capital,  following
the  proposed  spin-off  of  AT&T's  interest  in NCR to its  stockholders  (the
"Distribution").

         NCR agrees that, following the Distribution, it will be a party to, and
will be bound by and have the  benefits  of,  the  following  provisions  of the
Intercompany  Agreement as and to the extent it is currently bound thereunder as
an AT&T Entity:  Articles I, III, IV, V (to the extent, with respect to Articles
III,  IV and V,  that  any  portion  of the  Lease  Finance  Portfolio,  the NCR
Portfolio and the SLG  Portfolio (as such terms are defined in the  Intercompany
Agreement)   administered  by  Capital  under  the  Intercompany  Agreement  are
transferred to NCR or any of its  Subsidiaries),  VII, XI, XII, XIII, XIV and XV
(pursuant to which NCR will guarantee the obligations of its  Subsidiaries)  and
Sections 6.2 (only until the Distribution, in the case of such Section 6.2), 6.3
and 9.2. It is  understood  that the  provisions  of Articles II, VIII and X and
Section 6.1 of the  Intercompany  Agreement  do not apply to NCR and will not be
binding on NCR following the Distribution.  In addition, Capital agrees (for the
benefit of AT&T as well as NCR) that,  although  Section 15.1 shall  survive the
Distribution  (including with respect to NCR and its  Subsidiaries  prior to the
Distribution),  following the Distribution NCR will no longer be deemed to be an
AT&T Entity within the meaning of the Intercompany Agreement, and AT&T will have
no  liability to Capital for  obligations  of NCR and its  Subsidiaries  arising
after the Distribution.

         Except as set forth  herein,  this letter shall not  augment,  limit or
otherwise  affect  the  rights  or  obligations  (including  without  limitation
termination rights) of the parties under the Intercompany Agreement.

         If you are in agreement  with the  foregoing,  please sign in the space
provided  below,  whereupon  this letter  will  constitute  a binding  agreement
between NCR and Capital.

                                            Yours sincerely,


                                            NCR Corporation
