Zurich Financial Services Group and CSC Sign New IT Services Contract in Europe and North America

ZURICH, Switzerland and FALLS CHURCH, Virginia, November 25
(ots/PRNewswire) --

CSC (NYSE: CSC) announced today that it has signed a
ten-and-a-half year master service agreement with Zurich Financial
Services Group (Zurich) for data center and information technology
(IT) infrastructure managed services. The master service agreement
provides the framework for country specific agreements to be
subsequently entered into by the local entities of each party. The
master service agreement will become effective upon the signing of
the first country specific agreement. The contract covers global data
center centralization and server virtualization and is designed to
transform Zurich's existing data center environment into a fully
modernized, flexible and highly virtualized operation.

The potential total contract value is estimated to be up to
US$2.9 billion assuming the successful negotiation of all anticipated
country specific agreements and the provision of the full scope of
services in all the planned countries over the initial ten-and-a-half
year term. Services are expected to commence under the master service
agreement and one or more country specific agreements in the first
half of 2010. All of the agreements are subject to regulatory and
other approvals and notifications, including consultation of relevant
workers councils.

Under the terms of the agreement, depending on the country
specific agreements entered into, up to approximately 1,000 Zurich
employees will potentially transition to CSC during the first half of
2010. The relationship between Zurich and CSC began in July 2004 when
the companies signed a seven-year, US$1.3 billion applications
outsourcing contract. In 2008, the scope of work expanded to include
desktop services in Europe and North America.
