WHEREAS:

(A) CSC, acting through its direct and indirect Subsidiaries, currently conducts the CSC Business and the CSRA Business;

(B) the Board of Directors of CSC (the “Board”) has determined that it is appropriate, desirable and in the best interests of CSC and its stockholders to separate CSC into two separate, publicly traded companies, one for each of (i) the CSC Business, which shall be owned and conducted, directly or indirectly, by CSC and (ii) the CSRA Business, which shall be owned and conducted, directly or indirectly, by CSRA;

(C) in order to effect such separation, the Board has determined that it is appropriate, desirable and in the best interests of CSC and its stockholders to undertake the Internal Reorganization and, following the completion of the Internal Reorganization, for CSC to distribute pro rata to the Record Holders, all of the issued and outstanding shares of CSRA Common Stock (the “Distribution”);

(D) it is the intention of the Parties that the Distribution qualify as a tax-free distribution (except to the extent of cash received in lieu of fractional shares) under Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”);

(E) it is the intention of the Parties that the contributions of CSRA Assets to, and the assumptions of CSRA Liabilities by, CSRA prior to the Distribution, together with the Distribution, qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of and subject to the premises and the mutual agreements, terms and conditions herein contained, the benefits to be derived therefrom and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and the sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

16

Exhibit 2.1

of such Party’s Group) to which the benefit of such Shared Contract inures in part, the Party for which such Shared Contract is, as applicable, a CSC Asset or CSRA Asset shall, and shall cause each of its respective Subsidiaries to, for a period ending on the earlier of twelve (12) months after the Distribution Date and the end of the term of such Shared Contract (without any extensions or renewals), take such other reasonable and permissible actions to cause such member of the CSRA Group or the CSC Group, as the case may be, to receive the benefit of that portion of each Shared Contract that relates to the CSRA Business or the CSC Business, as the case may be (in each case, to the extent so related) as if such Shared Contract had been assigned to (or amended to allow) a member of the applicable Group pursuant to this Section 2.3 and to bear the burden of the corresponding Liabilities (including any Liabilities that may arise by reason of such arrangement) as if such Liabilities had been assumed by a member of the applicable Group pursuant to this Section 2.3 and (B) the Party to which the benefit of such Shared Contract inures in part shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into a separate contract pursuant to which it procures such rights and obligations as are necessary such that it no longer needs to avail itself of the arrangements provided pursuant to this Section 2.3(a); provided that, other than in the event of willful breach or misconduct, knowing violation of Law, fraud, willful misrepresentation, or gross negligence of the Party for which such Shared Contract is, as applicable, a CSC Asset or CSRA Asset, such Party, and such Party’s applicable Subsidiaries shall not be liable for any actions or omissions taken in accordance with clause (y) of this Section 2.3(a).

(b) Each of CSC and CSRA shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, (i) treat for all Income Tax purposes the portion of each Shared Contract inuring to the CSC Business or CSRA Business, as the case may be, as Assets owned by, and/or Liabilities of, as applicable, such Party as of the Effective Time and (ii) neither report nor take any Income Tax position (on a Tax Return or otherwise) inconsistent with such treatment (unless required by a change in applicable Tax Law or good faith resolution of a Tax Contest relating to Income Taxes).

2.4 Intercompany Accounts; Cash Management

(a) Except as set forth in Section 7.1(b), all (i) intercompany receivables, payables and loans (other than receivables, payables and loans otherwise specifically provided for under this Agreement, under any Ancillary Agreement, and other than payables created or required hereby or by any Ancillary Agreement), if any, and (ii) intercompany balances, including in respect of any cash balances, any cash balances representing deposited checks or drafts or any cash held in any centralized cash management system between any member of the CSC Group, on the one hand, and any member of the CSRA Group, on the other hand, which exist and are reflected in the accounting records of the relevant Parties immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be settled prior to the Distribution, provided that any such intercompany balances that represent ordinary course trade payables on arm’s-length terms shall be converted into an ordinary trade payable (which shall survive the Effective Time, notwithstanding anything herein (including Section 7.1) to the contrary) as of the Effective Time. Each of the Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, take all actions and do all things reasonably necessary on its part, or such Subsidiaries’ part, under applicable Law or contractual obligations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by such agreement or agreements in respect of such settlements or capitalizations.

17

Exhibit 2.1

benefit of the Party entitled thereto (at the expense of the Party entitled thereto) and, promptly upon receipt by such Party of any such payment or reimbursement, such Party shall pay or shall cause the applicable member of its Group to pay over to the Party entitled thereto the amount of such payment or reimbursement without right of set-off.

2.5 Transfers Not Effected at or Prior to the Effective Time; Transfers Deemed Effective as of the Effective Time

(a) To the extent that any Transfers contemplated by this Section 2 shall not have been consummated at or prior to the Effective Time, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such Transfers as promptly following the Effective Time as shall be practicable. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the Transfer of any Assets or the Assumption of any Liabilities which by their terms or operation of Law cannot be Transferred; provided, however, that the Parties and their respective Subsidiaries shall cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to obtain, in accordance with applicable Law, any necessary Consents or Governmental Approvals for the Transfer of all Assets and Assumption of all Liabilities to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law contemplated to be Transferred and assumed pursuant to this Section 2. In the event that any such Transfer of Assets or Assumption of Liabilities has not been consummated, from and after the Effective Time (i) the Party retaining such Asset shall thereafter hold such Asset in trust for the use and benefit of the Party entitled thereto (at the expense of the Party entitled thereto) and (ii) the Party intended to assume such Liability shall, or shall cause the applicable member of its Group to, pay or reimburse the Party retaining such Liability for all amounts paid or incurred in connection with the retention of such Liability. In addition, the Party retaining such Asset or Liability shall, insofar as reasonably possible and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, treat such Asset or Liability in the ordinary course of business in accordance with past practice and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the Party to which such Asset is to be Transferred or by the Party Assuming such Liability in order to place such Party, including but not limited to entering subcontracts for the performance of Contracts that have not transferred, insofar as reasonably possible, in the same position as if such Asset or Liability had been Transferred or assumed as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Asset or Liability, including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion, control and command over such Asset or Liability, are to inure from and after the Effective Time to the member or members of the CSC Group or the CSRA Group entitled to the receipt of such Asset or required to assume such Liability. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Parties agree that, as of the Effective Time, subject to Section 2.2(f), each Party shall be deemed to have acquired complete and sole beneficial ownership over all of the Assets, together with all rights, powers and privileges incident thereto, and shall be deemed to have assumed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement all of the Liabilities, and all duties, obligations and responsibilities incident thereto, which such Party is entitled to acquire or required to assume pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If and when the Consents, Governmental Approvals and/or conditions, the absence or non-satisfaction of which caused the deferral of Transfer of any Asset or deferral of the Assumption of any Liability, are obtained or satisfied, the Transfer, assignment, Assumption or novation of the applicable Asset or Liability shall be effected in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement and/or the applicable Ancillary Agreement, and shall, to the extent possible without the imposition of any undue cost on any Party, be deemed to be effective as of the Effective Time.

(c) Following the second anniversary of the Distribution Date, the Party retaining any Asset or Liability due to the deferral of the Transfer of such Asset or the deferral of the Assumption of such Liability shall not be

18

Exhibit 2.1

obligated, in connection with the foregoing, to expend any money unless the necessary funds are advanced, assumed, or agreed in advance to be reimbursed by the Party entitled to such Asset or the Person intended to be subject to such Liability, other than reasonable attorneys’ fees and recording or similar or other incidental fees, all of which shall be promptly reimbursed by the Party entitled to such Asset or the Person intended to be subject to such Liability.

(d) After the Effective Time, each Party (or any member of its Group) may receive mail, packages and other communications properly belonging to another Party (or any member of its Group). Accordingly, at all times after the Effective Time, each Party is hereby authorized to receive and open all mail, packages and other communications received by such Party that belongs to such other Party, and to the extent that they do not relate to the business of the receiving Party, the receiving Party shall promptly deliver such mail, packages or other communications (or, in case the same also relates to the business of the receiving Party or another Party, copies thereof) to such other Party as provided for in Section 11.6. The provisions of this Section 2.5(d) are not intended to, and shall not, be deemed to constitute an authorization by any Party to permit the other to accept service of process on its behalf and no Party is or shall be deemed to be the agent of any other Party for service of process purposes.

For up to twelve (12) months following the Effective Time, in connection with Contracts that would otherwise be entered into by CSRA following the Effective Time that (a) are the continuation, extension, renewal, option exercise, follow-on, or work related to CSRA Contracts pending novation, transfer or assignment pursuant to Section 2.8 or (b) result from quotations, proposals or bids for new opportunities, in each case to the extent relating to the CSRA Business, including such Contracts that are subject to security-related accreditation or facility security clearance requirements to be eligible to bid or perform such Contracts (such Contracts set forth in clauses (a) and (b), collectively, the “Post Closing Contracts”), CSC or the applicable member of the CSC Group shall be, or shall continue to be, the contracting party for such Contracts until such time when, after CSRA shall have obtained the necessary novations, accreditations, clearances or assignments to enter into such Contracts and submit such bids, such Contracts shall have been Transferred to CSRA (such time, the “Post Closing Contracts Transfer Time”). In furtherance of the foregoing, CSRA and CSC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, (i) obtain such necessary clearances, (ii) effect the Transfer of any such Post Closing Contracts, including any Assets and Liabilities thereunder, to CSRA and (iii) procure the release of CSC from any obligations or Liabilities thereunder to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

2.10 DCAA/DCMA

(a) CSC and CSRA shall each use commercially reasonable efforts at CSRA’s cost and expense to reach a timely and reasonable settlement of CSC’s corporate office expense allocations, other indirect costs, Cost Accounting Standards violations, questioned costs, findings associated with the Statement of Condition and Recommendations (SOCARs) and expenses allocated to CSC Contracts or CSRA Contracts (collectively, “Indirect Rates”) for CSC’s open fiscal years from 2007 through the Distribution Date, which Indirect Rates have not been finally determined and settled prior to the Effective Time (the “Open Years”) with the Defense Contract Audit Agency, Defense Contract Management Agency, other Governmental Entities that may be conducting an audit or other authorized representatives of any such Governmental Entity (each, a “Audit Agency”). Subject to the provisions in subsection (c) of this Section 2.10, CSC shall be the party of record in settlement discussions with the applicable Audit Agency of Indirect Rates for Open Years; provided, however, that CSC will (i) not propose, agree or consent to, without CSRA’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), any determination, settlement or offer regarding such Indirect Rates; and (ii) promptly inform CSRA of the acceptance by the applicable Audit Agency of a final determination or settlement of Indirect Rates for Open Years previously agreed or consented to by CSRA. In connection with the settlement of Indirect Rates, each Party shall make available to the other Party all personnel and pertinent Information in such Party’s possession or under such Party’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the other Party.

(b) If either Party becomes aware of a material development that would affect Indirect Rates, such Party shall, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, inform the other Party of the status of and developments relating to such matter. CSC shall be responsible for scheduling meetings with the applicable Audit Agency that concern Indirect Rates relating to CSC Contracts. CSRA shall be responsible for scheduling meetings with the applicable Audit Agency that concern Indirect Rates relating to CSRA Contracts. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to jointly determine the appropriate party that shall be responsible for scheduling meetings with the applicable Audit Agency that involve Indirect Rate issues applicable to both Parties, including company-wide fringe pools and corporate home office allocations. If the parties are

22

Exhibit 2.1

unable to jointly determine which Party shall be responsible for scheduling meetings involving Indirect Rate issues applicable to both Parties, CSC shall be responsible for scheduling such meetings. Prior to a Party scheduling any meeting with an Audit Agency regarding Indirect Rates for Open Years, each Party shall cause appropriate personnel from such Party to discuss the timing and agenda for such meeting, and each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to include personnel from the other Party; provided, however, that if the applicable Audit Agency objects to having the other Party present with respect to Indirect Rate issues that concern only the requesting Party’s contracts, the requesting Party shall not be obligated to include personnel of the other Party but the requesting Party shall inform the other excluded Party of the discussions that occurred promptly following any such meeting. Each Party shall bear its own internal costs and expenses in connection with any matters involving Indirect Rates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, of the costs of salaries and benefits of its personnel engaged with respect to such matters). Costs and expenses of external legal counsel and other third-party advisors engaged by CSC in connection with the settlement of Indirect Rates shall be borne by the Parties in accordance with their respective Sharing Percentages.

(c) Upon settlement of Indirect Rates for Open Years, responsibility for the costs of any resulting credit or payment due to customers shall be borne by CSRA. If CSC makes any credit or payment to a customer that includes amounts payable by CSRA pursuant to this paragraph, CSC shall be entitled to reimbursement by CSRA promptly upon delivery to CSRA of evidence of such credit or payment.

(d) If, after the Effective Date, DCAA, DCMA, or another U.S. Government audit agency, such as an agency Inspector General, initiates an audit of a Transferred Contract and the issue of the audit relates to work performed by the other Party prior to the Effective Date, the parties agree to cooperate, to the extent required, in responding to such audit, including using reasonable commercial efforts to make documents and employees available for preparation of the audit response. Each Party shall bear its own internal costs and expenses in connection with preparation of the audit response.

2.11 Guarantees; Letters of Credit

(a) Except as otherwise specified in any Ancillary Agreement, at or prior to the Effective Time or as soon as practicable thereafter, each Party shall (with the reasonable cooperation of the applicable member of the other Party’s Group) use commercially reasonable efforts to have the applicable members of the other Party’s Group removed as guarantor of or obligor for any CSC or CSRA Liability (as applicable), including in respect of those guarantees and letters of credit set forth on Schedule 2.11(a), to the extent that they relate to CSC Liabilities or CSRA Liabilities (as applicable).

(b) At or prior to the Effective Time, to the extent required to obtain a release from a guaranty (a “Guaranty Release”) of any member of the other Party’s Group, each Party shall, as applicable, execute a guaranty agreement substantially in the form of the existing guaranty or such other form as is agreed to by the relevant parties to such guaranty agreement, except to the extent that such existing guaranty contains representations, covenants or other terms or provisions either (A) with which such Party would be reasonably unable to comply or (B) which would be reasonably expected to be breached.

(c) If either Party is unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required removal as set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 2.11, (i) such Party shall indemnify and hold harmless the member of the other Party’s Group that is guarantor or obligor thereunder for any Loss arising from or relating thereto (in accordance with the provisions of Section 7) and shall or shall cause another member of the its Group,

23

Exhibit 2.1

as agent or subcontractor for such guarantor or obligor, to pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such member of the other Party’s Group; and (ii) such Party agrees not to renew or extend the term of, increase its obligations under, or Transfer to a third party, any loan, guarantee, lease, contract or other obligation for which any member of the other Party’s Group is or may be liable without the prior written consent of the other Party or such member of the other Party’s Group, unless all obligations of such member of the other Party’s Group with respect thereto are thereupon terminated by documentation reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the other Party or such member of the other Party’s Group; provided, however, with respect to any CSRA Lease, in the event a Guaranty Release is not obtained and CSRA wishes to extend the term of such guaranteed lease, then CSRA shall have the option of extending the term if it provides such security to CSC as is reasonably satisfactory to the member of the CSC Group that is guarantor under such guaranteed lease.

2.12 Disclaimer of Representations and Warranties

EACH OF CSC (ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND EACH MEMBER OF THE CSC GROUP) AND CSRA (ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND EACH MEMBER OF THE CSRA GROUP) UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, IN ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT, NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENT OR DOCUMENT CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS OR OTHERWISE, IS REPRESENTING OR WARRANTING IN ANY WAY TO ANY PARTY HERETO AS TO THE ASSETS, BUSINESSES OR LIABILITIES CONTRIBUTED, TRANSFERRED OR ASSUMED AS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, AS TO ANY CONSENTS OR GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS REQUIRED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH, AS TO THE VALUE OR FREEDOM FROM ANY SECURITY INTERESTS, RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, ENCUMBRANCE OR LIEN, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR ANY OTHER MATTER CONCERNING, ANY ASSETS OF SUCH PARTY, OR AS TO THE ABSENCE OF ANY DEFENSES OR RIGHT OF SETOFF OR FREEDOM FROM COUNTERCLAIM WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR OTHER ASSET, INCLUDING ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, OF ANY PARTY, OR AS TO THE LEGAL SUFFICIENCY OF ANY CONTRIBUTION, ASSIGNMENT, DOCUMENT, CERTIFICATE OR INSTRUMENT DELIVERED HEREUNDER TO CONVEY TITLE TO ANY ASSET OR THING OF VALUE UPON THE EXECUTION, DELIVERY AND FILING HEREOF OR THEREOF.

(xiii) acquiring (whether by merger, consolidation, stock or asset purchase or other similar transaction) all or substantially all of the business of any Person twenty percent (20%) or less of whose revenues is derived from the CSRA Field within the Territory; provided, however, that, (A) within six (6) months after its acquisition, CSC or its Affiliates shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to sell the portion of the business of such Person which is then operating in the CSRA Field within the Territory, and (B) with respect to such portion, CSRA shall be given a first right of refusal to purchase such portion on the same terms and conditions as offered by CSC or its controlled Affiliates to any prospective purchaser; or

(xiv) marketing or selling its own products or services that are not in the CSRA Field within the Territory.

5.6 Tax Matters

(a) CSC and CSRA shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, use their reasonable best efforts to seek, as promptly as practical, the Tax Opinion.

(b) Prior to the Distribution Date, CSC and CSRA shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, terminate any tax sharing, indemnity, allocation or similar agreement primarily related to Taxes (other than the Tax Matters Agreement) between CSC and any of its Subsidiaries on the one hand and CSRA and its Subsidiaries on the other hand such that no party to any such agreement shall have any obligations or rights thereunder after the Distribution Date (other than the Tax Matters Agreement).

6. SHARED CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

6.1 Shared Contingent Liabilities

30

Exhibit 2.1

From and after the Effective Time, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Section 6 or the Tax Matters Agreement (with respect to Taxes) and without limiting the indemnification provisions of Section 7, CSC and CSRA shall each be responsible for (a) its Sharing Percentage of any Shared Contingent Liabilities pursuant to and in accordance with the relevant provisions of Section 7 and, without duplication, (b) its Sharing Percentage of any Specified Shared Expenses related to or arising out of any Shared Contingent Liability. Any amounts owed in respect of any Shared Contingent Liabilities other than Specified Shared Expenses (which are addressed pursuant to Section 5.2) shall be remitted promptly after the Party entitled to such amount provides an invoice (including reasonable supporting Information with respect thereto and a calculation of the amounts owed by each Party based on such Party’s Sharing Percentage) to the Party owing such amount and such costs and expenses shall be included in the calculation of the amount of the applicable Shared Contingent Liability in determining the reimbursement obligations of the other Party with respect thereto; provided, however, that if so directed by the Party providing the invoice, in lieu of remitting amounts directly to the Party providing the invoice, the owing Party shall remit the owed amount directly to the appropriate third party or parties or to an account established by the invoicing Party for the benefit of the Parties, in which case each Party shall contribute its Sharing Percentage of such amount to such account for the benefit of the Parties. It shall not be a defense to any obligation by any Party to pay any amounts, whether pursuant to this Section 6 or in respect of Losses pursuant to Section 7, in respect of any Shared Contingent Liability that (i) such Party was not consulted in the defense or management thereof, (ii) that such Party’s views or opinions as to the conduct of such defense were not accepted or adopted, (iii) that such Party does not approve of the quality or manner of the defense thereof or (iv) that such Shared Contingent Liability was incurred by reason of a settlement rather than by a judgment or other determination of Liability (even if, subject in each case to Section 6.2(g), such settlement was effected without the consent or over the objection of such Party); provided that the foregoing is not meant to not limit the Managing Party’s obligation to keep the other Party informed pursuant to Section 6.2(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party shall be required to pay its share of any final settlement in connection with any Shared Contingent Liability unless the final settlement agreement in connection therewith shall provide for a full and unconditional release of such Party.

6.2 Management of Shared Contingent Liabilities

(m) “Managing Party” with respect to the Shared Contingent Liabilities shall mean CSC; provided, however, that CSRA may become the Managing Party with respect to any Shared Contingent Liability upon the prior written agreement of the Parties.

(n) Except as provided in the Tax Matters Agreement (with respect to management of Tax Contests), the Managing Party shall, on behalf of itself and the other Party, have sole and exclusive authority to, and shall actively and diligently, commence, prosecute, manage, control, conduct or defend (or assume or conduct the defense of) or otherwise determine all matters whatsoever (including, as applicable, litigation strategy and choice of legal counsel or other professionals) with respect to any Shared Contingent Liability. The Managing Party shall promptly notify the other Party in the event that it receives notice of any Shared Contingent Liability including any claim or demand relating thereto; provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not give rise to any rights on the part of the other Party against the Managing Party or affect any other provision of this Section 6.2, except to the extent the other Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. No Party other than the Managing Party shall consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to any Shared Contingent Liability without the prior written consent of the Managing Party. For the avoidance of doubt, any settlement by the Managing Party shall be subject to Section 6.2(g).

31

Exhibit 2.1

(o) The Managing Party shall on a quarterly basis, or if a material development occurs as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, inform the other Party of the status of and developments relating to any matter involving a Shared Contingent Liability and provide copies of any material document, notices or other materials related to such matters; provided that the failure to provide any such information shall not be a basis for liability of the Managing Party except and solely to the extent the receiving Party shall have been actually prejudiced thereby. Each Party shall cooperate fully with the Managing Party in its management of any of such Shared Contingent Liability and shall take such actions in connection therewith that the Managing Party reasonably requests (including providing access to such Party’s Records and other Information and employees as set forth in Section 6.3).

(p) In the event of any dispute as to whether any Liability is a Shared Contingent Liability, the Managing Party may, but shall not be obligated to, commence prosecution, other assertion or defense of such claim or right pending resolution of such dispute. In the event that the Managing Party commences any such prosecution, assertion or defense and, upon resolution of the dispute (pursuant to Section 9 or otherwise), it is determined that such Liability is not a Shared Contingent Liability, as the case may be, and that such Asset or Liability belongs to the other Party, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, the Managing Party shall cease the prosecution, assertion or defense of such right or claim and the control thereof shall be transferred to the other Party. In such event, the other Party shall promptly reimburse the Managing Party for all out-of pocket costs and expenses incurred to such date in connection with the prosecution, assertion or defense of such claim or right (which shall not include the costs of salaries and benefits of employees of the Managing Party or any pro rata portion of overhead or other costs of employing such employees which would have been incurred by such employees’ employer regardless of the employees’ service with respect to the foregoing).

(q) Until and unless the Managing Party assumes responsibility for defending a Shared Contingent Liability, such other Party against which a Third Party Claim may be brought may defend such Third Party Claim, with its costs and expenses to be borne by the Parties in accordance with their Sharing Percentages. If the other Party is conducting the defense of any such Shared Contingent Liability, the Managing Party shall cooperate with such other Party in such defense and make available to such other Party all witnesses, pertinent Information, and material in the Managing Party’s possession or under such Managing Party’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by such other Party (with the costs of the foregoing to be borne by the Parties in accordance with their Sharing Percentages).

(r) Unless the Managing Party has failed to assume the defense of a Shared Contingent Liability in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the other Party may not settle or compromise any Shared Contingent Liability without the prior written consent of the Managing Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(s) In the case of any Shared Contingent Liability, the Managing Party shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of the Shared Contingent Liability without the prior written consent of the other Party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) if the effect thereof is to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment or other nonmonetary relief, to be entered, directly or indirectly, against the other Party.

6.3 Access to Information and Employees by the Managing Party

(e) Unless otherwise prohibited by Law, in connection with the management and disposition of any Shared Contingent Liability, the other Party shall make readily available to and afford to the Managing Party and

32

Exhibit 2.1

its authorized accountants, counsel and other designated representatives reasonable access, subject to appropriate restrictions for classified Information, Confidential Information or Privileged Information, to the employees, properties, Records and other Information of such Party and the members of such Party’s Group insofar as such access relates to the relevant Shared Contingent Liability; it being understood by the Parties that such access as well as any services provided pursuant to Section 6.3(b) may require a significant time commitment on the part of such Party’s employees and that any such commitment shall not otherwise limit any of the rights or obligations set forth in this Section 6; it also being understood that such access and such services provided shall not unreasonably interfere with any of such Party’s employees’ normal functions. Nothing in this Section 6.2(a) shall require any Party to violate any agreement with any third party regarding the confidentiality of confidential and proprietary information relating to that third party or its business; provided, however, that in the event that a Party is required to disclose any such Information, such Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to obtain such third party’s written consent to the disclosure of such Information.

(f) Certain Services. Each of CSC and CSRA shall make available to the other, upon reasonable written request, its and its Subsidiaries’ officers, directors, employees, counsel and agents to assist in the management (including, if applicable, as witnesses in any Action) of any Shared Contingent Liability to the extent that such Persons may reasonably be required in connection with the prosecution, defense or day-to-day management of any Shared Contingent Liability.

(g) Costs and Expenses Relating to Access by the Managing Party. Except as otherwise provided in any Ancillary Agreement, the provision of access and other services pursuant to this Section 6.2 (including by the Managing Party) shall be borne by the Party providing such access and services (other than for actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses, which shall constitute Specified Shared Expenses) and shall be shared by the Parties accordingly.

(h) Other Specified Shared Expenses. Each Party shall be entitled, upon presentation of reasonable supporting documentation thereof, to reimbursement by the other Party of any out-of-pocket costs and expenses in excess of such first Party’s Sharing Percentage of the aggregate combined out-of-pocket costs and expense of both Parties related to or arising out of defending, managing or providing assistance in managing any such Shared Contingent Liability on a quarterly basis, in advance of a final determination or resolution of any Action related to a Shared Contingent Liability. Specified Shared Expenses in respect of Shared Contingent Liabilities shall also include any amounts with respect to a bond, prepayment or similar security or obligation required (or determined to be advisable by the Managing Party) to be posted by the Managing Party in respect of any claim. In order to determine if a Party is owed any reimbursement pursuant to the foregoing, each Party shall provide the other Party on a quarterly basis its total out-of-pocket costs and expenses related to or arising out of defending, managing or providing assistance in managing any such Shared Contingent Liability. In addition, each Party shall, in connection with each invoice, provide a quarterly estimated budget (for informational and planning purposes only) to the other Party of Specified Shared Expenses for the following quarter.

6.4 Notice Relating to Shared Contingent Liabilities; Disputes

(l) In the event that any Party or any member of such Party’s Group or any of their respective Affiliates, becomes aware of (i) any Liability that may be Shared Contingent Liability, (ii) any matter or occurrence that has given or could give rise to a Shared Contingent Liability or (iii) any matter that is material and is reasonably relevant to the Managing Party’s ongoing or future management, prosecution, defense and/or

33

Exhibit 2.1

administration of any Shared Contingent Liability, such Party shall promptly (but in any event within thirty (30) days of becoming aware, unless, by its nature the subject matter of such notice would require earlier notice) notify the other Party of any such matter (setting forth in reasonable detail the subject matter thereof); provided, however, that no Party shall be liable for the failure to provide such notice except and solely to the extent the other Party shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.

(m) In the event that any Party disagrees whether a claim, obligation or Liability is a Shared Contingent Liability or whether such claim, obligation or Liability is a Liability allocated to one of the Parties pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, then such matter shall be resolved pursuant to and in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions set forth in Section 9.

6.5 Cooperation with Governmental Entity

If, in connection with any Shared Contingent Liability, a Party is required by Law to respond to and/or cooperate with a Governmental Entity, such Party shall be entitled to cooperate and respond to such Governmental Entity after, to the extent practicable under the specific circumstances, consultation with the Managing Party with respect to such Shared Contingent Liability; provided that to the extent such consultation was not practicable such Party shall promptly inform the Managing Party of such cooperation and/or response to the Governmental Entity and the subject matter thereof. In the event that any Party is requested or required by any Governmental Entity in connection with any Shared Contingent Liability pursuant to written or oral question or request for Information or documents in any legal or administrative proceeding, review, interrogatory, subpoena, investigation, demand, or similar process, such Party shall notify the Managing Party promptly of the request or requirement and such Party’s response thereto, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the Managing Party with respect to the nature of such Party’s response to the extent practicable and not in violation of any attorney-client Privilege or legal process.

6.6 Default

In the event that a Party defaults in any full or partial payment in respect of any Shared Contingent Liability (as provided in this Section 6 and in Section 7), including the payment of the costs and expenses of the Managing Party, then the non-defaulting Party shall be required to pay the amount in default; provided, however, that any such payment by a non-defaulting Party shall in no way release the defaulting Party from its obligations to pay its obligations in respect of such Shared Contingent Liability (both for past and future obligations) and the non-defaulting Party may exercise any available legal remedies available against such defaulting Party.

6.7 Change of Control

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that there is a public announcement of a Change of Control of CSRA, the obligation of CSC to pay the CSC Sharing Percentage of any Shared Contingent Liability shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, with CSRA to be fully responsible for any Shared Contingent Liability, unless such announced transaction is terminated, in which case such obligation shall be fully reinstated.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that CSRA sells, transfers or assigns (or announces the sale, transfer or assignment of) any business, division or other asset out of which a Shared

34

Exhibit 2.1

Contingent Liability arose, the obligation of CSC to pay the CSC Sharing Percentage of such Shared Contingent Liability shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, with CSRA (and/or the acquirer of such business, division or asset) to be fully responsible for such Shared Contingent Liability (unless, if announced, such transaction is terminated, in which case such obligation shall be fully reinstated).

(f) For purposes of this Agreement a “Change of Control” shall mean, with respect to CSRA, the occurrence of any one of the following after the Effective Time:

(v) the direct or indirect Transfer, in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of Computer Science GS, and the other members of CSRA’s Group, taken as a whole, to one or more Persons, other than to CSRA or one of CSRA Group’s Subsidiaries;

(vi) the first day on which the board of directors of CSRA is not composed of a majority of directors who (A) were a member of CSRA’s board of directors immediately following the Effective Time; or (B) were nominated for election, elected or appointed to CSRA’s board of directors with the approval of a majority of directors described in clause (A) or this clause (B) who were members of CSRA’s board of directors at the time of such nomination, election or appointment (either by a specific vote or by approval by such directors of the proxy statement of CSRA in which such member was named as a nominee for election as a director);

(vii) the consummation of any transaction, including any merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, the result of which is that any Person becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than fifty (50%) of the voting interests of CSRA; provided that a transaction described in this clause (iii) shall not be deemed to involve a Change of Control if (A) CSRA becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company (which shall include a parent company) and (B) the direct or indirect holders of the voting interests of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as, and hold in substantially the same proportions as, the holders of CSRA’s voting interests immediately prior to that transaction. Following any such transaction, references in this definition to CSC or CSRA, as applicable, shall be deemed to refer to such holding company;

(viii) CSRA consolidates with, or merges with or into, any Person, or any Person consolidates with, or merges with or into, CSRA, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of the outstanding voting interests of CSRA, or of such other Person is converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the shares of CSRA’s voting interests outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the voting interest of the surviving Person immediately after giving effect to such transaction; or

(ix) the adoption of a plan relating to the liquidation or dissolution (other than a liquidation into a newly formed holding company) of CSRA.

7. INDEMNIFICATION

7.1 Release of Pre-Distribution Claims

In addition, nothing contained in Section 7.1(a) shall release any person from:

(vi) any Liability assumed, Transferred or allocated to a Party or a member of such Party’s Group pursuant to or contemplated by, or any other Liability of any member of such Group under, this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement including (A) with respect to any Shared Contingent Liability, (B) with respect to CSC, any CSC Liability and (C) with respect to CSRA, any CSRA Liability;

(ix) any Liability that the Parties may have with respect to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise for claims brought against the Parties by third Persons, which Liability shall be governed by the provisions of this Agreement and, in particular, this Section 7 and, if applicable, the appropriate provisions of the Ancillary Agreements.

In addition, nothing contained in Section 7.1(a) shall release CSC from indemnifying any director, officer or employee of CSRA who was a director, officer or employee of CSC or any of its Affiliates prior to the Effective Time, to the extent such director, officer or employee is or becomes a named defendant in any

36

Exhibit 2.1

Action with respect to which he or she was entitled to such indemnification pursuant to then existing obligations.

(v) Each Party shall not, and shall not permit any member of its Group to, make any claim, demand or offset, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification, against any other Party or any member of any other Party’s Group, or any other Person released pursuant to Section 7.1(a), with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to Section 7.1(a).

(w) It is the intention of each Party, by virtue of the provisions of this Section 7.1, to provide, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, for a full and complete release and discharge of all Liabilities existing or arising from all acts and events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or to have failed to occur and all conditions existing or alleged to have existed at or before the Effective Time, whether known or unknown, between or among any Party (and/or a member of such Party’s Group), on the one hand, and any other Party or Parties (and/or a member of such Party’s or Parties’ Group), on the other hand (including any contractual agreements or arrangements existing or alleged to exist between or among any such members at or before the Effective Time), except as specifically set forth in Section 7.1(a) and Section 7.1(b). At any time, at the reasonable request of any other Party, each Party shall cause each member of its respective Group and, to the extent practicable, each other Person on whose behalf it released Liabilities pursuant to this Section 7.1 to execute and deliver releases, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, reflecting the provisions hereof.

7.2 Indemnification by CSC

Except as otherwise specifically set forth in any provision of this Agreement or of any Ancillary Agreement, following the Effective Time, CSC shall and shall cause the other members of the CSC Group to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the CSRA Indemnitees from and against any and all Losses of the CSRA Indemnitees arising out of, by reason of or otherwise in connection with (a) the CSC Liabilities or alleged CSC Liabilities or (b) any breach by CSC of any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly provides for separate indemnification therein, in which case any such indemnification claims shall be made thereunder.

7.3 Indemnification by CSRA

Except as otherwise specifically set forth in any provision of this Agreement or of any Ancillary Agreement, following the Effective Time, CSRA shall and shall cause the other members of the CSRA Group to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the CSC Indemnitees from and against any and all Losses of the CSC Indemnitees arising out of, by reason of or otherwise in connection with (a) the CSRA Liabilities or alleged CSRA Liabilities or (b) any breach by CSRA of any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly provides for separate indemnification therein, in which case any such indemnification claims shall be made thereunder.

7.4 Procedures for Indemnification

(c) Other than with respect to Third Party Claims, which shall be governed by Section 7.4(b), and Shared Contingent Liabilities, which shall be governed by Section 6.3, each CSC Indemnitee and CSRA Indemnitee (each, an “Indemnitee”) shall notify in writing, with respect to any matter that such Indemnitee has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement or any Ancillary

37

Exhibit 2.1

Agreement, the Party which is or may be required pursuant to this Section 7 or pursuant to any Ancillary Agreement to make such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”), within thirty (30) days of such determination, stating the amount of the Loss claimed, if known, and method of computation thereof, and referring to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed by such Indemnitee or arises; provided, however, that the failure to provide such written notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. Each such Indemnitee shall provide the applicable Indemnifying Party with reasonable access, upon reasonable prior written notice and during normal business hours, in a manner so as not to unreasonably interfere in any material respect with the normal business operations of such Indemnitee, to its books and records, properties and personnel relating to the claim the Indemnitee has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

(d) Third Party Claims. If a claim or demand is made by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement (a “Third Party Claim”) against an Indemnitee as to which such Indemnitee is or may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, such Indemnitee shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing, and in reasonable detail, of the Third Party Claim promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days) after receipt by such Indemnitee of written notice of the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure to provide notice of any such Third Party Claim pursuant to this or the preceding sentence shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. If any Party shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion of a Third Party Claim which may reasonably be determined to be a Shared Contingent Liability, such Party, as appropriate, shall give the Managing Party written notice thereof within thirty (30) days after such Person becomes aware of such Third Party Claim subject to and in compliance with Section 6.3. Thereafter, the Indemnitee shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party (and, if applicable, to the Managing Party), promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after the Indemnitee’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third Party Claim.

(e) Other than in the case of (i) a Shared Contingent Liability (the defense of which shall be assumed and controlled by the Managing Party), (ii) the Maryland Medicaid Enterprise Restructuring Project claims described on page F-50 of the Form 10 (the defense of which shall be assumed and controlled by CSRA at CSRA’s own cost and expense and by CSRA’s own counsel) or (iii) Taxes addressed in the Tax Matters Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense thereof, at such Indemnifying Party’s own cost and expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, that is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee, within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such notice from such Indemnitee; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim to the extent such Third Party Claim (x) is an allegation of a criminal violation or (y) seeks injunctive relief against the Indemnitee. In connection with the Indemnifying Party’s defense of a Third Party Claim, such Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, at its own expense and, in any event, shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent Information, materials and information in such Indemnitee’s possession or under such Indemnitee’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that in the event of that any of the Indemnities reasonably believes there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying

38

Exhibit 2.1

Party and the applicable Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, separate counsel as required by the applicable rules of professional conduct with respect to such matter; provided, further, that if (i) the Third Party Claim is not a Shared Contingent Liability and (ii) the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim but has specified, and continues to assert, any reservations or exceptions to such defense or to its liability therefor, then, in any such case, the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for all Indemnitees shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party.

(f) Notwithstanding any assumption of defense of a Third Party Claim by an Indemnifying Party in accordance with Section 7.4(c), in the event that in the course of defending such Third Party Claim the Indemnifying Party or the other Party becomes aware that the subject matter of such Third Party Claim relates to a Liability of the other Party and not to a Liability of such Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall, subject to the prior written consent of the other Party to which such Liability belongs (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer the defense of such claim to such other Party, and shall thereafter cooperate fully with such other Party in such defense and make available to such other Party, at such Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent Information, materials and information in such Indemnifying Party’s possession or under such Indemnifying Party’s control relating to such Third Party Claim as are reasonably required by such other Party.

(g) Until and unless the Indemnifying Party assumes responsibility for defending a Third Party Claim, such Indemnitee may defend such Third Party Claim at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnitee is conducting the defense against any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnitee in such defense and make available to the Indemnitee, at the Indemnitee’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent Information, and material in such Indemnifying Party’s possession or under such Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the Indemnitee.

(h) Unless the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, no Indemnitee may settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(i) In the case of a Third Party Claim, no Indemnifying Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) if the effect thereof is to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment or other non-monetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly, against any Indemnitee. For the avoidance of doubt, no such consent shall be required to the extent such judgment or settlement is for monetary damages.

(j) Except as otherwise set forth in Section 6 and Section 8.6, or as set forth in any Ancillary Agreement, absent fraud or willful misconduct by an Indemnifying Party, the indemnification provisions of this Section 7 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of an Indemnitee for any monetary or compensatory damages or losses resulting from any breach of this Agreement and each Indemnitee expressly waives and relinquishes any and all rights, claims or remedies such Person may have with respect to the foregoing other than under this Section 7 against any Indemnifying Party. For the avoidance of doubt, all disputes in respect of this Section 7 shall be resolved in accordance with Section 9.

7.5 Cooperation in Defense and Settlement

39

Exhibit 2.1

(e) With respect to any Third Party Claim that is not a Shared Contingent Liability and that implicates both Parties in any material respect due to the allocation of Liabilities, responsibilities for management of defense and related indemnities pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, the Parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate fully and maintain a joint defense (in a manner that will preserve for all Parties any Privilege with respect thereto). The Party that is not responsible for managing the defense of any such Third Party Claim shall, upon reasonable request, be consulted with respect to significant matters relating thereto and may, if necessary or helpful, retain counsel to assist in the defense of such claims.

(f) CSC and CSRA each agree that at all times from and after the Effective Time, if an Action is commenced by a third party naming both Parties (or any member of such Parties’ respective Groups) as defendants and with respect to which a named Party (or any member of such Party’s respective Group) is a nominal defendant and/or such Action is otherwise not a Liability allocated to such named Party under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, then the other Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such nominal defendant to be removed from such Action, as soon as reasonably practicable.

7.6 Indemnification Payments

(g) Indemnification required by this Section 7 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount of Losses in a timely fashion during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or a Loss incurred.

(h) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any CSC Indemnitee receives any proceeds from the State of Maryland in respect of the Maryland Medicaid Enterprise Restructuring Project claims described on page F-50 of the Form 10, CSC shall pay or cause the applicable CSC Indemnitee to pay over to CSGS the full amount of such proceeds.

7.7 Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts

(a) Any Loss subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 7 including, for the avoidance of doubt, in respect of any Shared Contingent Liability, shall be calculated (i) net of insurance proceeds that actually reduce the amount of the Loss, (ii) net of any proceeds received by the Indemnitee from any third party for indemnification for such Liability that actually reduce the amount of the Loss (“Third Party Proceeds”) and (iii) net of any Tax benefits actually realized in accordance with, and subject to, the principles set forth or referred to in Section 2.4 of the Tax Matters Agreement. Accordingly, the amount which any Indemnifying Party is required to pay pursuant to this Section 7 to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 7 shall be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds or Third Party Proceeds theretofore actually recovered by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in respect of the related Loss. If an Indemnitee receives a payment required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Loss (an “Indemnity Payment”) and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds or Third Party Proceeds, then the Indemnitee shall pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if the Insurance Proceeds or Third Party Proceeds had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payment was made.

(b) The Parties acknowledge that the indemnification provisions hereof do not relieve any insurer who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim to pay such claim. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Indemnitee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to collect or recover any Insurance Proceeds and any

40

Exhibit 2.1

Third Party Proceeds (other than Insurance Proceeds under an arrangement where future premiums are adjusted to reflect prior claims in excess of prior premiums) to which the Indemnitee is entitled in connection with any Loss for which the Indemnitee seeks indemnification pursuant to this Section 7; provided that the Indemnitee’s inability to collect or recover any such Insurance Proceeds or Third Party Proceeds (despite having used commercially reasonable efforts) shall not limit the Indemnifying Party’s obligations hereunder.

7.8 Additional Matters; Survival of Indemnities

(a) The indemnity agreements contained in this Section 7 shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnitee; (ii) the knowledge by the Indemnitee of Losses for which it might be entitled to indemnification hereunder; and (iii) any termination of this Agreement following the Effective Time.

(b) The rights and obligations of each Party and their respective Indemnitees under this Section 7 shall survive the sale or other Transfer by any Party or its respective Subsidiaries of any Assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities, with respect to any Loss of any Indemnitee related to such Assets, businesses or Liabilities.

8. PRESERVATION OF RECORDS; ACCESS TO INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY; PRIVILEGE

8.1 Preservation of Corporate Records

(i) Except to the extent otherwise provided herein or in any Ancillary Agreement, a Party maintaining or providing Records or access to Information to the other Party under this Agreement shall be entitled to receive from such other Party, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payments for such amounts, relating to supplies, disbursements and other out-of-pocket expenses (which shall not include the costs of salaries and benefits of employees of such Party or any pro rata portion of overhead or other costs of employing such employees which would have been incurred by such employees’ employer regardless of the employees’ service with respect to the foregoing), as may be reasonably incurred in providing such Records or access to Information.

(j) The Parties shall comply with those document retention policies as shall be set forth on Schedule 8.1(b) hereto or otherwise established and agreed to in writing by their respective authorized officers at or prior to the Effective Time in respect of Records and related matters. For the avoidance of doubt, each Party shall comply with the records retention requirements applicable to their respective contract with a Government Customer.

8.2 Financial Statements and Accounting; Government Audits

Each Party agrees to provide assistance and reasonable access to its properties, Records, other Information and personnel set forth in this Section 8.2 at the request of the other Party: (i) at any time, with the consent of the other Party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) for reasonable business purposes relating to financial reporting and other regulatory obligations (including disclosure obligations) or other obligations to Government Entities; (ii) from the Effective Time until the completion of each Party’s audit for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017 (or thereabout), in connection with the preparation and audit of each Party’s financial statements for the fiscal years ending March 31, 2016 (or thereabout) and March 31, 2017 (or thereabout) (including financial statements for any interim periods), the printing, filing and public

41

Exhibit 2.1

dissemination of such financial statements and the audit of each Party’s internal controls over financial reporting and management’s assessment thereof and management’s assessment of each Party’s disclosure controls and procedures, if required; (iii) in the event that either Party changes its independent auditors within two (2) years following the Distribution Date, reasonable access on the terms set forth in this Section 8.2 for a period of up to one hundred and eighty (180) days from such change; and (iv) to the extent reasonably necessary to respond to any written request or official comment from a Governmental Entity, such as in connection with responding to a comment letter from the Commission or an audit request from the Defense Contract Audit Agency or the Defense Contract Management Agency. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party agrees as follows:

(n) Financial Statements. Each Party shall provide reasonable access to the other Party on a timely basis to all Information reasonably required to meet its schedule for the preparation, printing, filing, and public dissemination of its quarterly and annual financial statements and for management’s assessment of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and its internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Items 307 and 308, respectively, of Regulation S-K and, to the extent applicable to such Party, its auditor’s audit of its internal controls over financial reporting and management’s assessment thereof in accordance with Section 404 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 and the Commission’s and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s rules and auditing standards thereunder, if required (such assessments and audit being referred to as the “Internal Control Audit and Management Assessments”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party shall provide all required financial and other Information with respect to itself and its Subsidiaries to its auditors in a sufficient and reasonable time and in sufficient detail to permit its auditors to take all steps and perform all reviews necessary to provide sufficient assistance, if requested, to each other Party’s auditors with respect to Information to be included or contained in such other Party’s annual financial statements and to permit such other Party’s auditors and management to complete the Internal Control Audit and Management Assessments, for all required periods in the fiscal years ending March 31, 2016 (or thereabout) and March 31, 2017 (or thereabout).

(o) Access to Audit Personnel and Records. Except to the extent otherwise contemplated by the Ancillary Agreements, each Party shall authorize its respective auditors to make reasonably available to the other Party’s auditors (the “Other Party’s Auditors”) both the personnel who performed or are performing the annual audits of such audited Party (each Party with respect to its own audit, the “Audited Party”) and work papers related to the annual audits of such Audited Party (subject to the execution of any reasonable and customary access letters that such Audited Party’s auditors may require in connection with the review of such work papers by such Other Party’s Auditors), in all cases within a reasonable time prior to such Audited Party’s auditors’ opinion date, so that the Other Party’s Auditors are able to perform the procedures they reasonably consider necessary to take responsibility for the work of the Audited Party’s auditors as it relates to their auditors’ report on such other Party’s financial statements, all within sufficient time to enable such other Party to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of its annual financial statements.

(p) Annual Reports. Each Party shall deliver to the other Party a reasonably complete draft of the portions of the annual report (and financial statements required to be filed therewith) for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016 (or thereabout) (the “Annual Report”) that relate to or directly discuss the Distribution and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, no later than two weeks prior to the date such Annual Report is expected to be filed; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, each Party may continue to revise its respective Annual Report prior to the filing thereof, with material changes to the portions of the Annual Report and accompanying financial statements that are required to be shared hereunder to be

42

Exhibit 2.1

delivered to the other Party as soon as reasonably available. Each Party shall notify the other Party, as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware thereof, of any material accounting differences relating to the Distribution and other transactions contemplated by this Agreement between the financial statements to be included in such Party’s Annual Report and the pro forma financial statements included, as applicable, in the Form 10 or the Form 8-K to be filed by CSC with the Commission on or about the time of the Distribution. If any such differences are notified by any Party, the Parties shall confer and/or meet as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, and in any event prior to the filing of any Annual Report, to consult with each other in respect of such differences and the effects thereof on the Parties’ Annual Reports. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither Party shall be required to disclose to the other Party events or occurrences that such Party determines in good faith to be significant or material to such Party and that are not appropriate for disclosure.

(q) Nothing in this Section 8 shall require any Party to violate any agreement with any third party regarding the confidentiality of confidential and proprietary Information relating to that third party or its business; provided, however, that in the event that a Party is required under this Section 8.2 to disclose any such Information, such Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to obtain such third party’s written consent to the disclosure of such Information.

8.3 Provision of Information

Other than in circumstances in which indemnification is sought pursuant to Section 7 (in which event the provisions of such Section shall govern) or for matters related to provision of Tax Records (in which event the provisions of the Tax Matters Agreement shall govern) and without limiting the applicable provisions of Section 6, and subject to appropriate restrictions for classified Information, Privileged Information or Confidential Information:

(k) If Information that is retained by CSC (pursuant to the proviso in Section 1.1(14)(xii)) is (i) CSC Information but used in or related to the CSRA Business, CSRA shall have the right to access and use such Information and make reasonable copies thereof but solely for its internal purposes consistent with past practice, subject to applicable security restrictions and confidentiality obligations as set forth in Section 8.5 (Confidentiality) and (ii) CSRA Information, CSRA shall have the right to access and use such Information and make reasonable copies thereof, which copies shall be included in the CSRA Assets;

(l) If Information that is retained by CSRA (pursuant to the proviso in Section 1.1(19)(xii)) is (i) CSRA Information but used in or related to the CSC Business, CSC shall have the right to access and use such Information and make reasonable copies thereof but solely for its internal purposes consistent with past practice, subject to applicable security restrictions and confidentiality obligations as set forth in Section 8.5 and (ii) is CSC Information, CSC shall have the right to access and use such Information and make reasonable copies thereof, which copies shall be included in the CSC Assets.

8.4 Witness Services

Except in the event the Parties are opposing one another in an Action, in which case normal discovery rules shall apply, at all times from and after the Effective Time, CSC and CSRA shall each use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the other Party, upon reasonable written request, its and its Subsidiaries’ former (to the extent practicable) and then-current directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents of such Party as witnesses and any Records or other Information within its control

43

Exhibit 2.1

or which it otherwise has the ability to make available (other than materials covered by any Privilege) to the extent that such Persons (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents) or Records or other Information may reasonably be required to testify, in the case of Persons, or be provided, in the case of Records or Information, in connection with the prosecution or defense of any Action in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved (except for claims, demands or Actions between members of each Group). A Party providing a witness to the other Party under this Section shall be entitled to receive from the recipient of such witness services, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payments for such amounts, relating to supplies, disbursements and other out-of-pocket expenses (which shall not include the costs of salaries and benefits of employees who are witnesses or any pro rata portion of overhead or other costs of employing such employees which would have been incurred by such employees’ employer regardless of the employees’ service as witnesses; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Party providing a witness (including in connection with any Shared Contingent Liability) shall be entitled to receive the pro rata portion of the costs of salaries and benefits of such employees with respect to whom at least thirty percent (30%) of their professional time over a period of one month or greater is dedicated to such witness services), as may be reasonably incurred and properly paid under applicable Law.

8.5 Confidentiality

(i) Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, each Party shall hold, and shall cause each of its respective Subsidiaries to hold, and shall cause its and their respective officers, employees, agents, consultants and advisors to hold, in strict confidence, and not to disclose or release or, except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, use, without the prior written consent of the Party to whom the Confidential Information relates (which may be withheld in such Party’s sole and absolute discretion, except where disclosure is required by applicable Law), any and all Confidential Information (as defined herein) concerning or belonging to the other Party; provided that each Party may disclose, or may permit disclosure of, Confidential Information (i) to its respective auditors, attorneys, financial advisors, bankers and other appropriate consultants and advisors who have a need to know such Information and are informed of the obligation to hold such Information confidential and in respect of whose failure to comply with such obligations, the applicable Party will be responsible, (ii) if any Party or any of its respective Subsidiaries is required or compelled to disclose any such Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law or stock exchange rule or is advised by outside counsel in connection with a governmental proceeding that it is advisable to do so, (iii) as required in connection with any legal or other proceeding by one Party against any other Party, (iv) as necessary in order to permit a Party to prepare and disclose its financial statements, Tax Returns or other required disclosures, (v) as necessary for a Party to enforce its rights or perform its obligations under this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 2.3) or an Ancillary Agreement or (vi) to Governmental Entities in accordance with applicable procurement regulations and contract requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any demand or request for disclosure of Confidential Information is made pursuant to clause (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi) above, each Party, as applicable, shall promptly notify (to the extent permissible by Law) the Party to whom the Confidential Information relates of the existence of such request, demand or disclosure requirement and shall provide such affected Party a reasonable opportunity to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, which such Party will cooperate in obtaining to the extent reasonably practicable. In the event that such appropriate protective order or other remedy is not obtained, the Party which faces the disclosure requirement shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that

44

Exhibit 2.1

is required to be disclosed and shall take commercially reasonable steps to ensure that confidential treatment is accorded such Confidential Information.

(j) Each Party acknowledges that it and the other members of its Group may have in its or their possession confidential or proprietary Information of third parties that was received under confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements with such third party while such Party and/or members of its Group were part of the CSC Group. Each Party shall comply, and shall cause the other members of its Group to comply, and shall cause its and their respective officers, employees, agents, consultants and advisors (or potential buyers) to comply, with all terms and conditions of any such third-party agreements entered into prior to the Effective Time, with respect to any confidential and proprietary Information of third parties to which it or any other member of its Group has had access.

(k) The Parties agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that the provisions of this Section 8.5 were not performed in accordance with their specific terms. Accordingly, it is hereby agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

(l) For the avoidance of doubt, the disclosure and sharing of Privileged Information shall be governed by Section 8.6 and not by this Section 8.5.

8.6 Privilege Matters

(c) Pre-Separation Services. The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services that have been and will be provided prior to the Effective Time have been and will be rendered for the collective benefit of each of the members of the CSC Group and the CSRA Group, and that each of the members of the CSC Group and the CSRA Group should be deemed to be the client with respect to such pre-separation services for the purposes of asserting all privileges, immunities, or other protections from disclosure which may be asserted under applicable Law, including attorney-client privilege, business strategy privilege, joint defense privilege, common interest privilege, and protection under the work-product doctrine (“Privilege”). The Parties shall have a shared Privilege with respect to all Information subject to Privilege (“Privileged Information”) which relates to such pre-separation services. For the avoidance of doubt, Privileged Information within the scope of this Section 8.6 includes, but is not limited to, services rendered by legal counsel retained or employed by any Party (or any member of such Party’s respective Group), including outside counsel and in-house counsel.

(d) Post-Separation Services. The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services will be provided following the Effective Time to each of CSC and CSRA. The Parties further recognize that certain of such post-separation services will be rendered solely for the benefit of CSC or CSRA, as the case may be, while other such post-separation services may be rendered with respect to claims, proceedings, litigation, disputes, or other matters which involve CSC and CSRA. With respect to such post-separation services and related Privileged Information, the Parties agree as follows:

(vi) All Privileged Information relating to any claims, proceedings, litigation, disputes, or other matters which involve CSC and CSRA shall be subject to a shared Privilege between the Parties involved in the claims, proceedings, litigation, disputes, or other matters at issue; and

45

Exhibit 2.1

(vii) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.6(b)(i), Privileged Information relating to post-separation services provided solely to one of CSC or CSRA shall not be deemed shared between the Parties, provided that the foregoing shall not be construed or interpreted to restrict the right or authority of the Parties (x) to enter into any further agreement, not otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, concerning the sharing of Privileged Information or (y) otherwise to share Privileged Information without waiving any Privilege which could be asserted under applicable Law.

(e) The Parties agree as follows regarding all Privileged Information with respect to which the Parties shall have a shared Privilege under Sections 8.6(a) or (b):

(x) Subject to Section 8.6(c)(iii) and (iv), no Party may waive any Privilege which could be asserted under any applicable Law, and in which the other Party has a shared Privilege, without the consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Consent shall be in writing, or shall be deemed to be granted unless written objection is made within ten (10) days after written notice by the requesting Party to the Party whose consent is sought;

(xi) If a dispute arises between or among the Parties or their respective Subsidiaries regarding whether a Privilege should be waived to protect or advance the interest of any Party, each Party agrees that it shall negotiate in good faith, shall endeavor to minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other Party, and shall not unreasonably withhold consent to any request for waiver by the other Party. Each Party specifically agrees that it shall not withhold consent to waive for any purpose except to protect its own legitimate interests;

(xii) If, within ten (10) days of receipt by the requesting Party of written objection, the Parties have not succeeded in negotiating a resolution to any dispute regarding whether a Privilege should be waived, and the requesting Party determines that a Privilege should nonetheless be waived to protect or advance its interest, the requesting Party shall provide the objecting Party ten (10) days written notice prior to effecting such waiver. Each Party specifically agrees that failure within ten (10) days of receipt of such notice to commence proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin such disclosure under applicable Law shall be deemed full and effective consent to such disclosure; and

(xiii) In the event of any litigation or dispute between the Parties, or any members of their respective Groups, either such Party may waive a Privilege in which the other Party or member of such Group has a shared Privilege, without obtaining the consent of the other Party; provided that such waiver of a shared Privilege shall be effective only as to the use of Privileged Information with respect to the litigation or dispute between the Parties and/or the applicable members of their respective Groups, and shall not operate as a waiver of the shared Privilege with respect to third parties.

(f) The transfer of all Information pursuant to this Agreement is made in reliance on the agreement of CSC or CSRA as set forth in Section 8.5 and this Section 8.6, to maintain the confidentiality of Privileged Information and to assert and maintain any applicable Privilege. The access to Information being granted hereunder, the agreement to provide witnesses and individuals hereunder, the furnishing of notices and documents and other cooperative efforts contemplated hereunder, and the transfer of Privileged Information between the Parties and their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement, in each case shall not be deemed a waiver of any Privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise.

46

Exhibit 2.1

(g) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 8.6, the Audit Management Party (as defined in the Tax Matters Agreement) shall have the authority to disclose or not disclose, in its sole discretion, any and all Privileged Information to (i) any Taxing Authority (as defined in the Tax Matters Agreement) conducting a Tax Contest or (ii) to third parties in connection with the defense of a Tax Contest, including expert witnesses, accountants and other advisors, potential witnesses and other parties whose assistance is deemed, in the sole discretion of the Audit Management Party, to be necessary or beneficial to representing the interests of the Parties hereunder.

8.7 Ownership of Information

Any Information owned by one Party or any of its Subsidiaries that is provided to a requesting Party pursuant to this Section 8 shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing Party. Unless specifically set forth herein or in an Ancillary Agreement, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as granting or conferring rights of license or otherwise in any such Information. CSC shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, provide CSRA with access to and/or copies of such Information consisting of spreadsheet tools and templates used for human resources purposes (the “HR Tools”). To the extent any such HR Tools contain personally identifiable information, CSC will use commercially reasonable efforts to remove any such personally identifiable information from the HR Tools prior to delivering the HR Tools to CSRA.

8.8 Other Agreements

The rights and obligations granted under this Section 8 are subject to any specific rights, obligations, limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange or confidential treatment of Information set forth in any Ancillary Agreement.

9. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

9.1 Negotiation

In the event of a controversy, dispute or claim arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance, nonperformance, validity or breach of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or otherwise arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby, including any claim based on contract, tort, statute or constitution (collectively, “Disputes”), the general counsels of the Parties (or such other individuals designated by the respective general counsels) and/or the executive officers designated by the Parties, shall negotiate for a reasonable period of time to settle such Dispute; provided that such reasonable period shall not, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, exceed forty-five (45) days from the time of receipt by a Party of written notice of such Agreement Dispute (“Dispute Notice”); provided, further, that in the event of any arbitration in accordance with Section 9.3 hereof, the Parties shall not assert the defenses of statute of limitations and laches arising during the period beginning after the date of receipt of the Dispute Notice, and any contractual time period or deadline under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to which such Dispute relates occurring after the Dispute Notice is received shall not be deemed to have passed until such Dispute has been resolved.

9.2 Mediation

47

Exhibit 2.1

If, within forty-five (45) days after receipt by a Party of a Dispute Notice, the Parties have not succeeded in negotiating a resolution of the Dispute, the Parties may mutually agree to submit the Dispute at the earliest possible date to mediation conducted in accordance with the Mediation Procedure of the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (“CPR”), with each Party to bear equally the costs of the mediation; provided, however, that each Party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees and expenses and other costs in connection with such mediation. If mediation has been so agreed, the parties agree to participate in good faith in the mediation and negotiations related thereto for a period of thirty (30) days or such longer period as they may mutually agree following the initial mediation session (the “Mediation Period”).

9.3 Arbitration

If the Parties do not elect to submit the Dispute to mediation in accordance with Section 9.2 or the Dispute has not been resolved for any reason after the Mediation Period, such Dispute shall be determined, at the request of any relevant Party, by arbitration conducted in Virginia, before and in accordance with the then-existing Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration of the CPR, except as modified herein (the “Rules”). There shall be three arbitrators, one of which shall be designated by each Party and the third of which shall be selected by the two so designated, which two shall be appointed by the Parties within twenty (20) days of receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration and which third arbitrator shall be selected within fifteen (15) days thereafter. If the arbitrators are not timely appointed by the Parties (or by the selected arbitrators) under this Section 9.3, he or she shall be appointed by the CPR in accordance with the Rules, and in any such procedure, each Party shall be given two strikes, excluding strikes for cause. Any controversy concerning whether an Dispute is an arbitrable Dispute, whether arbitration has been waived, whether an assignee of this Agreement is bound to arbitrate, or as to the interpretation, validity or enforceability of this Section 9 shall be determined by the arbitrator. In resolving any Dispute, the Parties intend that the arbitrator shall apply the substantive Laws of the State of New York, without regard to any choice of law principles thereof that would mandate the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. The Parties intend that the provisions to arbitrate set forth herein be valid, enforceable and irrevocable, and any award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the Parties. The Parties agree to comply and cause the members of their applicable Group to comply with any award made in any such arbitration proceedings and agree to enforcement of or entry of judgment upon such award, in any court of competent jurisdiction, including the Virginia Courts (as defined in Section 11.18). The arbitrator shall be entitled, if appropriate, to award any remedy in such proceedings, including monetary damages, specific performance and all other forms of legal and equitable relief; provided, however, the arbitrator shall not be entitled to award special, consequential, reputational, indirect or punitive damages unless in connection with indemnification for a Third Party Claim (and in such a case, only to the extent awarded in such Third Party Claim).

9.4 Arbitration Period

Any arbitration proceeding shall be concluded in a maximum of six (6) months from the commencement of the arbitration or such other period as the arbitrator together with the Parties involved in such proceeding shall deem reasonable.

9.5 Treatment of Negotiations, Mediation and Arbitration

Without limiting the provisions of the Rules, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties or permitted by this Agreement, the Parties shall keep, and shall cause the members of their applicable Group to keep,

48

Exhibit 2.1

confidential all matters relating to and any negotiation, mediation, conference or discussion or otherwise pursuant to this Section 9, all of which shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and comparable state rules; provided that such matters may be disclosed (i) to the extent reasonably necessary in any proceeding ancillary to an arbitration hereunder, including to enforce the award or for entry of a judgment upon the award and (ii) to the extent otherwise required by Law or the rules of any stock exchange on which a Party’s securities may be listed. Nothing said or disclosed, nor any document produced, in the course of any negotiations, conferences and discussions that is not otherwise independently discoverable shall be offered or received as evidence or used for impeachment or for any other purpose in any current or future arbitration. Nothing contained herein is intended to or shall be construed to prevent a Party from applying to any court of competent jurisdiction for interim measures or other provisional relief in connection with the subject matter of any Disputes. Without prejudice to such provisional remedies as may be available under the jurisdiction of a court, the arbitral tribunal shall have full authority to grant provisional remedies and to direct the parties to request that any court modify or vacate any temporary or preliminary relief issued by such court, and to award damages for the failure of a Party to respect the arbitral tribunal’s orders to that effect.

9.6 Continuity of Service and Performance

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties shall continue to provide service and honor all other commitments under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement during the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9 with respect to all matters not subject to such dispute resolution.

9.7 Consolidation

The arbitrator may consolidate an arbitration under this Agreement with any arbitration arising under or relating to the Ancillary Agreements or any other agreement between the parties entered into pursuant hereto, as the case may be, if the subject of the Disputes thereunder arises out of or relates essentially to the same set of facts or transactions. Such consolidated arbitration shall be determined by the arbitrator appointed for the arbitration proceeding that was commenced first in time.

10.2 Post-Effective Time Claims

Subject to Section 10.6, if, subsequent to the Effective Time, any person shall assert a claim against CSRA or any of its Subsidiaries (including where CSRA or its Subsidiaries are joint defendants with other persons) with respect to any claim, suit, action, proceeding, injury, loss, liability, damage or expense incurred or claimed to have been incurred prior to the Effective Time in or in connection with the conduct of the CSRA Business or, to the extent any claim is made against CSRA or any of its Subsidiaries (including where CSRA or its Subsidiaries are joint defendants with other persons), the conduct of the CSC Business, and which claim, suit, action, proceeding, injury, loss, liability, damage or expense may arise out of an insured or insurable occurrence under one or more of the Company Policies, CSC shall, at the time such claim is asserted, be deemed to designate, without need of further documentation, CSRA as the agent and attorney-in-fact to assert and to collect any related Insurance Proceeds under such Company Policy, and shall further be deemed to confer, without need of further documentation, but subject to Section 10.10, upon CSRA any and all rights of an insured party under such Company Policy with respect to such asserted claim, specifically including rights of indemnity and the right to be defended by or at the expense of the insurer and the right to any applicable Insurance Proceeds thereunder; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10.2 shall be deemed to constitute (or to reflect) an assignment of the Company Policies, or any of them, to CSRA.

10.3 Administration; Other Matters

(m) Administration. Subject to Section 10.10, from and after the Effective Time, each Party shall provide reasonable assistance to the other Party at the request of the other Party in regards to Claims Administration under Company Policies.

11.21 Force Majeure

No Party (or any Person acting on its behalf) shall have any liability or responsibility for failure to fulfill any obligation (other than a payment obligation) under this Agreement or, unless otherwise expressly

56

Exhibit 2.1

provided therein, any Ancillary Agreement, so long as and to the extent to which the fulfillment of such obligation is prevented, frustrated, hindered or delayed as a consequence of circumstances of Force Majeure. A Party claiming the benefit of this provision shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the occurrence of any such event: (a) notify the other applicable Parties of the nature and extent of any such Force Majeure condition and (b) use due diligence to remove any such causes and resume performance under this Agreement as soon as feasible.

Unless otherwise required by a Final Determination, this Agreement or the Tax Matters Agreement or otherwise agreed to between the Parties, for U.S. federal Tax purposes, any payment made pursuant to this Agreement (other than any payment of interest pursuant to Section 11.11) by: (a) CSRA to CSC shall be treated for all Tax purposes as a distribution by CSRA to CSC with respect to stock of CSRA occurring after CSRA is directly owned by CSC and immediately before the applicable Distribution; or (b) CSC to CSRA shall be treated for all Tax purposes as a tax-free contribution by CSC to CSRA with respect to its stock occurring after CSRA is directly owned by CSC and immediately before the Distribution; and in each case, no Party shall take any position inconsistent with such treatment. In the event that a Taxing Authority (as defined in the Tax Matters Agreement) asserts that a Party’s treatment of a payment pursuant to this Agreement should be other than as required pursuant to this Agreement (ignoring any potential inconsistent or adverse Final Determination), such Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to contest such challenge.

11.25 No Waiver

No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Party, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Ancillary Agreements shall operate as a waiver hereof or thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

11.26 No Admission of Liability

The allocation of Assets and Liabilities herein (including on the Schedules hereto) is solely for the purpose of allocating such Assets and Liabilities between CSC and CSRA and is not intended as an admission of liability or responsibility for any alleged Liabilities vis-à-vis any third party, including with respect to the Liabilities of any non-wholly owned subsidiary of CSC or CSRA.
