2 Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates, assumptions and projections about the business process outsourcing industry and our business and financial results. Forward-looking statements often include words such as “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes” and words and terms of similar substance in connection with discussions of future operating or financial performance. As with any projection or forecast, forward-looking statements are inherently susceptible to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Our actual results may vary materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on any forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf. Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in our forward-looking statements include government regulation, economic, strategic, political and social conditions and the following factors, among others: competitive pressures; changes in interest in outsourced business process services; our ability to obtain adequate pricing for our services and to improve our cost structure; the effects of any acquisitions, joint ventures and divestitures by us; our ability to attract and retain key employees; our ability to attract and retain necessary technical personnel and qualified subcontractors and their ability to deliver or perform as expected; termination right, audits and investigations associated with government contracts; a decline in revenues from or a loss or failure of significant clients; our ability to estimate the scope of work or the costs of performance in our contracts; the failure to comply with laws relating to individually identifiable information and personal health information and laws relating to processing certain financial transactions, including payment card transactions and debit or credit card transactions; our ability to deliver on our contractual obligations properly and on time; our ability to renew commercial and government contracts awarded through competitive bidding processes; increases in the cost of telephone and data services or significant interruptions in such services; changes in tax and other laws and regulations; changes in U.S. GAAP or other applicable accounting policies; and the other risks and uncertainties detailed in the section titled “Risk Factors” section; the “Legal Proceedings” section and other sections of the Conduent Incorporated Form 10 Registration Statement filed with the SEC. This list of important factors is not intended to be exhaustive. Conduent is under no obligation to, and expressly disclaims any obligation to, update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future events or developments, except as required by law. We caution you that the foregoing list of important factors may not contain all of the material factors that are important to you. Any forward-looking statements made by us in this current report speak only as of the date on which they are made. We are under no obligation to, and expressly disclaim any obligation to, update or alter our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, subsequent events or otherwise. Non-GAAP Financial Measures We have reported our financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, we have discussed our results using non-GAAP measures. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional means of analyzing the current periods’ results against the corresponding prior periods’ results. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable U.S. GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our Condensed Combined Financial Statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our management regularly uses our supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. Compensation of our executives is based in part on the performance of our business based on these non-GAAP measures. Please refer to the appendix of this presentation for definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures. Also, non-GAAP measures are footnoted, where applicable, in each slide herein.

Xerox Corporation (“Xerox”) has previously announced plans to separate its Business Process Outsourcing Business (the “BPS Business”) and its Document Technology and Document Outsourcing Business into two independent, publicly-traded companies (the “Spin-Off”). Following the Spin-Off, the BPS Business will be named Conduent Incorporated (“Conduent”). In connection with the Spin-Off, certain entities in the BPS Business following the Spin-Off will be subsidiaries of Conduent. The non-GAAP financial measures in this presentation should not be considered in isolation of, as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures and other information in this presentation is summary information that should be considered in the context of future filings by Xerox and/or Conduent with the SEC and other public announcements Xerox and/or Conduent may make from time to time. As used in this presentation with respect to the BPS Business: Adjusted Revenue We recorded a pre-tax charge of $389 million ($237 million after-tax) during the third quarter of 2015 (the “Health Enterprise Charge” or “HE charge”). Late in the third quarter of 2015, we determined that we would not fully complete Health Enterprise Medicaid platform implementation projects in California and Montana. The charge included $116 million for the write-off of contract receivables (primarily non-current), which reduced revenue $34 million related to the non-cash impairment of the health enterprise software and deferred contract set-up and transition costs and $23 million for other related assets and liabilities. The remainder of the charge was primarily related to settlement costs including payments to subcontractors and will result in cash outflows in future quarters As a result of the significant impact of the Health Enterprise Charge on our reported revenues, costs and expenses as well as key metrics for the period, we discuss our 2015 results using non-GAAP measures such as adjusted revenue, that excludes the impact of the Health Enterprise Charge. In addition to the magnitude of the charge and its impact on our reported results, we excluded the Health Enterprise Charge due to the fact that it was primarily a unique charge associated with the determination, reached after a series of discussions, that fully completing our health enterprise platform implementations in California and Montana was no longer considered probable. We have adjusted total revenue for the full year and third quarter of 2015 for the revenue related HE charge ($116 million). Segment Profit Segment Profit (loss) represents GAAP Income (loss) before Income Taxes adjusted for amortization and intangible assets, restructuring and related costs, business transformation costs, related party interest, separation costs and other expenses, net. We have adjusted segment profit for the full year and third quarter of 2015 for the Heath Enterprise Charge ($389 million). Adjusted EBITDA We use Adjusted EBITDA to provide further information that is useful to an understanding of the financial covenants contained in the BPS Business credit facilities as of November 22, 2016. We use Adjusted EBITDA as an additional way of viewing aspects of its operations that, when viewed with the GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of our core business. Adjusted EBITDA represents Income (loss) before Income Taxes adjusted for depreciation and amortization, restructuring and related costs, separation costs, related party interest, other expenses, net, the Health Enterprise Charge. Restructuring and related costs include restructuring and asset impairment charges as well as costs associated with our strategic transformation program beyond those normally included in restructuring and asset impairment charges. Restructuring consists of costs primarily related to severance and benefits paid to employees pursuant to formal restructuring and workforce reduction plans. Asset impairment includes costs incurred for those assets sold, abandoned or made obsolete as a result of our restructuring actions, exiting from a business or other strategic business changes. Additional costs for our strategic transformation program are primarily related to the implementation of strategic actions and initiatives and include third-party professional service costs as well as one-time incremental costs. All of these costs can vary significantly in terms of amount and frequency based on the nature of the actions as well as the changing needs of the business. Accordingly, due to that significant variability, we exclude these charges since we do not believe they provide meaningful insight into our current or past operating performance nor do we believe they are reflective of our expected future operating expenses as such charges are expected to yield future benefits and savings with respect to our operational performance. Separation costs are expenses incurred in connection with Xerox’s planned separation into two independent, publicly traded companies. Separation costs are primarily for third-party investment banking, accounting, legal, consulting and other similar types of services related to the separation transaction as well as costs associated with the operational separation of the two companies, such as those related to human resources, brand management, real estate and information management to the extent not capitalized. Separation costs include the costs associated with bonuses and restricted stock grants awarded to employees for retention through the separation as well as incremental income tax expense related to certain internal transactions in connection with the separation. These costs are incremental to normal operating charges and are being incurred solely as a result of the separation transaction. Accordingly, we exclude these expenses in order to evaluate our performance on a comparable basis. Related party interest adjusts to exclude the net interest cost associated with our net related party borrowings. Other expenses, net, adjusts to exclude third-party interest expense as well as certain other non-operating costs and expenses. We exclude these amounts in order to evaluate our current and past operating performance and to better understand the expected future trends in our business. We have Adjusted EBITDA for the full year and third quarter of 2015 for the Heath Enterprise Charge ($389 million). Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows from operations, operating income (loss) or net income (loss) as defined by U.S. GAAP as indicators of operating performance and are not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies. Management cautions that amounts presented in accordance with Conduent’s definition Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies because not all companies calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner. Conduent believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to prospective lenders and other users of these financial statements in evaluating the BPS Business’s operating performance because it provides an additional tool to compare business performance across companies and across periods. Free Cash Flow Free Cash Flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities as reported on the Combined statement of cash flows, less cost of additions to land, buildings and equipment and cost of additions to internal use software plus proceed from sales of land, building and equipment. We use the non-GAAP measure of Free Cash Flow as a criterion of liquidity and performance-based components of employee compensation. We use Free Cash Flow as a measure of liquidity to determine amounts we can reinvest in our core businesses, such as amounts available to make acquisitions, invest in land, buildings and equipment and internal use software, make principal payments on debt, or amounts we can return to our stockholders through dividends and/or stock repurchases. In order to provide a meaningful basis for comparison, we are providing information with respect to our Free Cash Flow for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and the years ended December 31, 2013, 2014 and 2015, reconciled for each such period to cash flow provided by operating activities, which we believe to be the most directly comparable measure under GAAP.
