PART I


ITEM 1. BUSINESS
- -----------------

Unisys Corporation ("Unisys" or the "Company") is a worldwide information
services and technology company, providing systems and solutions that help
customers apply information technology to solve their business problems.

Unisys has two business segments -- Services and Technology. Financial
information concerning the two segments is set forth in Note 14, "Segment
information", of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in the
Unisys 1998 Annual Report to Stockholders, and such information is incorporated
herein by reference.

The principal executive offices of Unisys are located at Unisys Way, Blue
Bell, Pennsylvania 19424.

PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
- -------------------------------

Unisys provides services and technology to commercial businesses and
governments throughout most of the world.

In the Services segment, Unisys integrates information solutions and
technology into systems that support customers' critical business operations.
The Services segment also provides support services for distributed networks and
desktops. Major offerings include systems integration, including repeatable and
custom solutions targeted at selected vertical markets, outsourcing, multivendor
maintenance, and network services such as consulting, integration, and on-site
and remote management.

In the Technology segment, Unisys develops high-end servers and related
products to run applications in high-volume, mission-critical environments.
Major offerings include enterprise-class servers, such as the ClearPath server,
which integrates proprietary and "open" platforms, Windows NT servers with
enterprise-class attributes, system middleware to power high-end servers,
storage products, payment systems, and specialized technologies.

Products and services are marketed primarily through direct sales forces.
In certain foreign countries, Unisys markets primarily through distributors.
Unisys manufactures a significant portion of its product lines. Some products,
including certain personal computers, peripheral products, and software
products, are manufactured for Unisys to its design or specifications by other
business equipment manufacturers or software suppliers.


-4-

RAW MATERIALS
- -------------

Raw materials essential to the conduct of the business are generally
readily available at competitive prices in reasonable proximity to those plants
utilizing such materials.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS AND LICENSES
- --------------------------------

Unisys owns many domestic and foreign patents relating to the design and
manufacture of its products, has granted licenses under certain of its patents
to others and is licensed under the patents of others. Unisys does not believe
that its business is materially dependent upon any single patent or license or
related group thereof. Trademarks and service marks used on or in connection
with Unisys products and services are considered to be valuable assets of
Unisys.

BACKLOG
- -------

In the Services business, firm order backlog at December 31, 1998 was $3.4
billion, compared to $2.9 billion at December 31, 1997. Approximately $1.8
billion (54%) of 1998 backlog is expected to be filled in 1999. Although the
Company believes that this backlog is firm, the Company may, for commercial
reasons, allow the orders to be cancelled, with or without penalty. In addition,
funded U.S. Government contracts included in this backlog are generally subject
to termination, in whole or part, at the convenience of the government or if
funding becomes unavailable. In such cases, the Company is generally entitled to
receive payment for work completed plus allowable termination or cancellation
costs.

At the end of 1998, the Company also had $2.4 billion of potential future
Services order value which it may receive under certain multi-year U.S.
government contracts for which funding is appropriated annually. The comparable
value of unfunded multi-year U.S. government contracts for 1997 was $2.0
billion.

Because of the relatively short cycle between order and shipment in its
Technology business, the Company believes that backlog information for this
segment is not material to the understanding of its business.

CUSTOMERS
- ---------

No single customer accounts for more than 10% of Unisys revenue. Sales of
commercial products to various agencies of the U.S. government represented 13%
of total consolidated revenue in 1998.


-5-

COMPETITION
- -----------

Unisys business is affected by rapid change in technology in the
information services and technology field and aggressive competition from many
domestic and foreign companies, including computer hardware manufacturers,
software providers and information services companies. Unisys competes primarily
on the basis of service, product performance, technological innovation, and
price. Unisys believes that its continued investment in engineering and research
and development, coupled with its marketing capabilities, will have a favorable
impact on its competitive position.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
- ------------------------

Unisys-sponsored research and development costs were $296.6 million in
1998, $302.3 million in 1997, and $342.9 million in 1996.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
- ---------------------

Capital expenditures, earnings and the competitive position of Unisys have
not been materially affected by compliance with federal, state and local laws
regulating the protection of the environment. Capital expenditures for
environmental control facilities are not expected to be material in 1999 and
2000.

EMPLOYEES
- ---------

As of December 31, 1998, Unisys had approximately 33,200 employees.

INTERNATIONAL AND DOMESTIC OPERATIONS
- -------------------------------------

Financial information by geographic area is set forth in Note 14, "Segment
information", of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in the
Unisys 1998 Annual Report to Stockholders, and such information is incorporated
herein by reference.

YEAR 2000
- ---------

The Company's Year 2000 readiness disclosure is included under the heading
"Year 2000 readiness disclosure" in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the Unisys 1998 Annual Report
to Stockholders and is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
- -------------------

As of December 31, 1998, Unisys had 28 major facilities in the United
States with an aggregate floor space of approximately 5.6 million square feet,
located primarily in California, Illinois, Michigan,


-6-

Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Utah and Virginia. Three of these facilities, with
aggregate floor space of approximately 1.5 million square feet, were owned by
Unisys and 25, with approximately 4.1 million square feet of floor space, were
leased to Unisys. Approximately 4.6 million square feet of the U.S. facilities
were in current operation, approximately .8 million square feet were subleased
to others, and approximately .2 million square feet were being held in reserve
or were declared surplus with disposition efforts in progress.

As of December 31, 1998, Unisys had 30 major facilities outside the United
States with an aggregate floor space of approximately 3.0 million square feet,
located primarily in Brazil, Canada, France, South Africa, Switzerland and the
United Kingdom. Eight of these facilities, with approximately 1.1 million square
feet of floor space, were owned by Unisys and 22, with approximately 1.9 million
square feet of floor space, were leased to Unisys. Approximately 2.3 million
square feet were in current operation, approximately .4 million square feet were
subleased to others, and approximately .3 million square feet were being held in
reserve or were declared surplus with disposition efforts in progress.

Unisys major facilities include offices, laboratories, manufacturing
plants, warehouses, and distribution and sales centers. Unisys believes that its
facilities are suitable and adequate for current and presently projected needs.
Unisys continuously reviews its anticipated requirements for facilities and, on
the basis thereof, will from time to time acquire additional facilities, expand
existing facilities, and dispose of existing facilities or parts thereof.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
- --------------------------

As previously reported, most recently in the Company's Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 1998, the Company is
involved in two lawsuits with Ceska Sporitelna, a savings bank in the Czech
Republic (the "Bank"). The disputes relate to contracts entered into in 1992 and
1994 between the Bank and certain of the Company's foreign subsidiaries to
design and implement a computer system, including hardware and custom software,
for the Bank's headquarters and branch offices throughout the Czech Republic. In
the first action, the Company is a defendant in Ceska Sporitelna, a.s. v. Unisys
Corporation, filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District
of Pennsylvania in June 1996. The Bank alleges that Unisys made a series of
fraudulent misrepresentations in connection with these contracts. The Bank seeks
to recover more than $100 million, together with punitive damages. The Company
believes it has meritorious defenses to these allegations and intends to defend
them vigorously. The Company has filed a counterclaim in this action alleging
fraud, negligent misrepresentation, intentional interference with prospective
business relations and breach of contract by the Bank, and the Company seeks to
recover more than $100 million, together with punitive damages. Trial is
currently scheduled for March 1999. In the second action, the Company's
subsidiary, Unisys International Services B.V., is the plaintiff in an
arbitration captioned Unisys International Services B.V. v. Ceska Sporitelna,
filed in March 1998, in Vienna, Austria. Unisys International Services B.V.
seeks to recover, among other amounts, approximately $21.1 million from the Bank
for hardware, software, and


-7-

services delivered to and used by the Bank. Hearings in this arbitration are
currently scheduled to begin in June 1999.
