aggregate principal amount of the debentures. On February 1, 2008, we redeemed $99.2 million in aggregate<br />

principal amount of the debentures pursuant to the procedures for redemption at the option of the holders of the<br />

debentures. We may redeem the remaining $25.8 million in aggregate principal amount of the debentures in whole,<br />

or in part, at any time at a pre-determined redemption price.<br />

In January 1996, we completed the issuance of $100 million in aggregate principal amount of 7% Debentures<br />

due January 15, 2026. The debentures are not redeemable prior to maturity.<br />

Short-Term Debt: Our short-term debt at July 1, 2011, April 1, 2011, December 31, 2010, October 1, 2010<br />

and July 2, 2010 was $180.0 million, $180.0 million, $30.0 million, $275.0 million and $30.0 million, respectively,<br />

and consisted primarily of commercial paper outstanding under our commercial paper program that was supported<br />

by our senior unsecured revolving credit facility under the 2008 Credit Agreement. During the first quarter of fiscal<br />

2011, we issued approximately $320 million of commercial paper to fund a portion of the purchase price for our<br />

acquisition of CapRock. During the second quarter of fiscal 2011, we used approximately $285 million of the net<br />

proceeds from the sale of the 2020 Notes and 2040 Notes for repayment of a substantial portion of our outstanding<br />

commercial paper. During the third quarter of fiscal 2011, we issued $150 million of commercial paper to fund a<br />

portion of the purchase price for our pending acquisitions of Schlumberger GCS and Carefx, both of which we<br />

completed on April 4, 2011, the first business day of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011.<br />

Other: We have an automatically effective, universal shelf registration statement, filed with the SEC on<br />

June 3, 2009, related to the potential future issuance of an indeterminate amount of securities, including debt<br />

securities, preferred stock, common stock, fractional interests in preferred stock represented by depositary shares and<br />

warrants to purchase debt securities, preferred stock or common stock.<br />

We expect to maintain operating ratios, fixed-charge coverage ratios and balance sheet ratios sufficient for<br />

retention of, or improvement to, our current debt ratings. There are no assurances that our debt ratings will not be<br />

reduced in the future. If our debt ratings are lowered below “investment grade,” then we may not be able to issue<br />

short-term commercial paper, but may instead need to borrow under our credit facilities or pursue other options. In<br />

addition, if our debt ratings are lowered below “investment grade,” then we may also be required to provide cash<br />

collateral to support outstanding performance bonds. For a discussion of such performance bonds, see the<br />

“Commercial Commitments” discussion below. We do not currently foresee losing our investment-grade debt<br />

ratings, but no assurances can be given. If our debt ratings were downgraded, however, it could adversely impact,<br />

among other things, our future borrowing costs and access to capital markets and our ability to receive certain types<br />

of contract awards.<br />

Contractual Obligations<br />
