The company's consolidated results, the actual results related to the proposed acquisition of
Exelis and the forward-looking statements could be affected by many factors, risks and uncertainties, including
but not limited to: the loss of the companys relationship with the U.S. Government or a
reduction in U.S. Government funding; potential changes in U.S. Government or customer
priorities and requirements (including potential deferrals of awards, terminations, reductions of expenditures, changes to
respond to the priorities of Congress and the Administration, budgetary constraints, debt ceiling
implications, sequestration and cost-cutting initiatives); the potential impact of a
security breach, through cyber attack or otherwise, or other significant disruptions of the companys IT networks and systems
or those the company operates for customers; risks inherent with large long-term fixed-price
contracts, particularly the ability to contain cost overruns; financial and government and
regulatory risks relating to international sales and operations; the continued effects of the general weakness in the global
economy and U.S. Governments budget deficits, national debt and sequestration; the
companys ability to continue to develop new products that achieve market acceptance; the
consequences of future geo-political events; strategic acquisitions and the risks and uncertainties related thereto,
including the companys ability to manage and integrate acquired businesses; performance of the
companys subcontractors and suppliers; potential claims that the company is infringing
the intellectual property rights of third parties; the successful resolution of patent infringement claims and the
ultimate outcome of other contingencies, litigation and legal matters; risks inherent in developing
new technologies; changes in the companys effective tax rate; the potential impact of
natural disasters or other disruptions on the companys operations; the potential impact of changes in the regulatory
framework that applies to, or of satellite bandwidth constraints on, the companys managed
satellite and terrestrial communications solutions; changes in future business or other market
conditions that could cause business investments and/or recorded goodwill or other long-term assets to become
impaired; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the
termination of the merger agreement with Exelis; the possibility that Exelis shareholders may
not approve the merger agreement; the risk that the company and Exelis may not be able to obtain the
necessary regulatory approvals or to satisfy any of the other conditions to the proposed acquisition
in a timely manner or at all; the risk that financing for the proposed acquisition may not be
obtained on anticipated terms or at all; risks related to disruption of management time from ongoing business
operations due to the proposed acquisition; the risk that Harris may fail to realize the benefits
expected from the proposed acquisition; the risk that any announcements relating to the
proposed acquisition could have adverse effects on the market price of the companys common stock; and the risk that
the proposed acquisition and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of the
company and Exelis to retain customers and retain and hire key personnel and maintain
relationships with their suppliers and customers, including the U.S. Government, and on their operating results
and businesses generally. Further information relating to factors that may impact the company's
and Exelis results and forward-looking statements are disclosed in their respective
filings with the SEC. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are made as of the date of this
presentation, and the company and Exelis disclaim any intention or obligation, other than imposed by
