1. CODE OF ETHICS
AND STANDARDS
OF CONDUCT

3. Foreword
T he pursuit of technical excellence and the highest standards
of professionalism are the hallmarks of Computer Sciences
Corporation. The Code of Ethics and Standards of Conduct,
which apply to all members of the CSC Board of Directors and all
employees of CSC and its subsidiaries, confirm our commitment
to ethical behavior in the conduct of all CSC activities. We take pride
in our dedication to integrity, fairness, and social responsibility.
Every level of management has the responsibility to monitor and
vigorously enforce the Code of Ethics and Standards of Conduct.
No one at CSC is authorized to engage in or condone unethical or
illegal action, or to direct others to do so. We must also be aware
of the damage that can result from the appearance of questionable
conduct, even if innocent by intent. We are all held accountable
for our actions as individuals and as representatives of CSC.
The principles set forth in our Code of Ethics and Standards of
Conduct reflect the type of behavior that has helped us earn the
respect and success that we enjoy today. As we target even higher
levels of achievement for CSC, it is imperative that we continue
to require ethical conduct in all our business relationships. Anything
less is unacceptable.
Michael W. Laphen
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
