Exhibit UNISYS CORP. FCC ELS Text Documents Document [1355-EX EXHIBIT MERGER OF SPERRY CORPORATION AND_ BURROUGHS CORPORATION On November 12, 1986, Sperry Corporation ("Sperry"), a Delaware corporation, was merged into Burroughs Corporation ("Burroughs"), also a Delaware corporation. The surviving corporation retained the Burroughs name, Certificate of Incorporation, By—laws, Board of Directors and officers. On the following day, v November 13, 1986, Burroughs changed its name to Unisys Corporation ("Unisys"). — ___—_ puring 1986 and the first quarter of 1987, Unisys divested significant business operations including: — 1. the former Aerospace Group of Sperry which was sold to Honeywell Inc. as of December 30, 1986 (Sperry Flight Systenms was one division among the Sperry Aerospace Group); 2. the former Marine Group of Sperry which was sold to Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company, a subsidiary of Tenneco, Inc. as of March 27, 1987 (Sperry Marine was one division among the Sperry Marine Group); 3. the former Microwave Group of Sperry which was sold to Hercules Incorporated as of December 22, 1986; and 4. certain assets of Memorex Corporation, a former Burroughs subsidiary, which were sold to Intertransport Beheer B.V. as of December 23, 15986.

  • Sperry Rand's Third-Generation Computers 1964–1980
    Sperry Rand’s Third-Generation Computers 1964–1980 George T. Gray and Ronald Q. Smith The change from transistors to integrated circuits in the mid-1960s marked the beginning of third-generation computers. A late entrant (1962) in the general-purpose, transistor computer market, Sperry Rand Corporation moved quickly to produce computers using ICs. The Univac 1108’s success (1965) reversed the company’s declining fortunes in the large-scale arena, while the 9000 series upheld its market share in smaller computers. Sperry Rand failed to develop a successful minicomputer and, faced with IBM’s dominant market position by the end of the 1970s, struggled to maintain its position in the computer industry. A latecomer to the general-purpose, transistor would be suitable for all types of processing. computer market, Sperry Rand first shipped its With its top management having accepted the large-scale Univac 1107 and Univac III comput- recommendation, IBM began work on the ers to customers in the second half of 1962, System/360, so named because of the intention more than two years later than such key com- to cover the full range of computing tasks. petitors as IBM and Control Data.

TWA was the first commercial buyer of these two products. • 1933 Sperry Corp. formed. • 1946 ENIAC, the world's first large-scale, general-purpose digital computer, developed at the University of Pennsylvania by J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly. • 1949 Remington Rand produces 409, the worlds first business computer. The 409 was later sold as the Univac 60 and 120 and was the first computer used by the Internal Revenue Service and the first computer installed in Japan. • 1950 Remington Rand acquires Eckert-Mauchly Computer Corp. 1951 Remington Rand delivers UNIVAC computer to the U.S. Census Bureau. • 1952 UNIVAC makes history by predicting the election of Dwight D.

  • FROM News Bureau BURROUGHS CORPORATION Detroit, Michigan 48232 Phone: 875-2260, Ext
    FROM News Bureau BURROUGHS CORPORATION Detroit, Michigan 48232 Phone: 875-2260, Ext. 2234 FOR RELEASE AUGUST 11, 1964 Burroughs Corporation announced today a new, modular electronic data processing system of advanced logical design -- the B5500 -- which has up to three times more productive capacity than the B5000. The powerful B5500 integrates fast new hardware with a unique automatic controlling and operating system, providing full real-time capabilities. Developed from proved-in-use design, the system is effective and econom.ical in both commercial and scientific applications. Demonstrations of the B5500 will begin in October at Burroughs ElectroData Manufacturing &: Engineering Division, Pasadena, Calif. Deliveries of the new system, which spans the medium to large scale computer range, will begin in six months. In announcing the new computer, Ray R. Eppert, Burroughs president, declared: "The extremely high productivity of the B5500 -- what we call 'throughput' -- results from the maximum utilization of new organization concepts in a balanced system that accomplishes more real work in a given period of time. "This is called rapid 'turn-around' by many B5000 users who have praised the speed with which the system can finish one job and get started on another," Eppert added. "The amount of work done, measured against the dollar investment, is what counts with the user. " The high "throughput" of the B 5500 is the product of four major abilities of the new system: - 2 - Multiprocessing techniques permit simultaneous handling of two or more programs. For example, while printing out the results of one job, the computer can perform computation on other, different problems and take in raw data on still another task.

  • Burroughs B 5500 Infomration Processing System, 1964
    ADVANCED CONCEPTS - PROVEN IN USE Burrouphs B 5500 The Burroughs 0 5500 is a highly advanced infwmation processing system that spans the medium, intermediate INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM and large scale ranges of compufer wuipm~nt.Ths desfgn concepts and software of the 0 5500 have been thoroughly tesbd in over 50 installations of its predecessor systems-the commmial Burroughs B 5030 and milita'ry Burmughs D 800 Series madular d~taprocessin# systems. Thw earlier Burroughs computer *ems have accomplished, in thousands of hours of customer me: autcrma€iccontrol through a full-scale opsrafing,system; mukipracesing of independent programs, with dynamic skduling by the operating system; w rnodubn'ty, for expansion without nprograming; efficient, effective us of problem oriented languages. ALL THESE PROVEN 1 ACCOMPLISHMENTS, AND MORE, HAVE BEEN BUILT INTO THE NEW, MORE POWERFUL I B 5500, GIVING YOU THESE IMPORTANT BENEFITS: Because of its advanced logical design, the Burroughs B 5500 works as a balanced system to accomplish more, MORE THROUGHPUT PER DOLLAR in the same period of time, than more expensive computer systems which may appear (from raw specifications) to be faster. For example, the B 5500 has the most flexible input/output channel organization of any computer INVESTED system on the market. And it employs thoroughly proven multiprocessing techniques that allow the system to handle automatically a variety of production, debugging and compiling runs simultaneously. - Programing is simpler and less costly because of exclusive hardware/software features that enable the B 5500 to rapidly compile efficient programs written in COBOL, ALGOL, FORTRAN II and FORTRAN IV. With the REDUCEO PROGRAMING COSTS ease of programing in these languages come more effective review and control of the programing activity, based on standard documentation and procedures.
