EXHIBIT 10.8
XEROX CORPORATION
OFFICER SEVERANCE PROGRAM
Effective July 18, 2018 

Xerox Corporation (the “Company”) hereby establishes the Officer Severance Program (the “Program”). 

The Program is a severance pay plan within the meaning of Labor Regulations section 2510.3-2 that is an employee welfare benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA and Labor Regulations section 2520.104-24, designed to provide severance payments pursuant to section 401(a)(1) of ERISA to a select group of management or highly compensated employees upon involuntary termination of employment from the Company.

To the maximum extent possible, the Program is not intended to provide for any “deferral of compensation,” as defined in Code Section 409A and authoritative IRS guidance thereunder. Instead, the Program is intended to fall within the exceptions for “short-term deferrals,” as set forth in Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(b)(4), and “separation pay due to involuntary separation from service or participation in a window program,” as set forth in Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), and it is further intended that Officer Severance shall be payable only upon an Eligible Officer’s “separation from service” under Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(h). For purposes of Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii), the right to each payment under the Program shall be treated as the right to a separate payment. The Program shall be interpreted and administered, to the extent possible, in accordance with these intentions.

(d) Interest shall not be payable on any Officer Severance.

3.3. Detrimental Activity and Breach

Payments of Officer Severance to an Eligible Officer shall cease immediately upon a determination by the Administrator that such Eligible Officer engaged in Detrimental Activity against the Company, or breached the written agreement under which Officer Severance is provided to such officer under the Program. 
 
3.4 Termination of Officer Severance Upon Re-employment.  
 
The payment of Officer Severance to an Eligible Officer will terminate and any remaining benefits will be forfeited in the event that the Eligible Officer is subsequently re-employed by the Company, any subsidiary or affiliated company, or any entity that acquires part or all of the assets or operations of the Company or any subsidiary or affiliated company, whether by merger, stock or asset transfer, or other means, before he or she receives the full Officer Severance to which he or she is entitled under the Program. 

ARTICLE IV - PLAN ADMINISTRATION
 
4.1 Powers and Duties of the Administrator.  
 
The Administrator shall be the Plan Administrator, as defined in Section 3(16)(A) of ERISA. The Administrator shall enforce the Program in accordance with its terms, and shall be charged with the general administration 

of the Program. In accordance with Section 4.2, the Administrator shall have all powers and duties necessary to accomplish its purposes. The Administrator may delegate any or all of its duties under the Program. 

4.2 Manner of Administering.  
 
The Administrator shall have full discretionary authority and the exclusive right to construe and interpret the terms and provisions of the Program and to carry out its other powers and duties, and to determine any and all questions arising under the Program or in connection with the administration thereof, including, without limitation, the right to remedy or resolve possible ambiguities, inconsistencies, or omissions, by general rule or particular decision. The actions, interpretations or constructions of the Administrator shall be final, binding, and conclusive on all parties, including but not limited to the Company and any Eligible Officers, and shall be given the maximum possible deference allowed by law. 

 
ARTICLE V - AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

5.1 Amendments and Termination.  
 
The term of the Program shall be 18 months from the date of approval of the Program.  At such time, the Program shall terminate unless the Administrator takes action to renew or extend the Program.  In the event that the Program terminates, no Eligible Officer shall have any claim against any of the assets of the Company.

The Chief Human Resources Officer of the Company shall have the power to amend the Program at any time solely to the extent necessary to ensure compliance with applicable law or effectuate the legal intent of the Program, including the intent that the Program constitute a severance pay welfare benefit plan under Labor Regulations section 2510.3-2(b)(ii), and that no payment under the Program would constitute deferred compensation within the meaning of Code section 409A.

Any amendment shall be in writing and effective in the manner and at the time therein set forth, and the Company and all Eligible Officers and others shall be bound thereby.

 
ARTICLE VI - MISCELLANEOUS

6.1 Limitation of Eligible Officers' Rights.

(a) Payments made under the Program shall not give any employee the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any right or interest under the Program other than as herein provided. The Company reserves the right to dismiss any employee without any liability for any claim against the Company. Inclusion under the Program will not give any Eligible Officer any right to claim any benefit hereunder except to the extent such right has specifically become fixed under the terms of the Program. An Eligible Officer shall not have any recourse towards satisfaction of such benefit becoming fixed under the terms of the Program from other than the general assets of his or her Employer.

(b) Payments made under the Program shall not give any employee the right to any benefits provided only to employees retained in the employ of the Company. Except as may otherwise be required by law or set forth specifically in such plans or in an agreement between the Company and the Eligible Officer, such benefits shall be terminated as of the employee's Severance Date.
 
6.2 Unsecured General Creditor. 

 
All Eligible Officers and their heirs, successors, assigns and personal representatives shall have no legal or equitable rights, claims, or interests in any specific property or assets of the Company with respect to benefits payable under the Program. No assets of the Company shall be held under any trust, or held in any way as collateral security for the fulfillment of the obligations of the Company under the Program. The Company’s assets shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Company. The Company’s obligation under the Program shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future, and the rights of all Eligible Officers shall be no greater than those of unsecured general creditors.

6.3 Non-Duplication of Benefits.

Benefits payable under the Program are in lieu of, and not in addition to, any other severance, separation, change in control or similar type of benefit payable under a severance, separation, change in control or similar plan, policy, agreement or arrangement of the Company. Accordingly, notwithstanding any provision of the Program to the contrary, benefits payable under the Program will be reduced and forfeited by the amount of benefits payable under any and all such other severance, separation, change in control and similar plans, policies, agreements or arrangements. 

6.4 Withholding.  
 
There shall be deducted from each payment under the Program all taxes that are required to be withheld by the Company with respect to such payment. The Company shall have the right to reduce any payment by (i) the amount of cash sufficient to provide the amount of said taxes, and (ii) an amount of cash equal to the amount of any contributions that the Eligible Officer has elected to make to any medical, welfare, or retirement plan maintained by the Company in accordance with the terms and provisions of those plans.

6.5 Restriction Against Alienation.  
 
None of the benefits, payments, proceeds or claims of any Eligible Officer shall be subject to any claim of any creditor and, in particular, the same shall not be subject to attachment or garnishment or other legal process by any creditor, nor shall any such Eligible Officer have any right to alienate, anticipate, commute, pledge, encumber or assign any of the benefits or payments or proceeds which he or she may expect to receive, contingently or otherwise, under the Program. Notwithstanding the above, benefits which are in pay status may be subject to a garnishment or wage assignment made pursuant to a court order, or a tax levy.  
 
6.6 Governing Law.  
 
The Program shall be construed, administered, and governed in all respects under applicable federal law, and to the extent that federal law is inapplicable, under the laws of the State of New York provided, however, that if 

any provision is susceptible to more than one interpretation, such interpretation shall be given thereto as is consistent with the Program being a “top hat” welfare benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA and Labor Regulations section 2520.104-24. If any provision of this instrument shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be fully effective. 
 
6.7 Headings, etc., Not Part of Agreement.  
 
Headings and subheadings in the Program are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in the construction of the provisions hereof.

6.8 Instrument on Counterparts.  
 
The Program may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and said counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument, which may be sufficiently evidenced by any one counterpart.  
 
6.9 Correction of Errors.

If the Administrator determines, in its sole discretion, that the Program has made an overpayment to any individual, the Administrator may recover the amount of the overpayment by requiring the payee to return the excess payments to the Program, reducing any future Program payments to the payee, or any other method deemed reasonable by the Administrator.

If the Administrator determines, in its sole discretion, that the Program has made an underpayment to any individual, the Administrator may correct the underpayment by making a lump-sum payment to the payee, increasing any future Plan payments to the payee, or any other method deemed reasonable by the Administrator.

6.11 Claims and Issues.

From time to time, claims or issues may arise that involve the Program. The resolution, settlement or adjudication of these claims or issues may result in an agreement or order that is not expressly contemplated under the Program document, including the payment of benefits which differ from the amounts generally payable under the Program. Any such agreements and orders will be respected to the extent that, as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator, they do not violate any applicable statute, government regulation or ruling.

6.12 Entire Agreement

This Program contains the entire agreement and understanding with respect to the matters covered herein and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, commitments, consents, agreements and writings with respect to matters covered by this Program.

6.13 Construction.  
 

As used in the Program, the masculine gender shall include the feminine and the singular may include the plural, unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary.
