 The Compensation and Benefit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company (“Board”), has determined it is in the best interests of the Company and
its shareholders to modify the existing terms of Executive’s Change of Control Employment Agreement to ensure the Company will have the continued dedication of Executive, notwithstanding the possibility, threat or occurrence of a Change of
Control. Accordingly, and in return for the consideration being provided to Executive pursuant to the terms of this Addendum, the receipt and sufficiency of which Executive expressly acknowledges, the Compensation and Benefit Committee of the Board
has caused the Company to enter into this Agreement. 
  
 The
parties hereby agree the following language shall replace and supersede the language currently existing in Paragraph 1(c) of Executive’s Change of Control Agreement: 
  
 Paragraph 1(c) to the extent not already vested, all deferred and restricted EDS stock units and/or stock options awarded to
Executive that remain outstanding shall immediately vest, and with the exception of the restrictions set forth in the Employment Agreement with regard to both the sale of stock related to the RSU Grant and exercise applicable to the LTI Stock Option
Grant (which restrictions shall continue to apply to such Grants), shall immediately be freed of any restrictions regarding their sale or transfer (other than any such restrictions arising by operation of law or pursuant to the terms of any
applicable deferral plan), and with regard to all stock options (excluding the LTI Stock Option Grant referred to above), they shall be exercisable for a period of one (1) year from such accelerated vesting, or for the time period provided for in
Executive’s applicable individual award agreement, whichever is longer. 
  
 The parties further agree the following definitions of “Change of Control” and “Exempt Person” shall replace and supercede the existing definitions of “Change of Control” and “Exempt
Person” in Executive’s Change of Control Agreement:

definition are satisfied; 
  
 (ii) Individuals
who, as of the date of this Addendum, constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the Agreement

member of the Incumbent Board; provided, further, that there shall be excluded, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of any actual or threatened election contest that is subject to the
provisions of Rule 14a-11 under the Exchange Act;

 3CHANGE OF CONTROL AGREEMENT- HELLER

 Exhibit 10.6 
  
 CHANGE OF CONTROL 
  
 AGREEMENT 
  
 This AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) by and between Electronic Data Systems Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and
Jeffrey M. Heller (the “Executive”), dated as of the 20th day of March, 2003 (the “Agreement
Effective Date”). 
  
 1. Obligations of the Company Upon a
Change of Control. Upon the consummation of a Change of Control of the Company, the Company shall pay or provide to or in respect of the Executive the following amounts and benefits: 
  
 (a) in a lump sum in cash within 10 days after the date of the Change of Control, an amount equal to the sum of (1) the
Executive’s unpaid Annual Base Salary through the date of the Change of Control, (2) any deferred compensation previously awarded to or earned by the Executive (together with any accrued interest or earnings thereon) and (3) any compensation
for unused vacation time for which the Executive is eligible in accordance with the plans, policies, programs and practices of the Company and its affiliated companies applicable to the Executive immediately prior to the Agreement Effective Date, in
each case to the extent not theretofore paid (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (1), (2) and (3) shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Accrued Obligation”); 
  
 (b) to the extent not already paid, in a lump sum in cash equal to the sum of (x) the base salary the Executive would have
received had the Executive remained employed by the Company until March 20, 2004 and (y) the guaranteed cash component of the Executive’s 2003 bonus as provided in the Employment Agreement, plus the Executive’s pro rata portion of
any cash amount payable under the Company’s 2003 Executive Bonus Plan in excess of the guaranteed cash component (the “Excess Cash Component”) (calculated using as the period of employment that period from January 1, 2003 through the
date of termination in 2003), provided that if the Excess Cash Component has not been determined on the date of payment of such guaranteed cash component, then the Company shall pay to the Executive the Excess Cash Component within two business days
after the date that the Excess Cash Component is determined by the Company; and 
  
 (c) to the extent not already vested, the 40,500 stock options, 150,000 restricted stock units (the “RSU Grant”) and 1,000,000 stock options (the “LTI Stock Option Grant”) granted to the Executive
under the Employment Agreement shall immediately vest. The restrictions set forth in the Employment Agreement on sale applicable to the RSU Grant and the restrictions set forth in the Employment Agreement on exercise applicable to the LTI Stock
Option Grant shall continue to apply. 
  
 2. Non-exclusivity of
Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit the Executive’s continuing or future participation in any plan, program, 

  

 1 

 
policy or practice provided by the Company or any of its affiliated companies and for which the Executive may qualify, nor shall anything herein limit or
otherwise affect such rights as the Executive may have under any contract or agreement with the Company or any of its affiliated companies. Amounts which are vested benefits or which the Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan,
policy, practice or program of or any contract or agreement with the Company or any of its affiliated companies at or subsequent to the date a Change of Control of the Company is consummated shall be payable in accordance with such plan, policy,
practice or program or contract or agreement except as such plan, policy, practice or program is superseded by this Agreement. 
  
 3. Full Settlement. The Company’s obligation to make payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations
hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense, mitigation or other claim, right or action which the Company may have against the Executive or others. The Company agrees to pay promptly as incurred, to the full
extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses which the Executive may reasonably incur as a result of any contest (regardless of the outcome thereof) by the Company, the Executive or others of the validity or enforceability of, or liability
under, any provision of this Agreement or any guarantee of performance thereof (including as a result of any contest by the Executive about the amount of any such payment pursuant to this Agreement), plus in each case interest on any delayed payment
at the Applicable Federal Rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code. 
  
 4. Certain Additional Payments by the Company. 
  
 (a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any accelerated vesting, payment or distribution to or for the benefit of the Executive (whether paid or payable
or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard to any additional payments required under this Section 4) (a “Payment”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by
Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or penalties are incurred by the Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”),
then the Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a “Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes),
including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed
upon the Payments. Executive acknowledges that the Gross-Up Payment can be withheld from Executive by the Company and, instead, paid to the Internal Revenue Service on behalf of the Executive. 
  
 (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 4(c), all determinations required to
be made under this Section 4, including whether and when Gross-Up 

  

 2 

 
Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by KPMG (the
“Accounting Firm”); provided, however, that the Accounting Firm shall not determine that no Excise Tax is payable by the Executive unless it delivers to the Executive a written opinion (the “Accounting Opinion”) that failure to
report the Excise Tax on the Executive’s applicable federal income tax return would not result in the imposition of a negligence or similar penalty. In the event that KPMG has served, at any time during the two years immediately preceding the
date of a Change in Control, as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group that is involved in effecting or has any material interest in the Change in Control, the Executive shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm
to make the determinations and perform the other functions specified in this Section 4 (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the
Company. Within 15 business days after the receipt of notice from the Executive that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company, the Accounting Firm shall make all determinations required under this Section 4,
shall provide to the Company and the Executive a written report setting forth such determinations, together with detailed supporting calculations, and, if the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable, shall deliver the Accounting
Opinion to the Executive. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 4, shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within five days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm’s determination. Subject to the remainder of this
Section 4, any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm
hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by the Company should have been made (“Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that it is ultimately
determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4(c) that the Executive is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment
shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive. 
  
 (c) The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claims by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be
given as soon as practicable but no later than 30 days after the Executive actually receives notice in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid;
provided, however, that the failure of the Executive to notify the Company of such claim (or to provide any required information with respect thereto) shall not affect any rights granted to the Executive under this Section 4 except to the extent
that the Company is materially prejudiced in the defense of such claim as a direct result of such failure. The Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period following the date on which he gives such notice to the
Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies the 

  

 3 

 
Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive shall: 
  
 (i) give the Company any information reasonably requested by
the Company relating to such claim; 
  
 (ii) take
such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney selected by the
Company and reasonably acceptable to the Executive; 
  
 (iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order effectively to contest such claim; and 
  
 (iv) if the Company elects not to assume and control the defense of such claim, permit the Company to participate in any proceedings
relating to such claim; 
  
 provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay
directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest
and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(c), the Company shall have the right, at its sole option, to assume
the defense of and control all proceedings in connection with such contest, in which case it may pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may
either direct the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial
jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs the Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to the
Executive, on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with
respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and further provided that any extension of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of the Executive with respect to which such contested amount is
claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested amount. Furthermore, the Company’s right to assume the defense of and control the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and
the Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority. 
  

(d) If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 4(c), the Executive becomes entitled to receive any

  

 4 

 
refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject to the Company’s complying with the requirements of Section 4(c)) promptly pay to the
Company the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 4(c), a determination is made
that the Executive shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of 30 days after such determination,
then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid. 
  
 5. Definitions. 
  
 (a) As used in this Agreement, the terms set forth below shall have the
following respective meanings:

 (iii) such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates (A) has any agreement, arrangement or understanding (whether or not in writing) with any other Person (or any Affiliate or Associate thereof)
