Unisys Board Approves One-for-Ten Reverse Stock Split

BLUE BELL, Pa., October 6, 2009 – Unisys Corporation (NYSE: UIS) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a one-for-ten reverse stock split of Unisys common stock. The company anticipates the stock split will be effective on or about October 26, 2009. Unisys stockholders had authorized the Board of Directors to approve a reverse stock split at a ratio of between one-for-five and one-for-twenty at the company’s 2009 Annual Meeting in May.

When the reverse stock split becomes effective, every ten shares of issued and outstanding Unisys common stock will automatically be combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock without any change in the par value of the shares. The number of authorized shares of the company's common stock will also be proportionately reduced from 720 million to 72 million.

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Following the completion of the reverse stock split, the company’s transfer agent will aggregate all of the fractional shares that otherwise would have been issued as a result of the reverse stock split and sell those shares. Stockholders who would otherwise hold a fractional share of the company's common stock will receive a cash payment in lieu of such fractional share equal to their pro rata share of the proceeds received by the transfer agent from such sale.
