(iii) they have performed certain other procedures as a result of which they determined that the information described in a letter to be delivered to the Representatives on behalf of the Underwriters of an accounting, financial or statistical nature (which is limited to accounting, financial or statistical information that has been obtained from accounting records which are subject to controls over financial reporting or which has been derived directly from such accounting records by analysis or computation) set forth in the Registration Statement, as amended, the Final Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, and in Exhibit 12 to the Registration Statement (including selected accounting, financial or statistical information included or therein), agrees with accounting records or schedules made from such accounting records which are subject to controls over financial reporting or which has been derived directly from such accounting records by analysis or computation.
(f) Subsequent to the respective dates of which information is given in the Registration Statement, Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement on or after the Execution Time), there shall not have been (i)
13
any material change in the capital stock (other than upon exercise of outstanding stock options) or any significant increase in long-term debt of the Company or its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (ii) any material adverse change, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change, in or affecting the financial condition, earnings, business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, is, in the judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering, sale or the delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus.
(g) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to the Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as the Representatives may reasonably request.
(h) Subsequent to the Execution Time, there shall not have been any decrease in the ratings of any of the Securities by Xxxxx’x Investor’s Service, Inc. (“Xxxxx’x”) or Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“S&P”) and neither Xxxxx’x nor S&P shall have publicly announced that it has placed any of the Securities on a credit watch with negative implications, except as disclosed prior to the Execution Time.
If any of the conditions specified in this Section 5 shall not have been fulfilled in all material respects when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and their counsel, this Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be terminated at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representatives. Notice of such termination shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing.
6. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates and selling agents and each person who controls any Underwriter, its affiliates and selling agents within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other U.S. federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of the Securities as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any preliminary prospectus, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the information contained in the final term sheet required to be prepared and filed pursuant to Section 4(h) hereof, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party for
14
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred, as such expenses are incurred, by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives for use in connection with the preparation thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have.
(b) Each Underwriter severally (and not jointly) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but only with reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use in the preparation of the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that the statements set forth in the third and sixth paragraphs under the heading “Underwriting” of the Final Prospectus and the Disclosure Package, constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters for inclusion in the Final Prospectus and the Disclosure Package, and you, as the Representatives, confirm that such statements are correct.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 6, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under this Section 6 or otherwise. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to appoint counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party to represent the indemnified party in such action; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to appoint counsel to defend such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 6 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood,
15
however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel), approved by the Representatives in the case of paragraph (a) of this Section 6, representing the indemnified parties under such paragraph (a) who are parties to such action), (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party; and except that, if clause (i) or (iii) is applicable, such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel referred to in such clause (i) or (iii). No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is a party and indemnity was sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is due in accordance with its terms but is for any reason held by a court to be unavailable from the Company or the Underwriters on grounds of policy or otherwise, the Company and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) to which the Company and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), (y) in no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided in any agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the Securities) be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount applicable to the Securities purchased by such Underwriter hereunder and (z) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 6, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and
16
each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to clauses (y) and (z) of this paragraph (d). Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties under this paragraph (d), notify in writing such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have hereunder or otherwise than under this paragraph (d). The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7(d) are several in proportion to their respective underwriting commitments as set forth on Schedule II hereto, and not joint.
7. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters of that series of Securities shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule II hereto for that particular series of Securities bears to the aggregate amount of such Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate amount of all of the Securities set forth in Schedule II hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter or the Company. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 7, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding seven days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company and any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.
8. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if prior to such time (i) trading in securities generally on The New York Stock Exchange or trading of the Company’s common stock on The New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such exchange, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by U.S. federal or New York State authorities, (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing any major disruption of settlements of securities clearance services in the United States or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or material escalation of
17
hostilities or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable to proceed with the offering, sale and delivery of the Securities.
9. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company or its officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company or any of the officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Section 6 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7 or if for any reason the purchase of the Securities by the Underwriters is not consummated, the Company and the Underwriters shall remain responsible for their respective expenses and reimbursements pursuant to Section 4 and the respective obligations of the Company and the Underwriters pursuant to Section 6 shall remain in effect.
10. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representatives, will be mailed, delivered or faxed and confirmed to them, at the address specified in Schedule I hereto; or, if sent to the Company, will be mailed, delivered or faxed and confirmed to it, at Hewlett-Packard Company, 0000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, XX0000, Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000; attention of the Treasurer, fax (000) 000-0000, with a copy to the General Counsel, Hewlett-Packard Company, 0000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, XX0000, Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, fax (000) 000-0000.
11. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 6 hereof, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder.
12. Applicable Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
13. Arm’s Length Transaction. The company acknowledges that each of the Underwriters is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to the offering of Securities contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or any agent of, the Company or any other person. Additionally, no Underwriter is advising the Company or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Underwriters shall have no responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto. Any review by the Underwriters of the Company, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Underwriters and shall not be on behalf of the Company.

Floating Interest Rate Provisions:
The Floating Rate Global Notes will bear interest for each interest period at a rate determined by the calculation agent. The calculation agent is The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A, until such time as HP appoints a successor calculation agent. The interest rate on the Floating Rate Global Notes for a particular interest period will be a per annum rate equal to three-month USD LIBOR as determined on the interest determination date plus 1.55%. The interest determination date for an interest period will be the second London business day preceding the first day of such interest period. Promptly upon determination, the calculation agent will inform the Trustee and HP of the interest rate for the next interest period. Absent manifest error, the determination of the interest rate by the calculation agent shall be binding and conclusive on the holders of the Floating Rate Global Notes, the Trustee and HP. A London business day is a day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market.
I-2
Interest on the Floating Rate Global Notes will be paid to but excluding the relevant Interest Payment Date. Interest payments on the Floating Rate Global Notes will be made quarterly in arrears on March 19, June 19, September 19 and December 19 of each year, commencing December 19, 2011 to the person in whose name the Floating Rate Global Notes are registered at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date. Interest on the Floating Rate Global Notes will accrue from and including September 19, 2011, to but excluding the first Interest Payment Date and then from and including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for to but excluding the next Interest Payment Date or date of Maturity, as the case may be. Each of these periods is referred to as an “interest period.” The amount of accrued interest that HP will pay for any interest period shall be calculated by multiplying the face amount of the Floating Rate Global Notes then outstanding by an accrued interest factor. This accrued interest factor is computed by adding the interest factor calculated for each day from September 19, 2011, or from the latest date interest was paid to the date for which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each day is computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to that date by 360. If an Interest Payment Date for the Floating Rate Global Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day unless such next succeeding Business Day would be in the following month, in which case, the Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day.
On any interest determination date, LIBOR will be equal to the offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having an index maturity of three months, in amounts of at least $1,000,000, as such rate appears on “Reuters Page LIBOR01” at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such interest determination date. If on an interest determination date, such rate does not appear on the “Reuters Page LIBOR01” as of 11:00 a.m., London time, or if the “Reuters Page LIBOR01” is not available on such date, the calculation agent will obtain such rate from Bloomberg L.P.’s page “BBAM.”
If no offered rate appears on “Reuters Page LIBOR01” or Bloomberg L.P.’s page “BBAM” on an interest determination date at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, then the calculation agent (after consultation with HP) will select four major banks in the London interbank market and shall request each of their principal London offices to provide a quotation of the rate at which three-month deposits in U.S. dollars in amounts of at least $1,000,000 are offered by it to prime banks in the London interbank market, on that date and at that time, that is representative of single transactions at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, LIBOR will be the arithmetic average of the quotations provided. Otherwise, the calculation agent will select three major banks in New York City and shall request each of them to provide a quotation of the rate offered by them at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the interest determination date for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks having an index maturity of three months for the applicable interest period in an amount of at least $1,000,000 that is representative of single transactions at that time. If three quotations are provided, LIBOR will be the
I-3
arithmetic average of the quotations provided. Otherwise, the rate of LIBOR for the next interest period will be set equal to the rate of LIBOR for the then current interest period.
Upon request from any holder of Floating Rate Global Notes, the calculation agent will provide the interest rate in effect for the Floating Rate Global Notes for the current interest period and, if it has been determined, the interest rate to be in effect for the next interest period.
All percentages resulting from any calculation of the interest rate on the Floating Rate Global Notes will be rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point with five one millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) would be rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655)), and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation on the Floating Rate Global Notes will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward). Each calculation of the interest rate on the Floating Rate Global Notes by the calculation agent will (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding on the Holders and HP.
The interest rate on the Floating Rate Global Notes will in no event be higher than the maximum permitted rate by New York law as the same may be modified by United States law of general application.

The Company will have the right to redeem the 2015 Global Notes, in whole or in part on at least 30 days’ but no more than 60 days’ prior written notice mailed to the registered holders of the 2015 Global Notes to be redeemed. The redemption price will be equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the 2015 Global Notes to be redeemed and (2) the sum of the present value of the principal amount of the 2015 Global Notes to be redeemed and the remaining scheduled payments of interest thereon from the redemption date to the maturity date discounted from the scheduled payment dates to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis at the Treasury Rate plus 35 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on the 2015 Global Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with the Trustee or Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain other conditions are satisfied, then on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the 2015 Global Notes (or such portion thereof) called for redemption and such 2015 Global Notes will cease to be outstanding. If any redemption date is not a business day, the Company will pay the redemption price on the next business day without any interest or other payment due to the delay.
If fewer than all of the 2015 Global Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select the 2015 Global Notes for redemption on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee deems appropriate and fair. No 2015 Global Notes of $1,000 or less will be redeemed in part.
