| Subject: | Electronic Delivery of Materials for NCR’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders |
For the past several years, as part of our ongoing efforts to improve efficiency and control costs, NCR has posted its annual report and proxy statement (also known as annual meeting materials) on the investor page of its web site and notified employees by e-mail when and where the materials were posted. If you are a U.S.-based employee with an NCR e-mail account and Internet access and:
| • | invest in the NCR stock fund of the NCR Savings Plan (the company’s 401(k) plan); |
4
| • | invest in company stock through the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP); |
| • | Invest in company stock through the Direct Stock Purchase Plan administered by Mellon Investor Services, NCR’s transfer agent; or |
| • | own registered shares of NCR stock (i.e., directly in your own name and not through a bank or broker), |
NCR will electronically deliver to you the 2006 Annual Report and 2007 Proxy Statement in connection with its annual meeting of stockholders this year and will not mail you paper copies of these materials unless you specifically request them. Instead of paper copies mailed to your address of record, you will receive an e-mail directing you to the company’s Investor Relations web site (<http://investor.ncr.com>), where these annual meeting materials can be accessed, viewed and printed at any time at your convenience.
In addition, your proxy card will also be available online. You will have the option of authorizing your proxy to vote at the annual meeting online or through a special telephone voting service. Just like votes cast using paper proxy cards, votes cast over the Internet or telephone are tabulated in a secure manner by an independent third party.
You will receive an e-mail message on or about March 21 describing how to access this year’s annual meeting materials and your proxy card. At that time, you will also be given the information required to authorize your proxy to vote on your behalf at the meeting online or by telephone. Please note that you will need your pre-assigned PIN # to access the online voting system. Your pre-assigned PIN # is the last 4 digits of your social security number, unless you elected to change your PIN # previously in a prior year.
The use of this electronic delivery program is consistent with the company’s objective of improving efficiencies and controlling costs. We appreciate your willingness to use the electronic option to vote and receive future stockholder information. Whatever your choice, we urge you to vote your shares.
Attached is a document containing answers to some of the questions you may have about this process.

Questions and Answers Regarding Electronic Delivery of Materials for NCR’s Annual
Meeting of Stockholders
What documents will be delivered electronically? - The company will send you the links to the annual report, proxy statement and proxy card.
What are the costs to me? - There is no cost to you since you can access the materials electronically via the Internet or NCR.com through your computer at work.
5
May I still get paper copies? - Yes, if at any time you want paper copies of these documents, they will be sent to you free of charge upon request as directed in the e-mail you receive on or about March 21, 2007. However, we encourage you to receive these materials electronically to help reduce printing and postage costs associated with the annual report and proxy statement. These materials will be made available on the Investor page of NCR’s web site (http://investor.ncr.com) and can be accessed, viewed and printed 24-hours-a-day, 7 days-per-week.
How do I authorize my proxy electronically? - At the time you receive the e-mail message describing how to access your annual meeting materials and proxy card, you will also be given the information required to authorize your proxy to vote your shares online or telephonically. Please remember that you will need your pre-assigned PIN # to access this system. Your pre-assigned PIN # is the last 4 digits of your social security number, unless you elected to change your PIN # previously in a prior year.
What if I do not want to receive these documents electronically? - If you do not want to receive these documents electronically, then you can opt-out by clicking onto http://www.icsdelivery.com/ncr and removing your company-provided e-mail account from the database. Please note that you will need your pre-assigned PIN # to access this system. Your pre-assigned PIN # is the last 4 digits of your social security number, unless you elected to change your PIN # previously in a prior year.
Does electronic delivery apply to NCR stock that I have in my brokerage account? - No, this applies only to shares that you may hold directly in your own name, or through a company-sponsored or administered plan such as the NCR Savings Plan, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan or the Direct Stock Purchase Plan.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING DELIVERY OF
STOCKHOLDER DOCUMENTS
(THE “HOUSEHOLDING ELECTION”)
March 19, 2007
Dear Stockholder,
As you may be aware, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted a rule that allows us to send a single copy of our annual reports, proxy statements, prospectuses and other disclosure documents to two or more stockholders sharing the same address if they consent to do so, subject to certain conditions. We believe this “Householding” rule will provide greater convenience for our stockholders, as well as cost savings for us by reducing the number of duplicate documents that are sent to your home. Please note that if you do not respond, you will be deemed to have consented, and Householding will start 60 days after the mailing of this notice.
The Householding election appears on the enclosed proxy card. If you wish to participate in the Householding program, please indicate “YES” when voting your proxy. Your affirmative or implied consent will be perpetual unless you withhold it or revoke it.
If you wish to continue to receive separate annual reports, proxy statements, prospectuses and other disclosure documents for each account in your household, you must withhold your consent to our Householding program by indicating “NO” when voting your proxy.
You may revoke your consent at any time by contacting ADP, either by calling toll-free (800) 542-1061, or by writing to ADP, Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717. If you revoke your consent, you will be removed from the Householding program within 30 days of receipt of your revocation and each stockholder at your address will receive individual copies of our disclosure documents.
8
We strongly encourage your participation in the Householding program, and believe that it will benefit both you and NCR. Not only will it reduce the volume of duplicate information that you receive in your household, but it will also reduce our printing and mailing costs.
Thank you.
Source: Proxy material insert for stockholders requesting electronic access to proxy materials
Dear NCR Stockholder:
You have indicated your preference to view NCR Corporation’s Proxy Statement and Annual Report over the Internet instead of receiving copies in the mail. You can now access the Proxy Statement for the 2007 Annual Meeting and the 2006 Annual Report over the Internet at the following addresses: http://investor.ncr.com/downloads/NCR2006AR.pdf and http://investor.ncr.com/downloads/2007proxy.pdf.
The enclosed proxy card has been provided to you to enable you to cast your vote in one of three convenient ways: (1) via the Internet, (2) by telephone, or (3) by returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope. Whichever method you choose, you are encouraged to vote.
In the future, in addition to accessing future Proxy Statements and Annual Reports over the Internet, you may also elect to receive an e-mail directing you to vote instead of receiving your proxy card in the mail. You can choose this option, when you vote via the Internet, by providing your e-mail address when prompted.
Your contribution towards saving NCR printing and postage costs is greatly appreciated.
Source: Proxy material insert for stockholders having both a registered and a beneficial account
As an investor with multiple positions in NCR Corporation, you will receive in a subsequent mailing, a single copy of the 2006 Annual Report and Notice of 2007 Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement. In our continuing efforts to control costs and provide quality service to our investors, multiple copies of these materials to the same investor are being eliminated whenever possible. As a result, this mailing does not contain a copy of the 2006 Annual Report and Notice of 2007 Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement. Again, this efficiency has been instituted not only to achieve cost savings, but also to respond to requests from many of our stockholders asking that we suppress duplicate copies of materials directed to the same household.
