Attachment to Form 4
L-3 Communications Holdings, Inc.
May 4, 2004
Note 1 On April 30, 2004, the Reporting Person amended a previously reported
hedging arrangement termed a "variable prepaid forward agreement" with
a securities broker relating to 300,000 shares of the Issuer's Common
Stock, $0.01 par value per share ("Shares"). The amendment has, among
other things, extended the maturity of the instrument to May 2, 2005
and reset the cap and floor per share prices. Following the
re-scheduled expiration date, the number of Shares deliverable upon
exercise of such put may vary, reflecting a minimum price of $61.7830
per share and a maximum price of $74.1396 per share for the Shares, in
each case subject to adjustment for dividends received and other
events. This form reflects such amendment in Table II as the
simultaneous disposition of the previously reported put option and the
acquisition of a new put option.
