PART I Item 1. Business The Registrant, incorporated in December 1925, serves business, professional and educational markets around the world with information products and services. Key markets include finance, business, education, construction, medical and health, aerospace and defense. As a multimedia publishing and information company, the Registrant employs a broad range of media, including books, magazines, newsletters, software, on-line data services, CD-ROMs, facsimile and television broadcasting. Most of the Registrant's products and services face substantial competition from a variety of sources. The Registrant's 17,135 employees are located worldwide. They perform the vital functions of analyzing the nature of changing demands for information and of channeling the resources necessary to fill those demands. By virtue of the numerous copyrights and licensing, trade, and other agreements, which are essential to such a business, the Registrant is able to collect, compile, and disseminate this information. Most book manufacturing and magazine printing is handled through a number of independent contractors. The Registrant's principal raw material is paper, and the Registrant has assured sources of supply, at competitive prices, adequate for its business needs. Descriptions of the company's principal products, broad services and markets, and significant achievements are hereby incorporated by reference from Exhibit (13), pages 6 through 20, containing textual material of the Registrant's 2001 Annual Report to Shareholders. Information as to Operating Segments The relative contribution of the operating segments of the Registrant and its subsidiaries to operating revenue, operating profit, long-lived assets and geographic information for the three years ended December 31, 2001 at the end of each year, are included in Exhibit (13), on pages 44 and 45 in the Registrant's 2001 Annual Report to Shareholders and is hereby incorporated by reference. 1 Item 2. Properties The Registrant leases office facilities at 335 locations: 263 are in the United States. In addition, the Registrant owns real property at 14 locations: 11 are in the United States. The principal facilities of the Registrant are as follows:

During the first quarter of 2001, we sold the owned facility at 29 Hartwell Ave in Lexington, Massachusetts. In July 2001, we leased an additional floor at 2 Penn Plaza, totaling 58,770 square feet. The lease will be through the period ending March 31, 2020. During the third quarter of 2001, we sold the owned facility at Western Avenue in Chicago, Illinois. During the fourth quarter of 2001, we bought the formerly leased TV station facility in Indianapolis, Indiana. 3 Item 3. Legal Proceedings In Registrant's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2001, Registrant reported that a summons was served on June 20, 2001 in an action brought by L'Association Francaise des Porteurs d'Emprunts Russes (AFPER) against Standard & Poor's SA (an indirect subsidiary of the Registrant) in the Court of First Instance of Paris, France. In this suit, AFPER, a group of holders of pre-Revolutionary Russian bonds, makes claims against Standard & Poor's and another rating agency for lack of diligence and prudence in their ratings of Russia and Russian debt. AFPER alleges that, by failing to take into account the post-Revolutionary repudiation of pre-Revolutionary Czarist debt by the Soviet government in rating Russia and new issues of Russian debt beginning in 1996, the rating agencies enabled the Russian Federation to issue new debt without repaying the old obligations of the Czarist government. Alleging joint and several liability, AFPER seeks damages of 17.85 billion francs (approximately $2.38 billion), plus 50,000 francs (approximately $7,000) under certain provisions of the French Code of Civil Procedure and legal costs. The Registrant believes that the allegations lack legal or factual merit and intends to vigorously contest the action. Item 4.
