XEROX CORPORATION
PROFIT SHARING AND SAVINGS PLAN

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2000 and 1999



(1)  Description of Plan and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following description of the Xerox Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings
Plan (Plan) provides only general information.  Participants should refer to
the summary plan description and the Plan document for a more complete
description of the Plan's provisions.

(a)  General

The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all full and
part-time U.S. employees of Xerox Corporation (sponsor) and participating
subsidiaries, except those covered by a collective bargaining agreement unless
that agreement calls for participation in the Plan.  Employees are
automatically eligible to participate in the 401(k) savings portion of the
Plan upon date of hire.

(b)  Plan Amendment

In January 2001, the Xerox Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings Plan was
amended to eliminate the cash/deferred component of profit sharing (see note
1(e) for further discussion). The Plan has been renamed the Xerox Corporation
Savings Plan.

Effective January 1, 2000, all employees of Tektronix pursuant to the terms of
the Asset Purchase Agreement dated September 22, 1999 will receive credit for
all hours of service for periods when employed by Tektronix for purposes of
determining eligibility under the Plan. As of January 1, 2000, all assets of
the accounts held under Tektronix 401(k) Plan for each participating employee
were transferred to this plan.

(c)  Payments of Benefits

Upon termination of service, a participant may elect to receive either a lump
sum amount equal to the value of his or her account, or may purchase an annuity
payable from a life insurance company.  There were no benefits allocated from
the Plan for participants at December 31, 2000 and 1999.

(d)  Employee Savings Contributions

Subject to limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, eligible employees may
contribute up to 18% of pay (as defined in the Plan) through a combination of
before-tax and after-tax payroll deductions.  Employees are immediately vested
in their savings contributions.

PROFIT SHARING AND SAVINGS PLAN

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2000 and 1999



(e)  Xerox Profit Sharing Contribution

A profit sharing payout has two components. They are as follows:(i) 50% of the
payout will come in the form of cash which can be deferred to the 401(k)
savings portion of the plan, and (ii) 50% of the payment is provided in the
form of stock options which are not a component of this Plan. Employees are
immediately vested in profit sharing contributions.

The maximum profit sharing payout will be 15%. In any given year, the payout
bears a one-to-one relationship to earnings per share (EPS) growth up to 15%.
However, if EPS growth is below 5%, there is no payment.

For the calendar year ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, the sponsor's EPS
growth was below 5%. In accordance with the plan document, there was no Xerox
Profit Sharing contribution for 2000 and 1999.

Effective January 1, 2001, the Company has eliminated the cash payment
component for any future profit sharing contributions.

(f)  Investment Funds

As further described in note 3, the investment funds are part of the Xerox
Trust Agreement to Fund Retirement Plans (Master Trust). Employees can direct
their plan accounts to one or more of the following ten investment funds:

  International Stock Fund - Invests primarily in stocks of companies outside
the U.S.

  U.S. Stock Fund - Invests primarily in stocks of medium to large U.S.
companies.

  Small Company Stock Fund - Invests primarily in stocks of smaller U.S.
companies.

  Balanced Fund - Fifty/Fifty- Usually invests approximately 50% in stocks and
50% in bonds; some private placements and cash. The mix may shift with the
market outlook.

PROFIT SHARING AND SAVINGS PLAN

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2000 and 1999



Balanced Fund - More Bonds - Usually invests 30% in stocks, most of the rest in
bonds, some private placements and cash.  The mix may shift with market
outlook.

Balanced Fund - More Stocks - Usually invests approximately 70% in stocks, most
of the rest in bonds, some private placements and cash.  The mix may shift with
market outlook.

Enhanced Bond Fund - Invests in bonds with an average intermediate duration;
approximately 70% high quality bonds, and 30% high-yield lower quality bonds.

Income Fund - Invests in short to intermediate duration, high quality bonds.

Xerox Stock Fund - Invests in Xerox Corporation common stock and some cash for
administrative purposes.

Marketplace Window- Offers access to no-load mutual funds outside of Xerox
funds.

(g)  Employee Loan Fund

Participants are permitted to borrow from their profit sharing savings accounts
subject to certain limitations.  The loans are payable over terms up to 14.5
years and bear interest at the quarterly Citibank commercial prime rate in
effect at the time of loan issuance plus 1%.  Principal and interest payments
on the loans are redeposited into the participants' accounts based on their
current investment allocation elections.  At December 31, 2000 and 1999,
market value of loans approximates fair value.


(h)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

a. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets, liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

b.  If available, quoted market prices are used to value investments.  Non-
readily marketable investments are carried at estimated fair value.

c.  Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.  Dividend income is recorded
on the ex-dividend date.  Derivative investments are marked to market on a
daily basis which is reported as margin variation on futures contracts in the
statement of changes in net assets of the Master Trust.

(2)  Federal Income Taxes

The Plan obtained its latest determination letter from the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) on March 31, 1998, covering Plan amendments through March
31, 1997, indicating that the Plan, as designed, was in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.  The Plan administrator
and Plan's internal tax counsel believe that the Plan, as currently designed
and operated, is in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code.  Accordingly, they believe that the Plan was qualified and the
related trust was tax-exempt as of the financial statement date.

As long as the Plan continues to be qualified under present Federal income tax
laws and regulations, participants will not be taxed on company contributions
or on investment earnings on such contributions at the time such contributions
and investment earnings are received by the trustee under the Plan, but may be
subject to tax thereon at such time as they receive distributions under the
Plan.

(3)  Master Trust

As discussed in note 1, the Plan participates in the Master Trust.  The
following other Xerox employee benefit plans also participate in the Master
Trust as of December 31, 2000:

The Profit Sharing Plan of Xerox Corporation and The Xerographic Division,
Union of Needletrades, Industrial and Textile Employees, A.F.L. - C.I.O. -
C.L.C.;

Xerox Corporation Retirement Income Guarantee Plan; and

Retirement Income Guarantee Plan of Xerox Corporation and The Xerographic
Division, Union of Needletrades, Industrial and Textile Employees, A.F.L. -
C.I.O. - C.L.C.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2000 and 1999


At December 31, 2000, the Master Trust has eight investment pools - the
International Stock Pool, U.S. Stock Pool, Small Company Stock Pool, Other
Equity Pool, Income Fund, Bond Pool, Xerox Stock Fund, and Marketplace Window.

Participants direct their accounts into investment funds, as described in note
1, which participate in the aforementioned investment pools.  Each of the plans
has an ownership interest in one or more of these investment pools in
accordance with that interest as determined by participant fund elections.

The Expense Pool represents net accrued, plan specific administrative expenses
that are attributable to the Other Equity Pool and the Bond Pool, which
comprise the Balanced Fund. It is not an investment pool.

In September 2000, there was a pool restructure. Assets of the Other Fixed
Pool were transferred to the Bond Pool.

Master Trust investments are managed by selected investment managers under the
direction of the Treasurer of Xerox Corporation.  The Finance Committee of the
Xerox Corporation Board of Directors is responsible for establishing investment
objectives and policies, reviewing the investment decisions of the Treasurer
and reviewing the investment results of the Master Trust.  The Finance
Committee of the Xerox Corporation Board of Directors consists, at present, of
six members of the Xerox Corporation Board of Directors, none of whom are
officers of Xerox Corporation.

Marketable securities are valued at the last reported sales price on the last
business day of the year.  Quotations are obtained from national securities
exchanges or, in instances where securities are not listed on any of the
exchanges, quotations are obtained from brokerage firms.

Non-readily marketable investments, which include private placements, are
carried at fair value, based upon the cost of the investments, developments
concerning the portfolio investments of the private placements, and other
factors as the managing general partners of these investments may deem
relevant. Private placement investments are valued by the investment manager
general partner on a periodic basis and these values are reflected in the
Plans as they are received from the Trustee. The valuations do not necessarily
represent amounts which might ultimately be realized from the investments.

At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Master Trust held no investment contracts
with insurance companies or banks.

The Master Trust invests in real estate group trusts. These trusts provide
pension and profit sharing plans with a medium for pooling their funds for
investment in income producing real estate. The investment trusts value real
estate holdings at estimated market value based upon independent appraisals,
consideration of significant changes in economic circumstances, and capital
additions made to properties after the appraisal date. Such market value
estimates necessarily involve subjective judgments. Accordingly, the actual
market price of the real estate can only be determined by negotiation between
independent third parties in a sales transaction.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade date basis. Dividend
income is record on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded as
earned. Margin variation represents market fluctuations on futures investments.

December 31, 2000 and 1999

Derivative financial instruments are used by the Master Trust's equity and
balanced portfolio investment managers primarily to alter the fixed
income/equity allocation of the Master Trust's portfolio and to hedge the
currency risk component of the Master Trust's foreign investments.  Certain of
the Master Trust's fixed income investment managers are permitted to use
certain specified types of derivative instruments as part of their respective
strategies.  These strategies include the use of swap agreements and exchange
traded futures and options as substitutes for certain types of fixed income
securities.  Leveraging of the Master Trust's assets and speculation are
prohibited. Currency hedge positions are not permitted to exceed the level of
exposure in the related Master Trust's assets.

The derivatives most commonly used by the investment managers are highly liquid
exchange traded equity and fixed income futures and over-the-counter foreign
exchange forward contracts.  The use of derivative instruments is not believed
to materially increase the credit or market risk of the Master Trust's
investment.

The carrying amount and estimated fair value of derivative financial
instruments at December 31, 2000 and 1999 is $1,193,850,000 and
$1,192,720,000, respectively.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133).
SFAS No. 133 requires that an entity recognize all derivatives and measure
those instruments at fair value.

SFAS No. 133 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
Pursuant to SFAS No. 137, the Plan is required to adopt SFAS No. 133 effective
January 1, 2001.  Management will determine the impact of SFAS No. 133 on the
Plan financial statements for 2001.

Independent Auditors' Report

The Plan Administrator and Participants
Xerox Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of The Xerox Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings Plan (Plan) as
of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related statements of changes in net
assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America.  Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan
as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the changes in net assets available for
plan benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedule of assets
held for investment purposes at December 31, 2000 is presented for the purpose
of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial
statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the
responsibility of the Plan's management.  The supplemental schedule has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.
