                         SEVERANCE  PAY  PLAN  SUMMARY



The Equifax Inc. Severance Pay Plan was amended effective January 1, 1998 to
provide a competitive benefit to Equifax employees who are terminated due to job
elimination or office relocation, to simplify the General Release employees must
sign to receive this benefit, and to reduce or eliminate severance paid for poor
performance and conduct-related terminations.

Non-exempt employees terminated due to job elimination, overstaffing or closed
offices will receive two weeks severance pay for the first four years of
employment, plus one additional week of pay for every year beginning the 5th
year they complete with Equifax, with a maximum of 26 weeks.  Exempt employees
will receive four weeks of severance pay for their first year of employment,
plus an additional two weeks pay for every year they complete, with a maximum of
52 weeks.

Non-exempt employees terminated due to poor or unsatisfactory performance who
have been at Equifax less than ten years will receive two weeks of severance
pay, those with at least ten years but less than 15 will receive four weeks, and
those with 15 or more years will receive six weeks severance pay.  Exempt
employees who have been at Equifax for less than five years will receive four
weeks severance pay, those with at least five but less than ten will receive
eight weeks, and those with ten years or more will receive 12 weeks severance
pay.

Payments to employees are made in two ways:  a single lump sum for employees
receiving severance pay of four weeks of less, and bi-weekly for those receiving
severance pay for more than four weeks.

Severance is not paid to employees who voluntarily resign, retire or are
terminated for conduct related issues such as poor attendance, insubordination,
dishonesty, drug/alcohol use or possession, poor conduct, violation of
fundamental procedures or conflict of interest.
