PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE

2002 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREOWNERS

This proxy statement and proxy card are furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at our annual meeting of shareowners, to be held at the Hotel du Pont, 11th and Market Streets, Wilmington, Delaware 19801, on May 16, 2002, at 9:00 a.m. The proxy is solicited by our board of directors. This proxy statement and proxy card are first being sent to our shareowners on or about March 28, 2002.

Why am I receiving this proxy statement and proxy card?

You are receiving a proxy statement and proxy card because you own shares of United Parcel Service, Inc. common stock. This proxy statement describes issues on which we would like you to vote at our annual meeting of shareowners. It also gives you information on these issues so that you can make an informed decision.

When you sign the proxy card, vote by telephone or vote using the Internet, you appoint Michael L. Eskew and Joseph R. Moderow as your representatives at the annual meeting. They will vote your shares as you have instructed them in your proxy at the annual meeting (or, if an issue that is not on the proxy card comes up for vote, in accordance with their best judgment). This way, your shares will be voted whether or not you attend the annual meeting. Even if you plan to attend the annual meeting, we encourage you to sign and return your proxy card, vote by telephone or vote using the Internet in advance of the annual meeting.

Who is entitled to vote?

Holders of our class A common stock (which includes our class A-1, class A-2 and class A-3 common stock) and our class B common stock on the close of business on March 19, 2002 are entitled to vote. March 19, 2002 is referred to as the record date.

In accordance with Delaware law, a list of shareowners entitled to vote at the meeting will be available in electronic form at the place of the annual meeting on May 16, 2002 and will be accessible in electronic form for 10 days prior to the meeting at our principal place of business, 55 Glenlake Parkway, N.E., Atlanta, Georgia 30328, between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.

How many votes is each share of common stock entitled to?

Holders of class A common stock are entitled to ten votes per share. Holders of class B common stock are entitled to one vote per share. On the record date, there were 733,125,341 shares of our class A common stock and 382,337,438 shares of our class B common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

The voting rights of any shareowner or shareowners as a group, other than any of our employee benefit plans, that beneficially own shares representing more than 25% of our voting power are limited so that the shareowner or group may cast only one one-hundredth of a vote with respect to each vote in excess of 25% of the outstanding voting power.

How do I vote?

Shareowners of record can vote by mail, by telephone or by using the Internet as described below. Shareowners also may attend the meeting and vote in person. If you hold class B shares through a bank or broker,

please refer to your proxy card or the information forwarded by your bank or broker to see which options are available to you.

•

You can vote by mail. If you choose to vote by mail, simply mark your proxy, date and sign it, and return it in the postage-paid envelope provided.

•

You can vote by telephone. You can vote by calling the toll-free telephone number noted on your proxy card. Telephone voting is available 24 hours a day and will be accessible until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 15, 2002. Easy-to-follow voice prompts allow you to vote your shares and confirm that your instructions have been properly recorded. Our telephone voting procedures are designed to authenticate shareowners by using individual control numbers. If you vote by telephone, you do not need to return your proxy card.

•

You can vote by using the Internet. You also can choose to vote by using the Internet. The address of the web site for Internet voting is www.proxyvote.com. Internet voting is available 24 hours a day and will be accessible until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 15, 2002. As with telephone voting, you can confirm that your instructions have been properly recorded. If you vote by using the Internet, you do not need to return your proxy card.

The method you use to vote will not limit your right to vote at the annual meeting if you decide to attend in person. Written ballots will be passed out to anyone who wants to vote at the annual meeting. If you hold your shares in “street name”, you must obtain a proxy, executed in your favor, from the holder of record to be able to vote in person at the annual meeting.

How many votes do you need to hold the annual meeting?

Shares are counted as present at the annual meeting if the shareowner either is present and votes in person at the annual meeting or properly has submitted a proxy by mail, by telephone or by using the Internet.

As of March 19, 2002, 733,125,341 shares of our class A common stock and 382,337,438 shares of our class B common stock were outstanding and are entitled to vote at the annual meeting. Shares representing a majority of our issued and outstanding common stock as of the record date must be present at the annual meeting either in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the meeting in order to hold the annual meeting and conduct business. This is called a quorum.

What if I change my mind after I return my proxy?

You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the polls close at the annual meeting. You may do this by:

•

sending written notice of revocation to our Corporate Secretary at 55 Glenlake Parkway, N.E., Atlanta, Georgia 30328;

•

submitting a subsequent proxy by mail, telephone or Internet with a later date; or

•

voting in person at the annual meeting.

Attendance at the meeting will not by itself revoke a proxy.

What am I voting on?

You are being asked to vote on two items:

•

the election of a board of directors to serve until our 2003 annual meeting of shareowners; and

•

the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent auditors, as our auditors for the year ending December 31, 2002.

No cumulative voting rights are authorized, and dissenters’ rights are not applicable to these matters.

How may I vote for the nominees for election of director, and how many votes must the nominees receive to be elected?

With respect to the election of nominees for director, you may:

•

vote FOR the election of the twelve nominees for director;

•

WITHHOLD AUTHORITY to vote for one or more of the nominees and vote FOR the remaining nominees; or

•

WITHHOLD AUTHORITY to vote for the twelve nominees.

The twelve nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes will be elected as directors. This number is called a plurality. Accordingly, a vote withheld from a nominee for director has the same effect as a vote against the nominee.

What happens if a nominee is unable to stand for election?

If a nominee is unable to stand for election, the board may, by resolution, provide for a lesser number of directors or designate a substitute nominee. If the board designates a substitute nominee, shares represented by proxies voted for the nominees named in this proxy statement will be voted for the substitute nominee.

How may I vote for the ratification of the appointment of our auditors, and how many votes must the proposal receive to pass?

With respect to the proposal to ratify the appointment of our auditors, you may:

•

vote FOR the proposal;

•

vote AGAINST the proposal; or

•

ABSTAIN from voting on the proposal.

The ratification of the appointment of our auditors must receive the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present at the annual meeting either in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the annual meeting to pass. If you abstain from voting on the proposal, it will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal.

How does the board of directors recommend that I vote?

The board recommends a vote FOR all of the director nominees and FOR the ratification of the appointment of our auditors.

What happens if I sign and return my proxy card but do not provide voting instructions?

If you return a signed card but do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted FOR the director nominees and FOR the ratification of the appointment of our auditors.

Will my shares be voted if I do not sign and return my proxy card, vote by telephone or vote by using the Internet?

If you own class A shares and you do not sign and return your proxy card, vote by telephone or vote by using the Internet, then your class A shares will not be voted and will not count in deciding the matters presented for shareowner consideration in this proxy statement.

If your class B shares are held in “street name” through a bank or broker, your bank or broker may vote your class B shares under certain circumstances if you do not provide voting instructions before the annual meeting in accordance with New York Stock Exchange rules that govern the banks and brokers. These circumstances

include “routine” matters, such as the election of directors and ratification of the appointment of our auditors described in this proxy statement. Therefore, if you do not vote your proxy, your bank or broker may either vote your shares on these routine matters, or leave your shares unvoted.

Can I receive future proxy materials and annual reports electronically?

Yes. The Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement and the 2001 Annual Report to Shareowners are available on our Internet site at www.ups.com. Instead of receiving paper copies in the mail, shareowners can elect to receive an e-mail that provides a link to our future annual reports and proxy materials on the Internet. Opting to receive your proxy materials online will save us the cost of producing and mailing documents to your home or business, and will give you an automatic link to the proxy voting site.

If you are a shareowner of record and wish to enroll in the electronic proxy delivery service, you may do so by going to www.icsdelivery.com/ups and following the prompts.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

(Proposal No. 1)

There are 12 nominees to our board of directors this year. All nominees have served as directors since our last annual meeting. All directors are elected annually to serve until the next annual meeting and until their respective successors are elected.

Oz Nelson, our former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, is retiring from the board at this year’s annual meeting. We thank him for his 19 years of dedicated service to the board and 43 years of dedicated service to UPS.

The board of directors recommends a vote FOR the election

to the board of each of the following nominees.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

Our board of directors held five meetings during 2001. Each of our directors attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of the board and any committees of which he or she was a member.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our board of directors has four committees: the Executive Committee, the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Executive Committee. Cal Darden, Mike Eskew, Joe Moderow, Lea Soupata and Tom Weidemeyer are the members of our Executive Committee. Jim Kelly was a member of the Executive Committee throughout 2001.

In 2001, the Executive Committee held 15 meetings.

Audit Committee. Bill Brown, Ann Livermore and John Thompson are the members of our Audit Committee. The primary responsibilities of the Audit Committee are to review our financial statements contained in filings with the SEC, to review matters relating to the audit of our financial statements and other services provided by our independent auditors and to recommend the appointment of our independent auditors to the board of directors for its consideration and approval, subject to ratification by our shareowners. In 2001, the Audit Committee held six meetings.

Compensation Committee. Ann Livermore, Vic Pelson and Bob Teeter are the members of our Compensation Committee. The primary responsibility of the Compensation Committee is to set the compensation of our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and to set the compensation of other executive officers based upon the recommendation of our Chief Executive Officer.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Jim Kelly, Gary MacDougal, Oz Nelson and Bob Teeter are the members of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assists the board of directors in identifying, screening and recommending qualified candidates to serve as directors and in maintaining oversight of the board of directors’ operations and effectiveness. In 2001, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held two meetings.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider nominees proposed by shareowners. Any shareowner who wishes to recommend a prospective nominee for the board of directors for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may do so by submitting the candidate’s name and qualifications in writing to the following address: United Parcel Service, Inc., 55 Glenlake Parkway, N.E., Atlanta, Georgia 30328, Attn: Corporate Secretary.

This number is calculated by subtracting the option exercise price from the closing price of our class B common stock on December 31, 2001 ($54.50) to get the “average value per option,” and multiplying the average value per option by the number of unexercised options. The amounts in this column may not represent amounts that actually can be realized.

Retirement Plans

The following table shows the estimated annual retirement benefit payable on a single-life-only annuity basis to participating employees, including our named executive officers, under the UPS Retirement Plan and UPS Excess Coordinating Benefit Plan upon retirement, assumed to occur at age 65. Participating employees also are entitled to receive $18,432 per year, the maximum currently payable in primary Social Security benefits. Participants who elect forms of payment with survivor options will receive lesser amounts than those shown in this table.

The compensation upon which the benefits are summarized in the table above includes salary and bonuses awarded under the United Parcel Service, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan. The average final compensation for each participant in the plans is the average covered compensation of the participant during the five highest consecutive years out of the last ten full calendar years of service.

Benefits payable under the UPS Retirement Plan are subject to the maximum compensation limits and the annual benefit limits for a tax qualified defined benefit plan as prescribed and adjusted from time to time by the Internal Revenue Service. Amounts exceeding these limits will be paid pursuant to the UPS Excess Coordinating Benefit Plan. Under this plan, participants may choose to receive the benefit in the form of a life annuity, cash lump sum or life insurance with a cash value up to 100% of the present value of the benefit.

As of December 31, 2001, estimated or actual credited years of service under the plans to our named executive officers were as follows: Kelly — 37, Eskew — 30, Moderow — 31, Weidemeyer — 30 and Soupata — 32.

The plans permit participants with 25 or more years of benefit service to retire as early as age 55 with only a limited reduction, or no reduction, in the amount of their monthly benefits. Prior to January 1, 2001, the plans limited credit years of service to 35.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

The Compensation Committee of the board of directors has responsibility for determining the salary of the Chief Executive Officer, and for approving the salaries of all other executive officers after the Chief Executive Officer’s recommendation. The Committee also determines the eligibility and levels of participation of executive officers under the United Parcel Service, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan. The compensation department of the Human Resources group and independent compensation consultants assist the Committee.

One of UPS’s most important compensation policies is the historical focus on the “manager-owner” concept, which has played a central role in UPS’s success. Throughout its history, UPS has been owned by its employees and managed by its owners. To achieve this objective, compensation plans such as the UPS Managers Incentive Plan, the UPS 1996 Stock Option Plan, UPS Qualified Stock Ownership Plan, UPS Discounted Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the United Parcel Service, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan have facilitated stock ownership by management employees.

UPS has a long-standing policy of promotion from within, wherever possible, which has significantly reduced, relative to other companies, the need to externally hire managers and executive officers. To a high degree, employees who have spent virtually their entire careers with UPS comprise the overall management organization.

These policies have influenced strongly executive compensation. The named executive officers are long-term employees, each with 30 or more years of service. Because plans are designed to foster stock ownership by managers, each executive officer has accumulated a meaningful number of shares of UPS common stock. As a result, the interests of shareowners and our executive officers are closely aligned, and the executive officers have strong incentives to provide for our effective management. In the case of the named executive officers, annual appreciation derived from stock ownership, dividends, stock options and management incentive awards granted in the form of UPS stock exceeds direct cash compensation. Of the forms of compensation in use, management incentive awards granted in the form of UPS stock are most directly keyed to corporate performance because the aggregate amount available for distribution is based on profits.

With respect to cash compensation, the Committee reviews data received directly from consultants concerning compensation for comparable positions at companies that have similar revenues, irrespective of the financial performance of those companies. The 2001 salary of each executive officer, including that of the Chief Executive Officer, generally was less than median compensation levels at similarly sized companies. The companies used for executive compensation comparisons are not limited to the companies that comprise the S&P 500 Index and the Dow Jones Transport Average used in the shareowner return performance graph contained in our proxy statement.

To determine the appropriate Chief Executive Officer compensation and approve the appropriate compensation of each executive officer, the Committee exercises its judgment based on considerations including overall responsibilities and the importance of these responsibilities to UPS’s success, experience and ability, past short-term and long-term job performance and salary history. A significant factor in determining annual salary increases is the Committee’s strong desire to keep the compensation levels of executive officers equitable in comparison with the compensation of other executives with similar responsibilities at comparable companies and when compared to the compensation of other UPS management positions. The Committee places a strong emphasis on teamwork, so annual base salaries are not solely dependent on objective, corporate performance standards for any executive officer.

The Committee recommended and the Board approved a base salary increase during 2001 for Jim Kelly that reflected Jim’s strategic vision and leadership, UPS’s business and operational results, and Jim’s ability to position UPS as the premier enabler of global commerce. The Committee did not assign particular weights to these factors.

Management incentive awards granted in the form of UPS stock under the United Parcel Service, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan are determined by a formula that takes into consideration profits, monthly salary, the number of participants and the level of participation. The level of participation for the Chief Executive Officer and executive officers is the same as for approximately 11,000 participating employees at or above the center manager level.

Options granted under the United Parcel Service, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan are long-term options intended to promote continuity of employment and to provide an additional opportunity for stock ownership. Generally, eligible employees include division managers, district department managers and others having equivalent or greater responsibilities. The number of options granted is based on salary and level of participation.

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code makes compensation paid to certain executives in amounts in excess of $1 million not deductible unless the compensation is paid under a predetermined objective performance plan meeting certain requirements, or satisfies one of various other exemptions. The Committee has not adopted a policy that all compensation be deductible under Section 162(m) in order to preserve the Committee’s flexibility to compensate executive officers.

Compensation of Directors

In 2001, directors who were not our employees received an annual director’s fee of $55,000. Members of our Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees who were not our employees received an additional annual fee of $5,000 for each committee on which they served, and committee chairpersons received an additional annual fee of $8,000.

In February 2001, we granted to each of our non-employee directors 416 performance shares under the United Parcel Service, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan. The number of shares was determined by dividing the grant amount equivalent of $25,000 by the fair market value of UPS common stock on the date of the grant. In March 2001, we granted 1,411 options to each of our non-employee directors under the United Parcel Service, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan.

We established a retirement plan in February 1991 that provided retirement and disability benefits for directors who were neither employees nor former employees. Effective January 1, 1997, our board discontinued this plan and instead increased the options that non-employee directors were eligible to receive under the UPS 1996 Stock Option Plan. At the discretion of our board of directors, non-employee directors may now receive grants of options and performance shares.

To satisfy the obligations accrued under this discontinued retirement plan, our board of directors allocated to Bill Brown, Gary MacDougal, Vic Pelson and Bob Teeter dollar amounts that appreciate or depreciate in tandem with the changes in the share price of our common stock, inclusive of dividends. At the time each director ceases to serve on our board, he may elect to have the account balance track the performance of selected investments, and the total value of his account will be payable to him, or his designated beneficiary, at his option, in a lump sum, in annual payments over five years or in annual payments over ten years. The value of these accounts at December 31, 2001 was as follows: Brown — $1,309,594; MacDougal — $1,309,594; Pelson — $654,797; Teeter — $654,797.

Non-employee directors also have the option of deferring some or all of the fees and/or retainer payable in connection with their services on our board. Deferred amounts track the performance of investments selected by each non-employee director, although no funds are set aside or invested. At the time a participating non-employee director ceases to be a director, the total value of the non-employee director’s account will be payable to him or her, or his or her designated beneficiary, at his or her election, in a lump sum, in monthly payments over five years or in monthly payments over ten years.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

Vic Pelson, Ann Livermore and Bob Teeter were members of the Compensation Committee of our board of directors during 2001. None of these directors are employees or former employees of UPS. None of the members of the Compensation Committee has any direct or indirect material interest in or relationship with us outside of his or her position as a non-employee director. None of our executive officers serves as a member of a board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers who serves on our board of directors or Compensation Committee.

SHAREOWNER RETURN PERFORMANCE GRAPH

The following graph shows a five-year comparison, prepared in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, of cumulative total shareowners’ returns for our common stock, the S&P 500 Index and the Dow Jones Transport Average. The comparison of the total cumulative return on investment, which is the change in the quarterly stock price plus reinvested dividends for each of the quarterly periods, assumes that $100 was invested on December 31, 1996 in the S&P 500 Index, the Dow Jones Transport Average and the common stock of United Parcel Service of America, Inc. (each share of which was converted into two shares of class A common stock of United Parcel Service, Inc. in November 1999). Although there is no public market for our class A common stock, it is convertible on a one-for-one basis into our class B common stock, which trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “UPS.” The graph below assumes that our class A shares and class B shares have the same value.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee of our board of directors is responsible for, among other things, reviewing with Deloitte & Touche LLP, our independent auditors, the scope and results of their audit engagement. In connection with the 2001 audit, the Audit Committee has:

•

reviewed and discussed with management UPS’s audited financial statements to be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001,

•

discussed with Deloitte & Touche the matters required by Statement of Accounting Standards No. 61, as amended, and

•

received from and discussed with Deloitte & Touche the communications from Deloitte & Touche required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 regarding their independence.

Based on the review and the discussions described in the preceding bullet points, the Audit Committee has recommended to the board of directors that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Audit Committee has adopted a charter. The members of the Audit Committee have been determined to be independent in accordance with the requirements of Section 303.01 (B) (2) (a) and (3) of the New York Stock Exchange listing standards.

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS

(Proposal No. 2)

Our board of directors has appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent auditors, to audit our consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2002 and to prepare a report on this audit. A representative of Deloitte & Touche will be present at the annual meeting of shareowners, have the opportunity to make a statement and be available to respond to appropriate questions by shareowners.

The board of directors recommends that shareowners vote FOR the ratification

of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our auditors.

Audit Fees

The aggregate fees billed by Deloitte & Touche LLP, the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, and their respective affiliates (collectively, “Deloitte & Touche”) for professional services rendered for the audit of UPS’s annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001, including opening balance sheet audits performed in connection with certain significant acquisitions, and for the reviews of the financial statements included in UPS’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the same fiscal year, were $1,889,000.

Financial Information Systems Design and Implementation Fees

There were no fees billed by Deloitte & Touche for professional services rendered for information technology services relating to financial information systems design and implementation for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001.

All Other Fees

The aggregate fees for all other services rendered by Deloitte & Touche for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001 were $5,946,000, including audit-related services of $4,138,000 and other non-audit services of $1,808,000. Audit-related services include fees for due diligence services in connection with business acquisitions, statutory audits of foreign subsidiary financial statements and employee benefit plan audits, services associated with securities filings and accounting consultations. Other non-audit services primarily include fees for tax consultations and assistance.

The Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of audit-related and other non-audit services by Deloitte & Touche is compatible with maintaining Deloitte & Touche’s independence.

CERTAIN BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS

William H. Brown, III, a member of our board of directors, serves as senior counsel to Schnader Harrison Segal & Lewis LLP, a law firm that provides legal services to us from time to time.

COMMON RELATIONSHIPS WITH OVERSEAS PARTNERS LTD.

Overseas Partners Ltd., or OPL, is a Bermuda-based company that is engaged in reinsurance and other businesses. OPL was incorporated under Bermuda law in June 1983 as our wholly owned subsidiary. OPL was spun-off to UPS’s shareowners as a taxable dividend and, as of January 1, 1984, was no longer a UPS subsidiary. At least a majority of the owners of our class A common stock are shareowners of OPL. Two of our executive officers and one of our former executive officers are directors of OPL.

OPL’s business includes leasing real property to our subsidiaries through Overseas Partners Capital Corporation, or OPCC, a wholly owned subsidiary of OPL. In December 1989, OPCC acquired from us our Ramapo Ridge facility. Beginning in July 1990, we leased this facility for an initial term ending in 2019. We use this facility as a data processing, telecommunications and operations center. In 2001, OPCC and its subsidiary, OPL Funding, received rental payments of approximately $18.6 million in the aggregate from us pursuant to the lease. In January 2002, we purchased the Ramapo Ridge facility from OPCC.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors, executive officers and persons who own beneficially more than 10% of either our class A or class B common stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of such stock with the SEC. These persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file with the SEC. To our knowledge, our directors and executive officers complied during 2001 with all applicable Section 16(a) filing requirements.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

We will pay our costs of soliciting proxies. Directors, officers and other employees may solicit proxies by mail, in person or by telecommunication. We have engaged Automatic Data Processing to assist us in the proxy solicitation process and will pay that firm approximately $15,000 for its services. We will not pay any additional compensation, except reimbursement for actual expenses, for this solicitation. We will reimburse brokers, fiduciaries, custodians and other nominees for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in sending our proxy materials to, and obtaining instructions relating to the proxy materials from, beneficial owners.

HOUSEHOLDING

In 2001, we adopted a new procedure approved by the SEC called “householding.” Under this procedure, multiple shareowners who share the same last name and address and do not participate in electronic delivery will receive only one copy of the annual proxy materials, unless they notify us that they wish to continue receiving multiple copies. We have undertaken householding to reduce our printing costs and postage fees.

If you wish to opt-out of householding and continue to receive multiple copies of the proxy materials at the same address, you may do so at any time prior to thirty days before the mailing of proxy materials, which typically are mailed in March of each year, by notifying us in writing or by telephone at: UPS Investor Relations, 55 Glenlake Parkway, N.E., Atlanta, Georgia 30328, (404) 828-6059. You also may request additional copies of the proxy materials by notifying us in writing or by telephone at the same address or telephone number.

If you share an address with another shareowner and currently are receiving multiple copies of the proxy materials, you may request householding by notifying us at the above-referenced address or telephone number.

OTHER BUSINESS

Our board of directors is not aware of any business to be conducted at the annual meeting of shareowners other than the proposals described in this proxy statement. Should any other matter requiring a vote of the shareowners arise, the persons named in the accompanying proxy card will vote in accordance with their best judgment.

Under our bylaws and SEC regulations, any shareowner proposals or director nominations for the 2003 annual meeting of shareowners must be received by our Corporate Secretary not later than November 26, 2002, and proxies may not exercise their discretionary voting authority with respect to shareowner proposals that were timely received.

A copy of our 2001 annual report on Form 10-K, including financial statements, as filed with the SEC, may be obtained without charge upon written request to: Corporate Secretary, United Parcel Service, Inc., 55 Glenlake Parkway, N.E., Atlanta, Georgia 30328.
