The information contained herein was prepared by SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, a division of SunTrust Capital Markets, Inc. ("SunTrust Robinson Humphrey") in connection with our engagement to render an opinion to the Independent Committee of the Board of Directors of SS&C Technologies, Inc. ("SS&C" or the "Company") with respect to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the consideration to be received by the holders of the Company's common stock that are not affiliated with the acquiring party in a proposed transaction with The Carlyle Group.

SunTrust Robinson Humphrey has relied without independent verification upon the accuracy and completeness of the financial and other information discussed with or reviewed by us for purposes of our analyses. With respect to the financial forecasts of the Company provided to or discussed with us, we have assumed, at the direction of the management of the Company and without independent verification or investigation, that such forecasts have been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available information, estimates and judgments of the management of the Company as to the future financial performance of the Company, and we express no opinion with respect to such forecasts or the assumptions on which the forecasts are based. SunTrust Robinson Humphrey has not conducted a physical inspection of the properties and facilities of the Company and has not made nor obtained any evaluations or appraisals of the assets or liabilities (including, without limitation, any potential environmental liabilities), contingent or otherwise, of the Company. SunTrust Robinson Humphrey's analyses must be considered as a whole. Selecting portions of our analyses, without considering all analyses, would create an incomplete view. Individual estimates of value contained in our analyses are not necessarily indicative of actual value, which may be significantly more or less favorable than as set forth therein.
