SUNGARD DATA SYSTEMS INC.
a Delaware corporation ("Acquiror")
0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx
Xxxxx, XX 00000
DATE: January 15, 1999
BACKGROUND: Shareholder is a shareholder and/or optionholder of, and is an
officer and/or director of, FDP Corp., a Florida corporation (the "Company").
Acquiror, the Company and Development Corp., a Florida corporation and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Acquiror ("Newco"), have entered into an Agreement
and Plan of Reorganization dated as of the date hereof (the "Reorganization
Agreement") and the related Plan of Merger dated as of the date hereof ("Plan"),
providing for the merger of Newco with and into the Company (the "Merger"). The
Reorganization Agreement contemplates that, upon consummation of the Merger, (i)
holders of shares of the common stock of the Company will receive shares of
common stock of Acquiror ("Acquiror Common Stock") in exchange for their shares
of common stock of the Company and (ii) the Company will become a wholly owned
subsidiary of Acquiror. It is accordingly contemplated that Shareholder will
receive shares of Acquiror Common Stock in the Merger. Shareholder is a limited
partner of Key Investments Ltd., a Florida partnership, (the "Partnership")
which owns certain real property used by the Company. Pursuant to that certain
Agreement of Sale dated the date hereof (the "Real Estate Agreement") by and
between the Partnership and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Acquiror ("Acquiror
Sub"), the Partnership will transfer its real property to the Acquiror Sub in
exchange for Acquiror Common Stock. Shareholder understands that the Acquiror
Common Stock being issued in the Merger and under the Real Estate Agreement will
be issued pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-4, and that Shareholder
may be deemed an "affiliate" of Acquiror: (i) as such term is defined for
purposes of paragraphs (c) and (d) of Rule 145 under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Act"); and (ii) for purposes of determining Acquiror's
eligibility to account for the Merger as a "pooling of interests" under
Accounting Series Releases 130 and 135, as amended, of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), and under other applicable "pooling of
interests" accounting requirements.
INTENDING TO BE LEGALLY BOUND, in consideration of the foregoing and
the mutual agreements contained herein and in the Reorganization Agreement and
the Plan, the parties hereto agree as follows: (all of such documents
collectively, the "Organic Documents")
1. Representations and Warranties of Shareholder. Shareholder represents
and warrants to Acquiror as follows:
(a) Shareholder is the holder and "beneficial owner" (as defined in
Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of the number
of shares of common stock of the Company set forth beneath Shareholder's
signature on the signature page hereof (the "Company Shares"), and Shareholder
has good and valid title to the Company Shares, free and clear of any liens,
pledges, security interests, adverse claims, equities, options, proxies,
charges, encumbrances or restrictions of any nature.
(b) Shareholder has carefully read this Affiliate Agreement
and, to the extent Shareholder felt necessary, has discussed with counsel the
limitations imposed on Shareholder's ability to sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of the Company Shares and the shares of Acquiror Common Stock that
Shareholder is to receive in the Merger and under the Real Estate Agreement (the
"Acquiror Shares"). Shareholder fully understands the limitations this Affiliate
Agreement places upon Shareholder's ability to sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of the Company Shares and the Acquiror Shares.
(c) Shareholder understands that the representations,
warranties and covenants set forth in this Affiliate Agreement will be relied

for purposes of determining whether Acquiror should proceed with the Merger.

the meaning of the applicable "pooling of interests" accounting requirements):
(i) Shareholder shall not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose
of, or reduce Shareholder's interest in or risk relating to, (A) any capital
stock of the Company (including, without limitation, the Company Shares and any

whether upon exercise of a stock option or otherwise), except pursuant to and
upon consummation of the Merger, or (B) any option or other right to purchase
any shares of capital stock of the Company, except pursuant to and upon
consummation of the Merger; and
(ii) Shareholder shall not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose
of, or reduce Shareholder's interest in or risk relating to, (A) any shares of
capital stock of Acquiror (including without limitation the Acquiror Shares and
