Additional Q&D Related to the Merger                                                                                                                                   

    
 Thank you all for taking the time to send questions about the merger. In the week since the transaction was announced, we have received more than 150 emails. Many of the questions were similar in nature so we have condensed them into the Q&A below. Thank you again for taking the time to send us your questions.


How will this merger impact my benefits? Will the merger impact retiree benefits?
There are no plans to change our current benefits programs (e.g., PDO, severance, medical / dental / insurance, scholarships, retiree benefits, general HR policies) as a result of this transaction. However, as we do on a regular basis, we will continue to look at ways to make our plans more cost effective and marketplace competitive.

What will happen to the Ceridian pension plan for U.S. employees?
The U.S. pension plan will continue to be reviewed on a regular basis to ensure that it is cost effective and competitive in the marketplace. This plan was closed to new participants in 1995.

What happens to stock options that expire prior to the transaction being finalized?
Please follow the rules of the plan. Stock options not exercised prior to the expiration date will be forfeited under normal plan provisions.

Are private companies bound by ERISA?
Our plans will continue to be governed by ERISA.

Can you provide additional details about the merger?
In addition to the press release that we issued on May 30th, we have filed the definitive merger agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The filing is available at:

When will our shareholders have the opportunity to vote on the transaction?
All of us are very excited about this transaction and we are working hard to complete it is soon as practicable. As we mentioned in last week’s All Hands meeting, the transaction will be presented to Ceridian shareholders for approval at our next Annual Meeting, which will be scheduled as soon as practicable following the mailing of the proxy materials. In any event, Ceridian intends to hold its Annual Meeting no later than September 21, 2007.

Following the close of the transaction, which company will own what part of Ceridian?
Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. (THL Partners), Fidelity National Financial, Inc. (FNF) and their co-investors will own Ceridian Corporation and all of its business. As such, upon closing, they will own the entire company.

Does Ceridian have to reach certain financial benchmarks before the sale is complete? As an example, will we have to reduce operating expenses by a certain percentage?
There are no such conditions in the merger agreement.

What ‘complementary skills’ do THL Partners and Fidelity National Financial offer that will help Ceridian enhance value to our customers?
THL Partners and FNF have invested in many large business-to-business companies and as a result bring a great deal of experience in the financing and operating of companies such as Ceridian. Both firms also have a number of potential customer relationships that Ceridian could leverage.

Will we still have Sarbanes-Oxley compliance requirements once we are a private company?
As a private company, we will not be subject to some of the regulatory and administrative requirements, including some related to Sarbanes-Oxley, that are associated with being a public company.

Will we continue to operate under the Ceridian name in both Canada and the U.S.?
We do not have plans to change our name at this time.
