EXERCISE OF THE UNDERWRITERS' OVER-ALLOTMENT OPTION. SEE "UNDERWRITING." AS USED
HEREIN,  THE "COMPANY" OR "ACS" REFER  TO AFFILIATED COMPUTER SERVICES, INC. AND
ITS  SUBSIDIARIES  (EXCLUDING  THE  GENIX  GROUP,  INC.  AND  ITS   SUBSIDIARIES
("GENIX"))  UNLESS THE CONTEXT OTHERWISE REQUIRES. PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS OF THE

                                  THE COMPANY
 
    ACS  is  a  nationwide  provider  of  information  technology  services  and
electronic  funds  transfer  ("EFT")   transaction  processing.  The   Company's
information  technology  services  include  data  processing  outsourcing, image
management and  professional  services. The  Company  provides its  services  to
customers   with  time-critical,  transaction-intensive  information  processing
needs. ACS' revenues from continuing operations increased from $146.8 million in
fiscal 1991  to  $313.2 million  in  fiscal  1995, and  income  from  continuing
operations increased from $3.1 million to $17.6 million during the same period.
 
    The Company's data processing outsourcing services are provided to a variety
of    customers   nationwide,   including   retailers,   healthcare   providers,
telecommunications  companies,   wholesale  distributors,   manufacturers,   and
regional,  non-money  center  financial  institutions.  The  Company  utilizes a
variety of proprietary and third party industry-standard software packages  that
can  be matched with  the appropriate hardware platform  to provide flexible and
cost-effective solutions to  customer requirements. ACS  is capitalizing on  the
trend  toward client-server  computing by providing  consulting and transitional
outsourcing services,  including network  and  desktop computer  management,  to
companies  that  are changing  to these  distributed platform  environments. The
Company offers image  management services such  as electronic imaging,  document
imaging,   record  storage  and  retrieval  services,  micrographics  processing
services and high speed  data capture services. Beginning  in January 1995,  ACS
expanded  its  product  offerings  to  include  professional  services  such  as
consulting, contract  programming  and technical  support,  as well  as  network
design  and  systems  integration.  The  Company's  EFT  transaction  processing
business consists primarily of the  operation of a proprietary automated  teller
machine  ("ATM") network consisting of Company owned  ATMs as well as ATMs owned
by third parties. According to industry data as of September 1995, based on  the
number  of network ATMs, the Company's MoneyMaker-SM-  ATM network is one of the
largest proprietary off-premise ATM networks  in the United States. The  Company
operates  a national network of host and  remote data centers that enable ACS to
process transactions for  its outsourcing and  EFT customers in  a rapid,  cost-
effective manner.
 
    ACS  was formed in 1988 to participate in the trend to outsource information
processing to third parties  to enable businesses to  focus on core  operations,
respond  to rapidly changing  technologies and reduce  data processing expenses.
The Company's business  strategy is  to continue  to lower  its unit  processing
costs  by expanding  its customer base  through both internal  marketing and the
acquisition  of  complementary  companies.  Since  inception,  the  Company  has
completed  26 acquisitions (excluding  the Acquisition), which  have resulted in
geographic expansion, growth and diversification of the Company's customer base,
expansion of services and  products offered, and  increased economies of  scale.
Approximately  58% of the increase in the  Company's revenues for the five years
ended June 30,  1995 has  been attributable to  acquisitions. See  "Management's
Discussion    and   Analysis    of   Financial   Condition    and   Results   of
Operations--Overview." The  Company's  marketing  efforts  focus  on  developing
long-term   relationships  with  customers  that  choose  to  outsource  various
information processing requirements, as well as on expanding services offered to
existing customers. The Company had approximately 13,400 information  technology
customers and approximately 3,460 EFT customers as of March 31, 1996.
 
    The Company, a Delaware corporation, maintains its corporate headquarters at
2828 North Haskell Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75204, telephone: (214) 841-6111.

                                THE ACQUISITION
 
    On  May 31, 1996, the Company entered  into an agreement with MCN Investment
to acquire  100%  of the  stock  of Genix,  a  wholly owned  subsidiary  of  MCN
Investment,  for approximately  $137.5 million  in cash.  Genix is  a nationwide
provider of data  processing outsourcing  services. The Company  will close  the
Acquisition prior to the consummation of this offering.
 
    The  Acquisition continues  the Company's strategy  of acquiring information
processing companies to grow  its customer base,  enhance its service  offerings
and  expand its geographic  presence. The Acquisition  provides the Company with
three additional data centers, which  will strengthen the Company's presence  in
the Midwest, Northeast and Southeast, and adds customers in its core outsourcing
business  in new industries, including the  insurance and utility industries, as
well as  in other  industries, particularly  manufacturing, that  ACS  currently
services.
 
    Genix is headquartered in Dearborn, Michigan, with data centers in Dearborn,
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Charlotte, North Carolina. Genix's primary focus is
providing  a diverse set  of data processing  outsourcing solutions to companies
that desire reductions in data processing costs and improvements in the  quality
of  data processing and that seek  assistance in achieving strategic information
processing solutions. Genix's principal outsourcing  service is the delivery  of
data  processing services on a remote basis  from host data centers. The mission
critical application systems processed by Genix for its customers include claims
management, manufacturing,  retail  and  wholesale  distribution  and  financial
systems.  Genix also seeks to capitalize on the growing demand for client-server
computing by offering network and desktop management and support of  distributed
platform  environments.  Genix utilizes  a  variety of  third-party  software in
conjunction  with  appropriate  hardware  platforms  to  provide  flexible   and

<PAGE>
                                  RISK FACTORS
 
    THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED CAREFULLY IN ADDITION TO THE
OTHER  INFORMATION CONTAINED  IN THIS PROSPECTUS  BEFORE PURCHASING  THE CLASS A
COMMON STOCK OFFERED HEREBY.
 
    RELIANCE ON SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS.   The Company's  success is dependent  in
large  part on its  retention of contracts  with certain significant outsourcing
customers. Also, the Company's  five largest customers in  the years ended  June
30,  1994  and 1995  and  the nine  months ended  March  31, 1996  accounted for
approximately 30%, 27%, and 17%, respectively, of the Company's revenues.  While
the  Company believes its relations with its five largest customers for the nine
months ended March 31, 1996 are good and has contracts with each with  remaining
terms  of two to  eight years, the loss  of any of such  customers or a material
decrease in services provided to any such customer could have an adverse  impact
on  the Company. Outsourcing companies  such as ACS incur  a high level of fixed
costs as  a  result  of  significant investments  in  data  processing  centers,
including   computer  hardware  platforms,  computer  software,  facilities  and
customer service infrastructure.  The loss  of any  one significant  outsourcing
customer  can leave an  outsourcing company with  a higher level  of fixed costs
than  is   necessary   to   serve  remaining   customers,   therefore   reducing
profitability.  Other than one customer, which represented 7% of revenues during
the nine months ended March 31, 1996,  no one customer represented more than  3%
of such revenues. Generally, customers of the Company may be lost due to merger,
business  failure, conversion to a competing  data processor or conversion to an
in-house data processing system. In  addition, several of Genix's customers  are
serviced   under  contracts   that  allow   for  early   termination.  See  "The
Acquisition." There  can  be no  assurance  that the  Company  will be  able  to
maintain  long-term relationships with its or Genix's significant customers. See
"Management's Discussion  and Analysis  of Financial  Condition and  Results  of
Operations"  for a discussion of  the contract expiration in  August 1995 of the
Company's historically largest customer as a  result of its acquisition in  1993
by Bank of America Texas, N.A. ("B of A Texas").
 
    COMPETITION  AND  TECHNOLOGICAL  CHANGE.    The  markets  for  the Company's
services are intensely competitive and  highly fragmented. The Company's  market
share  represents a small percentage of the total information processing market.
Many of the  Company's principal competitors  have greater financial,  technical
and operating resources than the Company, and may be able to use their resources
to  adapt more  quickly to  new or  emerging technologies  or to  devote greater
resources to the promotion and sale of their products and services. In addition,
the Company  believes  that its  competitors  will continue  their  practice  of
investing  in or acquiring assets from  large data processing customers in order
to obtain outsourcing contracts. There can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to compete successfully in the future or that competition will not  have
a   material  adverse  effect  on  the  Company's  results  of  operations.  See
"Business-- Competition."
 
    The  market  for  information  processing  services  is  subject  to   rapid
technological  changes and rapid changes in customer requirements. Technological
advances and competition require  the Company to  commit substantial amounts  of
its resources to the operation of multiple hardware platforms, the customization
of  third-party software programs and the  training of customer personnel in the
use of  such hardware  and  software. A  significant  portion of  the  Company's
outsourcing  revenue  is  derived  from data  processing  services  performed on
IBM-compatible mainframe systems.  Technological advances  currently in  process
may result in the development of hardware and software products that are able to
manipulate  large amounts of data  more cost-effectively than existing mainframe
platforms. An acceleration of the  shift towards client-server data  processing,
in  which individual  computers or  groups of  personal computers  and mid-range
systems replace mainframe systems, may adversely affect the Company. The Company
has committed  substantial  amounts  of  its resources  in  the  development  of
outsourcing  solutions  for these  distributed computing  environments. However,
there can be  no assurance that  the Company will  be successful in  customizing
products  and services that incorporate new technology on a timely basis or will
continue to  be  able to  deliver  the services  and  products demanded  by  the
marketplace.
 
    INVESTMENTS  RELATED TO  SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER CONTRACTS.   Large outsourcing
agreements often  require  a  significant capital  investment.  The  Company  is
sometimes required to purchase certain assets from its
 
                                       6
<PAGE>
customers,  such as  data processing fixed  assets and software,  and in limited
circumstances, to make investments in certain securities issued by or to provide
financial incentives to its  non-financial institution customers. The  aggregate
amount  of such items since  the Company's inception through  March 31, 1996 was
approximately $20.4 million. These  items have been recorded  by the Company  at
fair  market value, with the remainder  recorded as intangible assets, which are
then amortized over the term of each contract. The net book value of such  items
was  $11.6 million at March 31, 1996.  The termination of a customer contract or
the deterioration of the financial condition of  a customer has in the past  and
may  in the future  result in an impairment  of the net book  value of the items
recorded. There can be no assurance that  the Company will be successful in  its
ability  to both  finance and properly  evaluate these  items. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
 
    IMPACT OF ACQUISITIONS.  A significant percentage of the Company's  revenues
has   been  attributable   to  acquisitions.  Since   inception,  the  Company's
acquisition  strategy  has  resulted  in  the  completion  of  26   acquisitions
(excluding  the Acquisition). Approximately 58% of the increase in the Company's
revenues for  the  five years  ended  June 30,  1995  has been  attributable  to
acquisitions.  The Company intends to  continue its growth through acquisitions.
There can  be no  assurance that  future acquisition  opportunities will  become
available,  that future acquisitions can be  accomplished on favorable terms, or
that such  acquisitions  will result  in  profitable operations.  Moreover,  the
Company  has  incurred substantial  debt and  non-cash amortization  expenses in
connection with past acquisitions and  will incur additional debt in  connection
with  the  Acquisition. The  Company's  business strategy  to  pursue additional
acquisitions may require the Company to incur additional debt in the future, may
result in  potentially  dilutive  issuance  of  securities  and  may  result  in
increased   goodwill,   intangible   assets   and   amortization   expense.  See
"Business--Business Strategy"  and  "Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
 
    SHARES  ELIGIBLE  FOR FUTURE  SALE.   As of  June 7,  1996, the  Company had
outstanding 12,479,300  shares of  Class A  Common Stock  (assuming  outstanding
stock  options and an outstanding warrant are not exercised and no conversion of
the Company's  Series A  preferred stock  (the "Series  A Preferred  Stock")  to
acquire  an aggregate  of 1,425,689 shares  of Class A  Common Stock), 3,202,843
shares of Class B Common Stock, all of which may be converted into a like number
of shares of Class A Common Stock, and 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock,
which are convertible into Class A Common Stock as set forth in "Description  of
Capital Stock--Preferred Stock." In connection with the June 1994 reorganization
described  in "Reorganization," the Company  has registered under the Securities
Act 10,447,714 shares (including 2,000,000 shares owned by First Nationwide Bank
("First Nationwide") that  are being  offered hereby)  of Class  A Common  Stock
(including  all  outstanding shares  of Class  A  Common Stock  not sold  in the
Company's initial  public offering  (the  "IPO"), 4,804,258  shares of  Class  A
Common  Stock that have been or may be issued upon the conversion of the Class B
Common Stock and 99,149 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
the warrant described below),  and has agreed to  maintain the effectiveness  of
such  registration until October 1996. Such  registration allows all such shares
of Class A  Common Stock,  including shares  owned by  officers, directors,  and
affiliates  of the Company, to be  freely tradable. Shortly after the completion
of the  Company's  IPO, the  Company  registered  under the  Securities  Act  an
aggregate  of 1,850,000 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
options granted and to be granted  pursuant to the Company's Stock Option  Plan.
However, pursuant to agreements with the Underwriters, without the prior written
consent  of Bear,  Stearns &  Co. Inc. ("Bear  Stearns"), (i)  Darwin Deason has
agreed not to sell or  otherwise dispose of his shares  of Class A Common  Stock
issuable on conversion of his Class B Common Stock until September 22, 1996, and
(ii)  First Nationwide has agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of any of its
shares of Class A Common Stock that  are not offered hereby until September  22,
1996.  An aggregate of 1,041,808 outstanding shares  of Class A Common Stock and
3,202,843 shares of Class B Common Stock are subject to such agreements with the
Underwriters.
 
    See "Description of Capital Stock--Warrant" regarding an outstanding warrant
to purchase  396,594  shares  of  the  Company's Class  A  Common  Stock  at  an
increasing  exercise price that was $29.31 per  share as of April 1, 1996, which
became exercisable in  part beginning on  January 1, 1996.  In addition,  65,000
shares (including 27,500 shares that are being offered hereby) of Class A Common
Stock  were  issued  on  February  15, 1996  in  connection  with  the Company's
acquisition   of    a    70%   interest    in    The   Systems    Group,    Inc.
 
                                       7

("TSG").  The  shares issuable  on exercise  of the  warrant (other  than 99,149
shares of  Class A  Common Stock  issuable upon  exercise of  a portion  of  the
warrant,  which  have  been  registered  on  the  shelf  registration  statement
referenced above  filed  by the  Company)  will be,  and  the shares  issued  in
connection with the TSG acquisition that are not offered hereby are, "restricted
securities" within the meaning of the Securities Act.
 
    No  predictions can be made  as to the effect, if  any, that market sales of
such shares will have on the market price of the shares of Class A Common  Stock
prevailing  from time to time. However, sales  of substantial amounts of Class A
Common Stock in  the open market  or the  availability of such  shares for  sale
could  adversely affect the market price for the shares of Class A Common Stock.
See "Description of Capital Stock" and "Principal and Selling Stockholders."
 
    DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL.  The Company's success is largely dependent  on
the skills, experience and performance of certain key members of its management,
including Darwin Deason, the Company's Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive
Officer.  The loss of the  services of any of these  key employees could have an
adverse effect on  the Company's  business and  prospects. The  Company has  not
entered into employment agreements with any of its key employees.
 
    VOTING  CONTROL BY  CHAIRMAN OF  THE BOARD.   The  Company is  controlled by
Darwin Deason, who has voting control  over an aggregate of 3,202,843 shares  of
Class  B Common Stock, which have an aggregate of 32,028,430 votes, representing
approximately 69% of the total voting  power of the Company after giving  effect
to  this offering. Accordingly, Mr. Deason controls virtually all decisions made
with respect to the Company by its stockholders, including decisions relating to
the election  of directors  of the  Company.  Furthermore, as  a result  of  his
control  of the voting stock of the Company, Mr. Deason may, except as otherwise
provided by Delaware law or certain  provisions in the Company's Second  Amended
and  Restated Certificate of Incorporation  (the "Certificate of Incorporation")
and its Amended Bylaws (the "Bylaws") requiring an 80% stockholder vote, without
the  concurrence  of  the  remaining  stockholders,  amend  the  Certificate  of
Incorporation,  effect or  prevent a  merger, sale  of assets  or other business
acquisition or  disposition and  otherwise control  the outcome  of all  actions
requiring  stockholder approval.  See "Principal  and Selling  Stockholders" and
"Description of Capital Stock--Class A and Class B Common Stock."
 
    POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE.  Prices for the Class A Common Stock are
determined in the market place and may be influenced by many factors,  including
the  depth and liquidity  of the market  for the Class  A Common Stock, investor
perception  of  the  Company,  and  general  economic  and  market   conditions.
Variations  in the Company's  operating results, general  trends in the industry
and other factors could cause  the market price of the  Class A Common Stock  to
fluctuate  significantly. In  addition, general  trends and  developments in the
industry, including the announcement of technological innovations by the Company
or its  competitors,  government regulation  and  other factors,  could  have  a
significant  impact on the price  of the Class A  Common Stock. The stock market
has, on  occasion, experienced  price and  volume fluctuations  that have  often
particularly  affected market prices  for smaller companies  and that often have
been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the  affected
companies,  and the price of the Class A  Common Stock could be affected by such
fluctuations.
 
    ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECT OF  CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION  AND BYLAWS.   Certain
provisions  of  the Company's  Certificate  of Incorporation  and  the Company's
Bylaws may delay, defer  or prevent a  tender offer or  takeover attempt that  a
stockholder  might consider to be in such stockholder's best interest, including
attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the stock held
by stockholders. The Bylaws also provide  that the number of directors shall  be
fixed, from time to time, by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company
(the  "Board of Directors").  Further, the Certificate  of Incorporation permits
the Board  of  Directors  to establish  by  resolution  one or  more  series  of
preferred   stock  (the  "Preferred   Stock")  and  to   establish  the  powers,
designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special
rights of each series of Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock could be issued on
terms that are unfavorable to the holders of Class A Common Stock or that  could
make a takeover or change in control of the Company more difficult. In addition,
the  Company is subject to  Section 203 of the  Delaware General Corporation Law
(the "DGCL"), which  places restrictions on  certain business combinations  with
certain stockholders that could render more difficult a change in control of the
Company.

    INDEMNIFICATION OF STOCKHOLDERS FOR SPIN-OFF.  On June 30, 1994, the Company
distributed  all of the shares of  capital stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Precept Business  Products,  Inc.,  a  Texas  corporation  ("Precept"),  to  the
Company's stockholders, including Mr. Deason, the Company's largest stockholder.
See  "Principal  and  Selling  Stockholders." In  connection  with  the Spin-Off
described in "Reorganization," the Company has agreed to indemnify the Company's
stockholders, on  a  net  after-tax  basis,  for  any  actual  taxes  (including
penalties,  interest  and legal  fees),  net of  the  actual or  assumed benefit
resulting from increased tax basis, that  may be asserted against the  Company's
stockholders  on the basis that the Spin-Off  fails to qualify under Section 355
of the Internal  Revenue Code of  1986, as amended  (the "Code"). The  Company's
aggregate  indemnification liability  is limited to  $5 million,  reduced by the
Company's expenses incurred in  connection with determining qualification  under
Section  355. Although prior to the Spin-Off  the Company received an opinion of
counsel to the effect that it is  more likely than not that the Spin-Off  should
qualify  for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code subject to certain
restrictions, such  opinion has  no  binding effect  upon the  Internal  Revenue
Service  (the "IRS") or the courts and there can be no assurance that the IRS or
a court will agree with the opinion. See "Reorganization--Spin-Off of Precept."

                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
    The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of 2,000,000 shares of Class A
Common Stock  offered  by the  Company  in  this offering,  after  deduction  of
underwriting  discounts and commissions  and expenses payable  by the Company in
connection  therewith,  are   estimated  to  be   approximately  $96.3   million
(approximately  $125.5  million  if  the over-allotment  option  granted  by the
Company to the  Underwriters is exercised  in full) assuming  a public  offering
price of $50.50 per share. The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from
the  sale  of  the  Class  A  Common  Stock  by  the  Selling  Stockholders. See
"Underwriting."
 
    The Company will use all  of the net proceeds to  it from this offering  for
the  repayment of a  portion of the bank  debt ($0.0 million  at March 31, 1996,
plus approximately $137.5  to be  incurred in connection  with the  Acquisition)
under  its revolving  credit agreement,  as it  is proposed  to be  amended (the
"Amended Credit Agreement"), with Wells Fargo Bank (Texas), N.A. ("Wells Fargo")
and Bank One, Texas, N.A. The debt under this agreement will mature on June  30,
1999,  unless  converted at  that time  to a  two  year term  loan due  in eight
quarterly installments, and will bear interest at a rate equal to the  Company's
election  of either a floating  rate equal to the  London Interbank Offered Rate
(LIBOR) plus  0.5% to  1.375%  or Wells  Fargo's  base rate.  See  "Management's
Discussion  and  Analysis of  Financial  Condition and  Results  of Operations--

    On June 7,  1996, the  last reported  sale price  of the  Company's Class  A
Common  Stock on  the Nasdaq National  Market was  $50.50 per share.  On June 7,
1996, the Company had approximately 49  stockholders of record of the  Company's
Class A Common Stock.
 
    To  date, the Company has  not paid any cash  dividends on its common stock.
The Company intends to continue to retain  earnings for use in the operation  of
its  business and, therefore,  does not anticipate paying  any cash dividends in
the foreseeable future.  Under the terms  of the Amended  Credit Agreement,  the
Company will be permitted to pay dividends in any fiscal year to the extent that
total  dividends in  such fiscal  year do  not exceed  50% of  the Company's net
income for the  preceding fiscal year.  Also, under the  terms of the  Company's
outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, the Company must pay all accrued dividends
on  outstanding  Series A  Preferred  Stock prior  to  making any  cash dividend
payments on  the  Company's  common  stock.  Any  future  determination  to  pay
dividends will be at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors and will
be  dependent  upon the  Company's financial  condition, results  of operations,
contractual restrictions,  capital  requirements, business  prospects  and  such
other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant.

                                THE ACQUISITION
 
    On May 31, 1996, the Company  entered into an agreement with MCN  Investment
to  acquire  100%  of the  stock  of Genix,  a  wholly owned  subsidiary  of MCN
Investment, for  approximately $137.5  million in  cash. Genix  is a  nationwide
provider  of data  processing outsourcing services.  The Company  will close the
Acquisition prior to the consummation of this offering.
 
    The Acquisition continues  the Company's strategy  of acquiring  information
processing  companies to grow  its customer base,  enhance its service offerings
and expand its geographic  presence. The Acquisition  provides the Company  with
three  additional data centers, which will  strengthen the Company's presence in
the Midwest, Northeast and Southeast, and adds customers in its core outsourcing
business in new industries, including  the insurance and utility industries,  as
well  as  in other  industries, particularly  manufacturing, that  ACS currently
services.
 
    Genix is the result  of the combination of  MCN Computer Services, Inc.  and
Genix  Corporation in  1990. MCN  Computer Services, Inc.  began in  1982 as the
internal data center for Michigan Consolidated Gas Company, a subsidiary of  MCN
Corporation,  before expanding its  services to outside  customers. In 1989, the
business had achieved  revenues of $23  million and included  a wide variety  of
customers  from  the  utility,  financial  services,  manufacturing  and  public
sectors. Genix Corporation  was similarly formed  in 1984 as  the internal  data
center  for National Steel  in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  Genix Corporation also
expanded its services to outside customers and in 1989 had achieved revenues  of
$27 million.
 
    Genix is headquartered in Dearborn, Michigan, with data centers in Dearborn,
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Charlotte, North Carolina. Genix's primary focus is
providing  a diverse set  of data processing  outsourcing solutions to companies
that desire reductions in data processing costs and improvements in the  quality
of  data processing and that seek  assistance in achieving strategic information
processing solutions. Genix's principal outsourcing  service is the delivery  of
data  processing services on a remote basis  from host data centers. The mission
critical application systems processed by Genix for its customers include claims
management, manufacturing,  retail  and  wholesale  distribution  and  financial
systems.  Genix also seeks to capitalize on the growing demand for client-server
computing by offering network and desktop management and support of  distributed
platform  environments.  Genix utilizes  a  variety of  third-party  software in
conjunction  with  appropriate  hardware  platforms  to  provide  flexible   and
cost-effective solutions for customers. In addition to data processing services,
Genix  provides network  management services,  electronic printing,  mailing and
fulfillment services,  application  management  services  and  business  process
solutions.  Genix has approximately  470 employees and  its executive management
team averages twenty years of experience in the information processing industry.
 
    Genix's revenues have grown from $62.4  million for the year ended  December
31, 1991 to $105.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1995. As of March 31,
1996,  Genix  had  approximately  100  customers.  Genix  typically  serves  its
customers under long-term contracts, with  contract terms ranging from three  to
seven  years. Several  of Genix's  customers are  serviced under  contracts that
allow for  early  termination. See  "Risk  Factors --  Reliance  on  Significant
Customers."
 
    Genix  operates full service data centers  for the support of its customers'
computing requirements.  The  data centers  are  designed to  provide  redundant
electrical  power, cooling and telecommunication capabilities that significantly
reduce the risk  of service disruption.  The Dearborn, Michigan  data center  is
owned  by  Genix. This  facility has  approximately 69,000  square feet  with an
additional four acres of undeveloped  adjacent real estate. The Pittsburgh  data
center  includes approximately 90,000 square feet of leased space under a twenty
year  lease  expiring  in  the  year   2009.  The  Charlotte  data  center   has
approximately  48,000 square feet and was leased  in 1994 upon the signing of an
outsourcing agreement with a major  customer. The lease expires concurrent  with
the customer contract in 2001.
 
    Genix  leases 15 IBM mainframes and  eight Digital Equipment Corporation and
six Hewlett Packard mid-range computers. The  initial terms of the leases  range
from   36  to  60  months.  Genix  believes  that  the  computer  equipment,  as
periodically expanded and upgraded, is adequate for its present business  needs.
Genix's  data centers  have a  combined processing  capacity of  over 2,500 MIPS
(million of  instructions  per second).  In  addition, Genix's  Pittsburgh  data
center  has sufficient unused  infrastructure capacity to  enable ACS to curtail
the planned expansion of its existing Dallas facilities.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
    The  following presentation of  management's discussion and  analysis of the
Company's financial  condition  and results  of  operations should  be  read  in
conjunction  with the Company's  Consolidated Financial Statements, accompanying
Notes thereto  and  other  financial information  appearing  elsewhere  in  this
Prospectus.  All references in the following presentation to revenues, operating
income and income before  income taxes refer to  revenues, operating income  and
income before income taxes from continuing operations, respectively.
 
OVERVIEW
 
    The  Company  derives  its revenues  from  providing  information technology
services and EFT transaction processing to commercial and financial  institution
customers.  A  substantial portion  of the  Company's  revenues is  derived from
recurring monthly charges to its customers under service contracts that vary  in
terms  from  one  to  ten years.  For  the  nine months  ended  March  31, 1996,
approximately 91% of the Company's  revenues were recurring. Recurring  revenues
are  defined by the Company  as revenues derived from  services that are used by
the Company's customers each year  in connection with their ongoing  businesses,
and accordingly exclude conversion and deconversion fees, software license fees,
product  installation fees and hardware sales.  Since inception, the Company has
acquired 26  companies  (excluding  the Acquisition),  which  have  resulted  in
geographic expansion, growth and diversification of the Company's customer base,
expansion  of services offered  and increased economies  of scale. Approximately
58% of the increase in revenues for the five years ended June 30, 1995 has  been
attributable to acquisitions.
 
    In January 1994, the Company's then largest customer, B of A Texas, informed
the  Company  of  its  intention  to consolidate  its  data  processing  and EFT
transaction processing with its  parent's systems, and  therefore not renew  its
contract  with the Company, which  was due to expire on  August 31, 1995. Due to
the magnitude of the  B of A Texas  revenues, comprising approximately 15%,  14%
and  11% of the Company's 1993, 1994 and 1995 revenues, respectively, management
of the Company  developed and successfully  executed a plan  to eliminate  costs
directly  related  to  the services  provided  under  the contract,  as  well as
additional indirect infrastructure  costs, including  customer support,  general
overhead and other indirect expenses.
 
    In  conjunction with the contract expiration,  the Company expected to incur
various non-recurring  expenses primarily  associated  with the  termination  or
renegotiation  of a computer lease. Such costs were estimated to aggregate $16.1
million, of which $13.3 million had been  accrued through June 30, 1995. Due  to
the  signing  of a  services contract  with  another customer  in May  1995, the
Company determined that the  computer lease would not  need to be terminated  or
renegotiated,  as the  new customer  would replace  computer capacity previously
utilized for the B of A Texas contract. Accordingly, the Company determined that
continuing the accrual for the computer  lease was no longer necessary, and,  in
September  1995, began to  amortize the accrual  over the remaining  term of the
computer lease, which  expires February 1999,  at a rate  of approximately  $1.0
million  per quarter.  The expiration of  the B  of A Texas  contract is further
discussed in  Note  2 of  the  Notes  to the  Company's  Consolidated  Financial
Statements.

COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995
 
    Revenues increased $56.1  million, or  25%, to  $279.7 million  in the  nine
months ended March 31, 1996 from $223.6 million for the same period of the prior
year.  This increase was due to  the completion of seven acquisitions subsequent
to March 31,  1995 and internally  generated sales from  both new customers  and
growth  from existing customers, partially offset  by the reductions in revenues
from the B of A  Texas contract. Revenues related to  the B of A Texas  contract
decreased to $4.6 million from $27.6 million for the nine months ended March 31,
1996  and 1995, respectively. Excluding revenues from the B of A Texas contract,
the increase in revenues was 40% for  the nine months ended March 31, 1996.  The
seven  entities acquired  subsequent to March  31, 1995  contributed revenues of
$33.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 1996.
 
    Total operating expenses were $251.4 million in the nine months ended  March
31, 1996, an increase of 25% from $201.2 million for the prior period. Operating
expenses  as a percentage  of revenues remained virtually  unchanged in the nine
months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 1995  at
approximately 90%. Wages and benefits increased as a percentage of revenues from
34.2% to 39.6% due to the acquisitions consummated in the Company's professional
services  and image management  lines of business,  which are significantly more
labor intensive  than  the Company's  other  lines of  business.  Without  these
acquisitions,  wages and benefits as a percentage of revenues for the first nine
months of fiscal 1996  would have remained approximately  the same as the  first
nine  months of fiscal 1995.  Rent, lease and maintenance  decreased to 19.8% of
revenues in the first nine months of fiscal 1996, compared to 26.4% of  revenues
in the first nine months of fiscal 1995. This decrease is attributable primarily
to  the acquisitions  in fiscal 1996  of several labor  intensive businesses and
economies of scale. In addition, the  first nine months of fiscal 1996  included
$2.2  million  of amortization  of the  B of  A Texas  accrual compared  to $7.2
million accrued in  the first  nine months  of fiscal 1995.  See Note  2 to  the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
    Operating  income increased $5.9  million, or 26%, to  $28.3 million for the
first nine months of fiscal 1996, compared  to $22.4 million for the first  nine
months  of fiscal 1995. The increase was due to internal growth and acquisitions
since the third quarter of fiscal 1995.
 
                                       15
<PAGE>
    Interest and other  expenses declined from  $1.2 million in  the first  nine
months  of fiscal 1995 to $0.6 million in fiscal 1996. The decrease is primarily
attributable to  decreased interest  expense due  to the  reduction in  debt  in
October 1994 upon receipt of proceeds from the IPO.
 
    The Company's effective tax rate of approximately 40.5% exceeded the federal
statutory   rate  of  35%,   due  primarily  to   the  amortization  of  certain
acquisition-related costs that are non-deductible for tax purposes, plus the net
effect of state income taxes.
 
COMPARISON OF FISCAL 1995 TO FISCAL 1994
 
    Revenues increased $42.1  million, or  15.5%, to $313.2  million for  fiscal
1995,  compared to $271.1  million for fiscal 1994,  due primarily to internally
generated sales growth (almost two-thirds  of the increase), with the  remainder
(approximately  $15.6 million)  generated from  acquisitions. Excluding revenues
from B of A Texas, fiscal 1995 revenues increased almost 19% over fiscal 1994.
 
    Outsourcing services revenues increased 14.4%, to $174.1 million, due to  an
increase  in  accounts  processed  and  higher  volumes  processed  for existing
significant commercial  outsourcing  customers.  Revenues earned  from  the  EFT
transaction  processing  business  increased  by  15.1%  to  $64.4  million, due
primarily to an increase in the  number of ATMs processed, particularly from  an
increase  in low-cost  ATM devices.  Revenues earned  from the  image management
services business increased  4.8% to  $65.9 million  due to  the acquisition  of
Microfilm  Services Company, Inc. in January  1995. Professional services, a new
line of business for  the Company created with  the January 1995 acquisition  of
TSG, contributed $8.7 million to revenues.
 
    Total  operating expenses were $281.6 million in fiscal 1995, an increase of
14.4% over fiscal 1994.  Consistent with the increase  in revenues, the  overall
increase  in operating expenses  is due to  increases associated with internally
generated sales growth and,  to a lesser  extent, acquisitions. Total  operating
expenses improved as a percentage of revenues to 89.9% in fiscal 1995 from 90.8%
in  fiscal 1994, due  primarily to increased economies  of scale from internally
generated sales growth and the effects of the B of A Texas cost savings plans.
 
    Wages and benefits  as a percentage  of revenue increased  by slightly  more
than  one-half percentage point due to the acquisition of TSG. As a professional
services business, TSG  is labor  intensive. Excluding the  acquisition of  TSG,
wages  and benefits would  have declined by  approximately one percentage point.
The net  decrease in  services  and supplies  and  rent, lease  and  maintenance
(approximately  two percentage points)  was due primarily  to economies of scale
resulting from the Company's revenue growth,  offset slightly by an increase  in
the  amount of expenses accrued for the B of A Texas contract. Fiscal 1995 rent,
lease and  maintenance  expense included  $8.5  million for  the  B of  A  Texas
contract  termination compared to $4.8 million for fiscal 1994. Depreciation and
amortization increased as  a percentage  of revenues by  slightly over  one-half
percentage  point due to the write-off of $1.1 million of purchased research and
development costs associated  with two  fiscal 1995  acquisitions and  increased
acquisition amortization.
 
    Operating  income increased $6.7 million, or  27.1%, in fiscal 1995 compared
to fiscal 1994. As a percentage  of revenues, operating income increased by  one
percentage point. This increase was due to economies of scale and implementation
of the B of A Texas cost savings plan, offset by an increase in the B of A Texas
accrual  in fiscal 1995 versus fiscal 1994. The economies of scale resulted from
increased outsourcing and EFT processing revenues, which were not accompanied by
proportionate increases in  headcount or  equipment costs due  to the  Company's
existing infrastructure and available capacity.
 
    Interest  and other net expenses decreased by more than one percentage point
due to decreases in interest costs resulting from the payment of debt, primarily
from proceeds from the IPO, and because fiscal 1994 included charges  associated
with  the divestiture  of the  Company's Hawaii  outsourcing operations  of $0.9
million.
 
    The effective tax rate  for fiscal 1995 and  1994 was approximately 41%  and
exceeded   the   statutory   rate   of  35%   due   to   certain  non-deductible
acquisition-related costs and the net effect of state income taxes.

COMPARISON OF FISCAL 1994 TO FISCAL 1993
 
    Revenues increased $82.0 million, or 43.4%, to $271.1 million in fiscal 1994
from $189.1 million in fiscal 1993, primarily due to three acquisitions and,  to
a lesser extent, internal growth.
 
    Revenues from the Company's outsourcing services business increased 28.4% to
$152.2  million due to the acquisition in  June 1993 of a healthcare outsourcing
company, which generated revenues  of $19.2 million during  fiscal 1994, a  $5.1
million  increase in revenues  from B of  A Texas resulting  from an increase in
accounts  processed  and  higher  volumes  processed  for  existing  significant
commercial  outsourcing customers. Revenues from  the EFT transaction processing
business increased 28.3% to  $56.0 million due primarily  to an increase in  the
number  of ATMs processed, including $3.8 million  attributable to B of A Texas,
as well  as  an  increase  in  transaction  pricing.  Revenues  from  the  image
management services business increased 133.6% to $62.9 million, due primarily to
the full year effect of companies acquired in fiscal 1993. In December 1992, the
Company increased its ownership interest in Dataplex Acquisition Corp. to 96.5%,
which resulted in Dataplex Acquisition Corp. becoming a consolidated subsidiary.
The  Company also acquired an additional  image management company in June 1993.
Revenues from  the two  acquired companies  were $62.9  million in  fiscal  1994
compared to $26.9 million in the prior period.
 
    Total  operating expenses were $246.2 million in fiscal 1994, an increase of
43.4% from  $171.7 million  in  fiscal 1993.  Approximately two-thirds  of  this
increase  was attributable  to acquisitions.  Total operating  expenses remained
constant as a percentage  of revenues at  90.8% of revenues  in fiscal 1994  and
fiscal  1993. Services  and supplies  increased as  a percentage  of revenues to
27.6% in fiscal  1994 from 25.9%  in fiscal 1993  due to the  acquisition of  an
image   management  business,  Dataplex   Corporation  ("Dataplex").  The  image
management  business  uses  a  relatively  high  amount  of  supplies  such   as
microfiche,  microfilm,  and other  storage media.  Rent, lease  and maintenance
remained essentially flat  as a percentage  of revenues despite  a $4.8  million
accrual  established in fiscal 1994 for the  B of A Texas lease termination. The
$4.8 million accrual was largely offset by decreased rent, lease and maintenance
costs resulting  from increased  economies of  scale. Other  operating  expenses
decreased as a percentage of revenues to 2.1% in fiscal 1994 from 3.7% in fiscal
1993,  primarily due to  a $2.8 million charge  in fiscal 1993  related to a CPU
upgrade and lease termination.
 
    Operating income  increased $7.4  million,  or 42.8%,  to $24.8  million  in
fiscal 1994, compared to $17.4 million in fiscal 1993. Operating income remained
constant as a percentage of revenues at 9.2% in fiscal 1994 and fiscal 1993.
 
    Interest  and other expense increased $3.0  million to $4.6 million, or 1.7%
of revenues in  fiscal 1994, from  $1.6 million  or 0.9% of  revenues in  fiscal
1993.  The  increase  resulted  from increased  debt  incurred  for acquisitions
completed in fiscal 1993, an increase in ATM cash borrowings to fund cash in new
Company owned ATMs and a $0.9 million  charge related to the divestiture of  the
Company's Hawaii outsourcing business.
 
    The  Company's effective tax rate of 41%  exceeded the statutory rate of 35%
due primarily to the amortization of certain acquisition-related costs that were
non-deductible for tax purposes, plus the net effect of state income taxes.
 
QUARTERLY COMPARISONS
 
    The following table sets forth certain quarterly unaudited financial data in
dollar amounts and  as a  percentage of  revenues for  each of  the quarters  in
fiscal  1995 and the  first three quarters  in fiscal 1996.  The decrease in the
earnings per  share  in  the  quarter  ended  December  31,  1995  is  primarily
attributable  to the expiration of the B  of A Texas contract. See "--Comparison
of the Nine Months Ended March 31, 1996 and

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
    At March 31, 1996, the Company's liquid assets, consisting of cash and  cash
equivalents,  totaled $44.3 million compared to  $49.7 million at June 30, 1995.
These liquid  assets included  $9.0  million ($8.3  million  at June  30,  1995)
borrowed  under a revolving credit facility (the "ATM Cash Facility") for use in
the Company's  automated teller  machines ("ATMs").  Working capital  was  $44.7
million  at  March 31,  1996 and  reflected  the net  proceeds of  $68.3 million
received from the Company's secondary offering of 1.8 million shares of Class  A
Common  Stock completed in  March 1996, less  $43.1 million of  the net proceeds
used for the repayment of debt. Working  capital at March 31, 1996 decreased  by
$6.9  million from the June 30, 1995 total of $51.6 million primarily due to the
reclassification of the $9.0  million ATM Cash Facility  to a current  liability
during this quarter as a result of the refinancing discussed below.
 
    Net  cash provided by  operating activities was $11.0  million for the first
nine months of fiscal  1996, compared with $18.9  million provided by  operating
activities  in fiscal 1995. The decrease is  primarily due to the elimination of
the prepayment  of services  from B  of A  Texas, which  was approximately  $2.2
million  at June 30, 1995, in connection with the expiration of the B of A Texas
contract, and a decrease of $5.6 million  in the periods related to the  changes
in  ATM cash balances. Net cash used for investing activities increased by $55.2
million over the  prior nine  month period.  The current  period included  $22.4
million  for six  acquisitions, compared  to five  smaller acquisitions  of $7.8
million in fiscal 1995, and  an increase of $27.3 million  in cash used for  the
purchase  of property, equipment and  software. Property and equipment purchases
increased with the purchase of the  Company's headquarters and the purchase  and
renovation  of an adjacent building, growth associated with outsourcing services
customers and  an increase  in the  number of  ATMs owned  and operated  by  the
Company.  Net cash provided by financing  activities increased $48.3 million due
primarily to  proceeds  received from  the  Company's secondary  stock  offering
completed in March 1996.
 
    In  December  1995,  the Company  refinanced  its revolving  line  of credit
facility (the  "Credit  Facility") and  ATM  Cash Facility.  The  new  borrowing
arrangements  provide up to $90 million of  funds under the three year unsecured
Credit Facility and $11 million under the one year ATM Cash Facility. At the end
of the three  year Credit Facility,  the Company  has an option  to convert  any
principal   outstanding  to  a  two  year  term  loan  due  in  eight  quarterly
installments. In connection with the secondary stock offering completed in March
1996, the Company paid down its  balance outstanding under the Credit  Facility,
leaving  approximately $79 million available for use, net of outstanding letters
of credit. Borrowings of $9.0 million  were outstanding at March 31, 1996  under
the  ATM  Cash Facility.  In August  1995,  the Company  amended its  vault cash
custody agreement with First Interstate Bank  Texas, N.A. (now Wells Fargo  Bank
(Texas),  N.A.), which replaced a similar  facility that expired August 31, 1995
provided under the B of A Texas contract. This amendment increased the amount of
funds available to $50 million and extended the term to July 1997. The amount of
cash outstanding under this facility was approximately $35.4 million as of March
31, 1996. This  cash is  neither an  asset nor a  liability of  the Company  and
therefore is not recorded on the accompanying balance sheets.
 
                                       18
<PAGE>
    The  Company has executed a commitment letter with Wells Fargo and Bank One,
Texas, N.A.  to  amend  its  credit  agreement  prior  to  consummation  of  the
Acquisition  to increase the amount available  under the Credit Facility to $160
million. The  Amended Credit  Agreement will  provide for  a mandatory  facility
reduction  on a  quarterly basis  beginning in  June 1997  that will  reduce the
outstanding principal balance of the Credit Facility to $90 million by June  30,
1999. In addition, the Company will covenant to apply all of the net proceeds to
it  from this offering to repay the  outstanding principal balance of the Credit
Facility, which will permanently reduce the commitment under the Credit Facility
to $125 million.
 
    In connection with the Acquisition, the Company will have a liability of  up
to an additional $32.1 million related to the present value of a long-term fixed
obligation  between Genix and a  software vendor that was  entered into in March
1995. As the obligation relates to duplicate services for which the Company  has
already  contracted, it is considered to  be an unfavorable commitment. Payments
related to this  obligation are payable  over the remaining  eight years of  the
contract.
 
    The  Company's management believes that available cash and cash equivalents,
together with cash generated from operations and available borrowings under  its
credit  facilities, will  provide adequate  funds for  the Company's anticipated
needs, including working capital,  the capital expenditures  and ATM vault  cash
requirements.  Management also believes that  cash provided from operations will
be sufficient to  satisfy all existing  debt obligations as  they come due.  The
Company  intends to  continue its growth  through acquisitions and  from time to
time to engage in discussions with potential acquisition candidates. As the size
and financial resources of the Company increase, however, additional acquisition
opportunities requiring significant commitments of  capital may arise. In  order
to  pursue such opportunities, the  Company may be required  to incur debt or to
issue additional potentially dilutive securities in the future. No assurance can
be given as to the Company's future acquisition and expansion opportunities  and
how such opportunities would be financed.

                                    BUSINESS
 
    ACS  is a  nationwide provider  of information  technology services  and EFT
transaction processing. The  Company's information  technology services  include
data  processing outsourcing,  image management  and professional  services. The
Company   provides    its   services    to   customers    with    time-critical,
transaction-intensive   information   processing  needs.   ACS'   revenues  from
continuing operations increased  from $146.8  million in fiscal  1991 to  $313.2
million  in fiscal  1995, and income  from continuing  operations increased from
$3.1 million to $17.6 million during the same period.
 
    The Company's data processing outsourcing services are provided to a variety
of   customers   nationwide,   including   retailers,   healthcare    providers,
telecommunications   companies,   wholesale  distributors,   manufacturers,  and
regional, non-money  center  financial  institutions.  The  Company  utilizes  a
variety  of proprietary and third party industry-standard software packages that
can be matched with  the appropriate hardware platform  to provide flexible  and
cost-effective  solutions to customer  requirements. ACS is  capitalizing on the
trend toward client-server  computing by providing  consulting and  transitional
outsourcing  services,  including network  and  desktop computer  management, to
companies that  are changing  to these  distributed platform  environments.  The
Company  offers image management  services such as  electronic imaging, document
imaging,  record  storage  and  retrieval  services,  micrographics   processing
services  and high speed  data capture services. Beginning  in January 1995, ACS
expanded  its  product  offerings  to  include  professional  services  such  as
consulting,  contract  programming and  technical  support, as  well  as network
design  and  systems  integration.  The  Company's  EFT  transaction  processing
business  consists  primarily  of the  operation  of a  proprietary  ATM network
consisting of  Company  owned ATMs  as  well as  ATMs  owned by  third  parties.
According  to industry data as of September 1995, based on the number of network
ATMs, the Company's MoneyMaker-SM- ATM network is one of the largest proprietary
off-premise ATM networks in the United  States. The Company operates a  national
network  of host and remote data centers that enable ACS to process transactions
for its outsourcing and EFT customers in a rapid, cost-effective manner.
 
    ACS was formed in 1988 to participate in the trend to outsource  information
processing  to third parties  to enable businesses to  focus on core operations,
respond to rapidly  changing technologies and  reduce data processing  expenses.
The  Company's business  strategy is  to continue  to lower  its unit processing
costs by expanding  its customer base  through both internal  marketing and  the
acquisition  of  complementary  companies.  Since  inception,  the  Company  has
completed 26 acquisitions  (excluding the Acquisition),  which have resulted  in
geographic expansion, growth and diversification of the Company's customer base,
expansion  of services and  products offered, and  increased economies of scale.
Approximately 58% of the increase in  the Company's revenues for the five  years
ended  June  30,  1995  has been  attributable  to  acquisitions.  The Company's
marketing efforts  focus on  developing long-term  relationships with  customers
that choose to outsource various information processing requirements, as well as
on   expanding  services  offered   to  existing  customers.   The  Company  had
approximately 13,400 information  technology customers  and approximately  3,460
EFT customers as of March 31, 1996.
 
MARKET OVERVIEW
 
    The  Company believes that the demand for third-party information processing
services has grown substantially in recent  years and will continue to  increase
in  the future  as a result  of financial, strategic  and technological factors.
These factors include:  (i) the desire  by businesses to  take advantage of  the
latest  advances in technology without the  cost and time commitment required to
maintain  an  in-house  system,  (ii)  the  increasing  requirements  for  rapid
processing  and communication  of large amounts  of data  to multiple locations,
(iii) the increasing attention  by businesses to cost  control, causing them  to
compare  the  fully  allocated cost  of  in-house  processing with  the  cost of
outsourcing and  (iv) the  desire of  organizations to  focus on  their  primary
competencies.  According to a published market  research report, the size of the
U.S. information systems outsourcing market is estimated to be approximately $22
billion in 1996.
 
    According to an industry trade association, the market for image  management
products and services is estimated to be approximately $6.2 billion in 1996. The
Company  participates in all segments of this market, primarily as a provider of
micrographics products and  services, and  as a provider  of electronic  imaging
products and services.
 
                                       20
<PAGE>
    As  a result  of rapid  technological change  in the  Company's markets, the
Company expects continued strong demand for third-party professional programming
and consulting services. Because ACS provides professional services to customers
with mainframe  environments as  well as  with newer  client-server and  network
applications,  the Company  believes that  it is  well-positioned to  expand its
services in current locations as well as in new markets.
 
    EFT transaction processing involves  the on-line processing of  transactions
initiated by a consumer at a terminal using a debit or credit card issued by the
consumer's   financial   institution.  Various   transactions,   including  cash
withdrawals, transfers and balance inquiries, are authorized and performed  with
immediate posting to the consumer's accounts. Usage of ATMs located at financial
institutions  and retail stores has increased  during recent years. According to
an industry publication,  there were over  122,000 ATMs deployed  in the  United
States as of September 1995. Transaction volume has grown in recent years due to
an  increase in the number  of ATMs deployed, the  number of cardholders and the
frequency of use by cardholders.
 
    Information processing  has  experienced  dramatic  changes  over  the  past
several  years. These  changes are the  result of both  technological changes as
well as business process changes, such as the reengineering of core  processing.
The continuing reduction of market influence by historically dominant technology
vendors  has  led to  rapidly advancing  and  changing technology,  resulting in
issues of compatibility, scalability and increased complexity. The shift  toward
the  client-server  environment  has  created the  need  for  more user-friendly
applications, complex on-line support mechanisms  and the integration of  highly
complex  systems/ applications development  projects. The technology surrounding
the storage and retrieval of  massive amounts of data  on media such as  optical
disk,  microfilm and paper  has further increased  the complexity of information
processing. As a result, customers are demanding that computer services  vendors
provide   complete  information  technology   solutions.  Image  management  and
professional services have thus become  a logical extension of traditional  data
processing  outsourcing services.  The Company  began offering  image management
services on  a  large scale  beginning  in 1992  and  has further  enhanced  its
professional   service  offerings,   which  now   include  consulting,  contract
programming and network design and systems integration.
 
    The Company's revenues derived from information technology services and  EFT
transaction  processing for  the periods  indicated are  shown in  the following

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SERVICES
 
OUTSOURCING SERVICES
 
    The  Company offers  a diverse  set of  outsourcing solutions  to commercial
businesses desiring to achieve reductions in data processing costs, improvements
in the quality of  data processing or both.  The Company's principal  commercial
outsourcing  service is  the delivery  of data  processing services  on a remote
basis from host data centers with sufficient computer processing (mainframe  and
other)  capacity to deliver significant cost savings to customers. The principal
services provided include both on-line and batch processing of data and  network
management assistance. The mission critical application systems processed by the
Company  for  its  customers  include  financial,  human  resources,  retail and
wholesale  inventory   distribution,   manufacturing,   healthcare   management,
transportation   management,  commercial  and   residential  telephone  billing,
mortgage portfolio information and  software development systems. See  "--Sales,
Marketing  and Customer  Support." In  recent years  new client-server platforms
have been developed that may, for some applications, provide more flexibility to
customers than is available from mainframe  processing. To the extent these  new
platforms  are less  costly than mainframe  processing, customers  may choose to
move  portions  of   their  processing  requirements   to  their  own   in-house
client-server  systems.  However,  the  Company  believes  mainframe  processing
services will  continue to  be important  for many  applications, and  that  new
opportunities will be presented for outsourcing both client-server and mainframe
platforms  for complementary use. For example, in June 1995, the Company entered
into an alliance  with SAP  America, Inc.  ("SAP") to  jointly pursue  marketing
opportunities to implement and outsource SAP's R/3 client-server software, which
is  used to manage  complex financial, manufacturing,  sales and human resources
requirements. Under this alliance, it  is contemplated that ACS would  outsource
customers'  existing  legacy  systems  and  client-server  environments  and ACS
expects  to   commit  financial   resources  to   customers  for   license   and
implementation  costs related  to SAP  software. The  Company currently provides
outsourcing services on a variety of client-server platforms.
 
    The Company's target market for commercial data processing services consists
of   medium-to-large-sized   commercial    organizations   with    time-critical
transaction-intensive   information  processing  needs.   The  Company  provided
commercial data processing services to  approximately 220 customers as of  March
31, 1996, including retailers, wholesale distributors, healthcare providers, and
telecommunications,  transportation and other  commercial companies. The primary
geographic market for the Company's  commercial data processing services is  the
United  States, although the Company  evaluates international opportunities from
time to time. Because  of the high-speed and  high-capacity capabilities of  the
telecommunications   networks  available  to  the  Company,  host  data  centers
currently located in Dallas, Texas and Santa Clara, California are able to serve
customers throughout the United States.
 
                                       22
<PAGE>
    The  Company  typically  outsources a  customer's  in-house  data processing
operation by migrating  the processing  workload to  one of  the Company's  data
centers  over a period of three to six months, and in some instances the Company
acquires the  customer's  data  processing assets  and  hires  certain  customer
personnel. In a facilities management arrangement, which is less common, Company
personnel  manage and operate a data center on the customer's site. The customer
may, in  some  instances, maintain  and  enhance its  application  programs  and
schedule  and initiate processing, using computer and network resources provided
by  the  Company.  In  other  instances,  the  Company  maintains  and  enhances
application  programs  for the  customer. The  Company owns  certain proprietary
applications software that the  Company uses to  provide services to  commercial
customers,   including  telecommunications   service  providers   and  wholesale
distribution customers.  The software  is  not licensed  to customers  or  third
parties. The Company also licenses software provided by various software vendors
under  perpetual or renewable term licenses. The  Company does not believe it is
significantly dependent  upon  any  proprietary software  with  respect  to  its
commercial  outsourcing services and  believes that, as  to software licensed to
the Company, sufficient  alternative software products  are generally  available
for  licensing  by the  Company. However,  there  can be  no assurance  that the
Company will be able  to obtain such alternative  software products on a  timely
basis  or  without  incurring  additional  expense.  The  Company's  data center
hardware and systems software  platforms are also  made available to  customers,
such  as  software development  companies, which  desire to  purchase processing
resources on an as-required basis. The Company processes its commercial services
customers on a variety of hardware platforms.
 
    The Company's commercial data processing services are typically priced on  a
resource  utilization basis rather than on the basis of accounts or transactions
processed. Resources  utilized include  processing time,  professional  services
utilization,  hardware utilization, data storage and retrieval requirements, and
output volume required for processing.
 
    The Company also offers outsourcing  services to commercial banks,  thrifts,
and  credit  unions.  The  Company  satisfies  its  customer's  core  processing
requirements (deposits, installment,  commercial and  mortgage loans,  financial
accounting  and  reporting,  and central  information  file  processing) through
on-line data delivery systems. Core  processing services have historically  been
delivered to customers on a service bureau basis using custom-tailored mainframe
solutions;  however, with the  emergence of new  generation UNIX-based products,
the Company has altered its direction to  focus on these products, which can  be
installed  in-house  on  the  client's  hardware  or  run  in  a  service bureau
environment. With  the acquisition  of  two Texas-based  information  processing
companies  during fiscal 1995,  ACS enhanced its offerings  to these markets via
proprietary software products designed for in-house or service bureau processing
for banks  and credit  unions. With  these new  generation UNIX-based  products,
featuring   graphical-user-interface   (GUI)  pop-up   screens   and  relational
databases, the  Company  is  equipped  to offer  flexible  alternatives  to  its
existing  customers and  to pursue other  segments of  the financial institution
processing market. Item processing and back office services (including  proofing
and encoding, bulk filing and statement preparation) are provided by the Company
to  accommodate additional needs of customers. The Company's data processing and
item processing services to financial  institutions are typically priced on  the
basis  of account or item volume. The Company also offers a variety of ancillary
services and  products  to smaller  financial  institutions to  enable  them  to
compete  with larger financial institutions that offer a broad array of services
and  products  to   their  customers.  These   services  and  products   include
voice-response  access  banking, safe  deposit  box accounting,  cash management
services, imaging services, and optical disk/report recall and on-line reports.
 
    The Company's target financial services customer base is primarily regional,
non-money center banks, thrifts  and credit unions. As  of March 31, 1996,  data
processing  and/or item processing services were  provided to over 240 financial
institutions  and  other  customers,  over  100  of  which  received  full  data
processing  services.  The  Company also  provides  account  processing software
support and maintenance to over 130 financial institution customers who  utilize
its products in-house. Most of the Company's financial data processing customers
are based in the southwestern United States and check processing and back-office
services are provided in the southwestern and northeastern United States.
 
    In  addition to providing  core processing, item  processing and back-office
services, the Company  provides securities processing  services to  money-center
banks, mutual funds and limited partnerships using
 
                                       23
<PAGE>
proprietary  software. The services offered include stock transfer and corporate
reorganization services,  processing  for  partnerships and  mutual  funds,  and
processing for governmental escheatment proceedings. Through its data centers in
New  York, New York  and Boston, Massachusetts,  the Company provides securities
processing services to approximately 30  customers, which are primarily  located
in the northeastern United States.
 
IMAGE MANAGEMENT SERVICES
 
    The Company began offering image management services as a result of the 1992
acquisition  of Dataplex, which  was a part  of the Company's  strategy to offer
complementary services  to  its  outsourcing  customers.  The  Image  Management
division  ("Image Management") offers  services that convert  customer data into
suitable media, stores such data in a secure environment and retrieves  archived
data. Image Management also sells a variety of imaging equipment and supplies to
end users.
 
    Customer  information  is received  in  a variety  of  media such  as paper,
microfilm, computer tape, optical disk or CD ROM. Upon receipt, the  information
is  either duplicated, electronically scanned, or converted into another medium,
and then the information is processed for the customer in the desired medium. In
many instances,  a  copy  of the  information  is  stored on  microfilm  at  the
Company's 533-acre storage and retrieval facility.
 
    Image  Management uses several types of hardware and software to deliver its
services, including  electronic subscription-based  image processors,  microfilm
processors  and duplicators, rotary, planetary  and step-and-repeat cameras, COM
(computer output  to  microfiche)  recorders, optical  scanning  equipment,  and
client-server  and personal computers. The  Company delivers these services from
36 service centers in 19 states.
 
    Imaging services are generally priced  based upon the volume of  information
and  images (document pages,  COM frames, microfilm  rolls) processed, stored or
retrieved. The  Company  currently provides  imaging  services and  products  to
approximately  12,660  customers  nationwide.  Financial  institutions represent
approximately 53% of the Image Management customer base. Services generally  are
provided  under  one-year  renewable  contracts,  with  the  exception  of major
accounts, which operate under multi-year  contracts with initial terms of  three
years.  Imaging equipment  and supplies  are sold  to customers  on an as-needed
basis. Microfilm  is the  largest component  of supplies  sales and  is sold  to
customers who use microfilm in conjunction with other image management services.
 
    In  March  1996,  the  Company  acquired  a  majority  interest  in  Unibase
Technologies, Inc. ("Unibase"), a Utah-based provider of high speed data capture
services. Using  state-of-the-art  image  transmission,  storage  and  retrieval
technology,  millions of information records are digitized and transmitted daily
from customer locations  throughout the  country for  high-speed conversion  and
database update. Founded in 1985, Unibase currently employs over 1,300 full-time
employees  and  captures  over  100  million characters  of  data  each  day for
approximately 50 customers at 13 service centers in seven states and in Mexico.
 
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
 
    Through its  purchase in  January 1995  of  a majority  interest in  TSG,  a
Dallas-based professional services provider, the Company enhanced its ability to
offer  its customers high quality consulting, contract programming and technical
support services.  In  September  1995,  TSG  further  expanded  its  geographic
presence  with the acquisition of Technical  Directions, Inc., a San Diego-based
professional services provider. Founded in 1988, TSG currently has approximately
385 employees in offices located in Dallas/Ft. Worth, Atlanta and San Diego.
 
    TSG provides a variety of  clients with professional services allowing  such
clients  the opportunity  to use a  planned, flexible  workforce, either through
staff augmentation or by serving as  a client's in-house development staff.  Due
to  the nature of the work  performed, TSG's professional services are generally
offered on  an hourly  rate basis  to a  changing client  base under  short-term
contractual  arrangements. TSG's ability to  provide trained technical personnel
employing proven  methodologies enhances  ACS'  ability to  offer  complementary
services to clients and prospects dealing with technological change.
 
                                       24
<PAGE>
    Through  the acquisition in August 1995  of Medianet, Inc., based in Austin,
Texas, the  Company  began to  offer  back office  administrative  services  for
customers' co-op advertising promotion allowance programs. The services provided
by  ACS include consultation,  market planning and  analysis, audit and payment,
reporting, deduction tracking and database management.
 
    The Company further  expanded its professional  services offerings with  the
purchase  in December 1995 of a majority  interest in The LAN Company ("Lanco").
Lanco, based in Philadelphia, is a  provider of network design and  installation
services  and  document management  systems to  law  firms and  other commercial
customers in the Northeast. The acquisition is part of the Company's strategy to
bolster its presence in the local area/wide area network (LAN/WAN) market.
 
EFT TRANSACTION PROCESSING
 
    The Company engages  in the EFT  transaction processing business  both as  a
third-party  processor  for  retailers  and financial  institutions  and  on the
Company's own behalf. The Company's EFT business is primarily conducted  through
its MoneyMaker-SM- ATM network, which has been operated by the Company since its
formation in 1988. According to industry data as of September 1995, based on the
number  of network ATMs, the Company's MoneyMaker-SM-  ATM network is one of the
largest proprietary off-premise ATM networks in the United States. Approximately
100 million transactions were processed in the network during the twelve  months
ended  March 31,  1996. The  Company also  provides ATM  maintenance services to
MoneyMaker-SM- customers, as  well as to  owners of ATMs  in other networks.  In
addition,  the  Company's EFT  processing  business includes  electronic benefit
transfer ("EBT") services provided primarily to government agencies.
 
    In a typical  ATM transaction processed  by the Company,  a debit or  credit
cardholder  inserts  a  card,  which is  issued  by  the  cardholder's financial
institution (a "Card Issuer"), into an  ATM to withdraw funds, obtain a  balance
inquiry  or  transfer funds.  The  transaction is  routed  from the  ATM  to the
Company's data center. The Company's computer then identifies the Card Issuer by
the financial  institution identification  number  contained within  the  card's
magnetic  strip.  If the  Company maintains  the  Card Issuer's  account balance
information files, the Company authorizes  or denies the requested  transaction.
If  the Company does not maintain  the Card Issuer's account balance information
files, the  transaction  is  switched  to the  Card  Issuer  or  its  designated
processor  for authorization. Once authorization  is received, the authorization
message is routed back to the ATM and the transaction is completed.
 
    Throughout these steps,  the Company  charges various  fees that  may be  in
addition  to any fees that  the Card Issuer or  other ATM processor might charge
the customer. When the Company  processes the transaction for non-Company  owned
ATMs  and is also the Card Issuer's  processor, it receives an authorization fee
from  the  Card  Issuer  for  authorizing  the  transaction  and  updating   the
cardholder's  account information and a processing  fee from the ATM owner. When
the  Company  is  the  ATM  owner,  it  receives  an  interchange  fee  and   an
authorization fee from the Card Issuer, and may elect to charge the cardholder a
convenience  fee to be  added to the transaction  withdrawal amount. The Company
also receives a switch fee from  the Card Issuer for processing transactions  in
which the Card Issuer and the ATM owner are not processed by the same processor,
requiring  the  transaction to  be  switched to  another  network and  routed to
another switch for authorization.
 
    The  Company  markets  its  EFT  services  to  financial  institutions   and
retailers,  primarily  in the  southern United  States. At  March 31,  1996, the
Company processed  816  MoneyMaker-SM-  ATMs  and  1.1  million  card  accounts,
primarily   for  349  financial  institution   customers  located  in  Arkansas,
Louisiana, North  Carolina, New  Mexico, Mississippi  and Texas.  ATMs owned  by
financial  institutions are most often located  on the premises of the financial
institutions or its  branches. MoneyMaker-SM-  ATMs owned by  ACS are  generally
located  in retail locations such as  convenience stores and grocery stores. The
Company typically signs  three-to-seven year  contracts with  retailers for  the
right to place ATMs in retail store locations. In exchange, the Company pays the
retailer  a share of the  transaction-based fee revenue. At  March 31, 1996, the
Company had ATMs  in 997 retail  locations in  nine states. ACS  is required  to
provide cash to operate the ATMs it owns.
 
                                       25
<PAGE>
This  cash is provided by borrowings under a revolving credit facility and vault
cash  custody  arrangements  with  financial  institutions.  See   "Management's
Discussion    and   Analysis    of   Financial   Condition    and   Results   of
Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources."
 
    In fiscal 1993, the Company began to deploy low-cost ATM devices  throughout
the  United States. Utilizing cost-saving features such as retailer cash loading
and dial-up communications, these devices  make ATM services financially  viable
for retail locations generating less than half the transaction volume of typical
ATM  installations. ACS provides such retailers the option to own these devices,
enabling them  to receive  the associated  fees, while  paying the  Company  for
terminal  driving services. Alternatively, ACS may own the low-cost ATMs and pay
the retailer a share of the transaction-based fee. Approximately 3,200  low-cost
devices have been installed in retail sites in 43 states as of March 31, 1996.
 
    Through  arrangements with a number  of independent sales organizations, ACS
continues to grow its EFT network through the sale, placement and processing  of
a  variety of available ATMs.  The Company expects a  significant portion of the
future growth in its ATM network will be attributable to non-Company owned ATMs.
 
    The number  of financial  institutions for  which the  Company provides  EFT
processing services has grown 65% since June 30, 1992. The number of ATMs in the
network  has tripled since  1992. The following table  illustrates the growth of
the MoneyMaker-SM- ATM network since June 30, 1992:

(1) B of  A Texas  accounted for  approximately 300  ATMs and  over 2.2  million
    average  monthly transactions  prior to  their deconversion,  which began in
    February 1995. As of June 30,  1995, all of the B  of A Texas ATMs had  been
    deconverted. See Note 2 of the Notes to the Company's Consolidated Financial
    Statements.
 
    MoneyMaker-SM- processing contracts generally provide for an initial term of
three  to five  years and  automatically renew  unless notice  of non-renewal is
given prior  to expiration.  Charges for  services are  based primarily  on  the
volume  of transactions processed  and are collected  daily. Certain charges are
paid monthly. The Company  generally is permitted to  raise prices on an  annual
basis subject to limits based on a specified consumer price index.
 
    The   Company  provides  ATM  maintenance   services  to  approximately  325
customers, 76 of which are also EFT processing customers. As of March 31,  1996,
the  Company's 115 technicians  maintained approximately 4,480  ATM terminals of
various types in 27 states, approximately  one-half of which are also  processed
by  ACS  through  the MoneyMaker-SM-  ATM  network. In  addition  to maintenance
services,  the  Company  also  provides  armored  car  services  for  ATM   cash
replenishment  by subcontracting with  major armored car  companies. The Company
enters into standard ATM maintenance contracts with its customers that generally
provide for a minimum initial term of three years. These contracts automatically
renew for one year at the end of  the initial or any renewal term unless  either
party elects to cancel the agreement 60 days prior to the contract's expiration.
 
    The  Company provides EBT transaction  processing services to a governmental
agency through  its  subsidiary,  ACS  Government  Services,  Inc.  ("Government
Services").   EBT  systems   deliver  welfare  and   other  government  benefits
electronically using a debit-like  card, rather than by  check or other  printed
vouchers.  EBT services  are designed to  increase the  efficiency of government
distribution of welfare and  other benefits to recipients  and to reduce  system
fraud and abuse. Government Services' proprietary
 
                                       26
<PAGE>
software is currently one of five such software systems certified by the federal
government  for use in EBT programs with federal funding. The Company has formed
a joint  venture with  a minority-owned  company for  further marketing  of  EBT
services to government agencies.
 
DATA AND SERVICE CENTERS
 
    The  Company's outsourcing, EFT and electronic image management services are
provided through  the  Company's  extensive national  data  and  service  center
network,  which comprises two host data centers,  13 remote data centers, and 49
image management facilities  in 22 states  and Mexico, as  well as an  extensive
telecommunications network.
 
    The  Company's  multi-platform data  centers, located  in Dallas,  Texas and
Santa Clara, California, have a combined processing capacity of over 2,300  MIPS
(millions  of instructions per second).  Hardware and systems software platforms
currently operated by  the Company  include a  broad range  of on-line  IBM-MVS,
IBM-DOS,  IBM-VM,  IBM-AS400,  IBM-RISC  6000,  DEC,  Tandem/Guardian  and  UNIX
processing  environments.  To  compete  effectively  in  the  rapidly   changing
technology  market, it is critical that the Company implement and maintain these
multiple hardware  and software  platforms. The  Company continually  plans  for
testing  and  implementation of  new  technology and  emphasizes  flexibility in
structuring the services it offers using new technology.
 
    On August 31,  1994, the Company  entered into a  ten-year software  license
with  Computer  Associates International,  Inc., a  large provider  of mainframe
systems and client-server software ("CA"). The terms of the license make all  of
CA's mainframe systems software available to the Company and allow the Company's
outsourcing  customers  to operate  these products  under the  Company's license
instead of under separate licenses maintained by the customers. The Company also
is appointed as a reseller of CA's client-server software. The Company will  pay
an  annual license fee composed  of fixed minimum fees  plus a percentage of the
annual incremental increases in the Company's outsourcing revenues. The terms of
this license  will  not  have  a material  effect  on  the  Company's  financial
position, results of operation or liquidity.
 
    The  host  data  centers,  together with  remote  centers  serving financial
institution customers, are  capable of providing  comprehensive data  processing
services  required by ACS' customers. The  Company maintains a disaster recovery
plan with certain vendors  to provide alternative data  processing sites in  the
event the Company experiences a natural disaster or other interruption at one of
its data centers.
 
    The  Company also manages data communications  and, in some instances, voice
communications for its commercial customers, as  well as various local and  wide
area  networks. The  Company maintains  a nationwide  voice and  data network to
support the complex  telecommunications requirements of  its customer base.  The
Company  monitors  and  maintains network  lines  and circuits  on  a seven-day,
24-hour basis from a central computer installation in Dallas, Texas. The Company
also provides shared hub  satellite transmission services  as an alternative  to
multi-drop and point-to-point hard line telecommunication networks.
 
    The Company commits substantial amounts of its resources to the operation of
multiple  hardware platforms, the customization of third-party software programs
and the training of customer personnel in the use of such hardware and  software
in  order  to  stay current  with  rapid  technological changes  and  changes in
customer requirements.
 
CUSTOMER BASE
 
    The Company achieves  growth in  its data processing  revenues and  customer
base   through  marketing  and  acquisitions  of  other  information  processing
companies. Customers  may  be  lost at  the  expiration  of a  contract  due  to
conversion  to a competing processor or to an in-house system. Prior to contract
expiration, customers may be  lost due to business  failure or acquisition of  a
customer.  Except  for  one  customer, which  represented  7%  of  the Company's
revenues for the  nine months ended  March 31,  1996, no other  customer of  the
Company  represented over  3% of such  revenues. See  "Risk Factors--Reliance on
Significant Customers."
 
    As of March  31, 1996, the  Company had over  13,400 information  technology
customers,  including  approximately  460  outsourcing  customers,  12,715 image
management customers and approximately 250
 
                                       27
<PAGE>
professional services customers. In addition, the Company provides EFT  services
to  approximately 3,460 customers, consisting  of approximately 350 full-service
ATM customers,  over 2,780  low-cost ATM  customers, and  approximately 325  ATM
maintenance customers.
 
    Approximately  95% and 91% of the Company's revenues for fiscal 1995 and the
first nine  months  of  fiscal 1996,  respectively,  were  recurring.  Recurring
revenues  are defined by the Company as  revenues derived from services that are
used by  the Company's  customers each  year in  connection with  their  ongoing
businesses,  and accordingly exclude conversion  and deconversion fees, software
license fees, product installation fees and hardware sales.
 
    The Company's five largest customers accounted for approximately 30% and 27%
of the  Company's  fiscal  1994  and fiscal  1995  revenues,  respectively,  and
approximately  17% of revenues for  the first nine months  of the Company's 1996
fiscal year.  B of  A Texas,  historically the  largest of  the five  customers,
accounted  for approximately 14% and  11% of revenues in  fiscal 1994 and fiscal

SALES, MARKETING AND CUSTOMER SUPPORT
 
    The Company markets  its services  and products  primarily through  separate
sales forces located throughout the United States. In order to enhance its sales
and  marketing  efforts,  the  Company  hires  sales  representatives  who  have
significant experience  in  the industries  to  which they  will  be  marketing.
Maintaining  separate  sales forces  for its  various  service lines  allows the
Company's sales representatives to  concentrate on particular services,  product
technology  and  customer markets,  thereby staying  abreast of  developments in
these areas.
 
    The Company's  sales  force is  made  up  of 27  sales  representatives  for
outsourcing  services, 69 sales  representatives for image  management, 22 sales
representatives for professional services and  22 sales representatives for  EFT
transaction  processing services as of March  31, 1996. Sales representatives in
the various groups are  informed as to all  the Company's services and  products
and are encouraged to refer prospect leads to the appropriate professionals.
 
    The  Company  markets  its  information  processing  services  by  designing
custom-tailored solutions  that  are attractive  to  the customer  in  terms  of
features,   quality  of  service  and  price.  In  addition,  for  non-financial
institution  outsourcing  customers,   the  Company   sometimes  acquires   data
processing   assets,  and,  in  limited   circumstances,  makes  investments  in
securities issued  by or  provides  financial incentives  to the  customer.  The
aggregate  amount of such items since  the Company's inception through March 31,
1996 was approximately  $20.4 million.  These items  have been  recorded by  the
Company  at fair market value, with the remainder recorded as intangible assets,
which are then amortized over the term  of each contract. The net book value  of
such items was $11.6 million at March 31, 1996. See "Risk Factors -- Investments
Related to Significant Customer Contracts."
 
    The  Company provides  its information  processing customers  with extensive
support. For its  outsourcing customers,  the Company provides  (i) a  technical
support  group  to assist  customers  in evaluating  their  unique needs  and in
recommending and  implementing solutions,  (ii) a  production control  group  to
handle  the adaptation  of customer  application systems  to the  Company's data
processing centers and (iii) on-site operations analysts to assist with problems
and specific processing needs.  The Company makes  available to its  outsourcing
customers   a  seven-day,  24-hour  help  desk  to  provide  network  management
assistance  and  to  assist  in  defining  problems,  recommending  changes  and
assigning problem resolution responsibility to an employee of the Company. Other
customer  support services such  as data storage  management, data security, and
off-site disaster  recovery coordination  are offered  to all  of the  Company's
information processing customers through the Company's technical staff.
 
    The  Company commits substantial capital and resources to the customization,
enhancement and maintenance of the software systems that support its outsourcing
and image  management services.  The  Company believes  that its  commitment  to
software   development   and   enhancements   has   been,   and   will   be,   a
 
                                       28
<PAGE>
competitive factor in the outsourcing  and image management businesses.  Certain
of  the licensors of the software systems  used by the Company for its financial
services customers provide  regulatory and  other maintenance  services for  the
software, and the Company provides such services in some cases.
 
COMPETITION
 
    ACS  faces substantial competition in  its outsourcing, image management and
professional services  and  EFT  transaction  processing  businesses.  The  most
significant  competitive  factors  are  reliability  and  quality  of  services,
technical competence and  price of  services. In connection  with certain  large
outsourcing  contracts with non-financial institution customers, the Company may
be required to purchase data processing assets from the prospective customer  or
to  make an investment in  the securities issued by  the prospective customer in
order to  obtain  their contracts.  See  "Risk Factors--Investments  Related  to
Significant   Customer  Contracts."  Many  of  the  Company's  competitors  have
substantially greater assets  and thus,  may have  a greater  ability to  obtain
customer contracts where sizable asset purchases or investments are required. In
recent  years, several large hardware vendors  have begun to compete directly in
the outsourcing  business.  To  maintain  competitive  prices,  the  Company  is
required  to operate with  efficient and low  overhead, and it  must acquire and
maintain a significant  customer base  and account/transaction  base to  achieve
sufficient  economies of scale. The  Company's principal outsourcing competitors
include  Electronic  Data  Systems   Corporation  ("EDS"),  Integrated   Systems
Solutions  Corporation  (a subsidiary  of  IBM), Computer  Sciences Corporation,
FIserv, Inc. and other regional competitors.
 
    Competitive factors in  the EFT services  business are network  availability
and  response time, terminal location and access to other networks. With respect
to off-premise  ATMs,  additional  competitive factors  include  percentage  and
timing  of revenue sharing with retailers providing ATM sites and the ability to
provide cost-efficient ATM cash replenishment and maintenance services. Customer
retention in the EFT services  business is closely associated with  satisfactory
location  and performance of ATMs. Principal EFT competitors include EDS, Deluxe
Data Corporation, large financial institutions and several regional ATM networks
and processors.
 
    The Company  competes  successfully  in the  image  management  business  by
offering  a  complete  range  of services  and  achieving  favorable  pricing by
maintaining a significant volume of business with equipment and media suppliers.
Principal information  management competitors  include numerous  small-to-medium
size local and regional competitors.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
    As  of March  31, 1996, the  Company and its  subsidiaries had approximately
4,900  full-time  employees.  Approximately   320  production  and   maintenance
employees in Dataplex's Flora, Mississippi records center are represented by the
Southern  Council of  Industrial Workers.  A collective  bargaining agreement is
currently being negotiated and the Company  does not anticipate a work  stoppage
or  strike. Other  than the  approximately 320  Dataplex employees,  none of the
Company's or its subsidiaries' employees  are currently represented by a  union.
The  Company has  never experienced  any work  stoppages or  strikes. Management
considers its relations with its employees to be good.
 
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
 
    The Company  is  not  directly  subject  to  federal  or  state  regulations
specifically  applicable to financial institutions. As a provider of services to
banking institutions, however, the Company's outsourcing operations are examined
from time  to time  by  various state  and  federal regulatory  agencies.  These
agencies  make  recommendations  to  the Company  regarding  various  aspects of
outsourcing   operations   and   generally    the   Company   implements    such
recommendations. The Company also arranges for an annual independent examination
of its bank data processing facilities.
 
    The  Company's  ATM network  operations are  subject to  federal regulations
governing consumers' rights with  respect to ATM  transactions. Fees charged  by
ATM  owners are currently regulated or  similar legislation has been proposed in
several states  and  there can  be  no  assurance whether  such  regulations  or
legislation  will continue to be enacted in the future or that existing consumer
protection laws will not be expanded to apply to fees charged in connection with
ATM transactions.

PROPERTY AND OPERATIONS
 
    The Company's executive offices and primary host data center are located  in
a  facility of approximately 218,000 square feet in Dallas, Texas. This facility
was purchased by the  Company in December 1995.  In September 1995, the  Company
also purchased a 350,000 square foot building adjacent to its headquarters to be
renovated for expansion of the Company's operations. The Company also has a host
data  center in Santa  Clara, California with  approximately 55,000 square feet,
the lease on which has an expiration date of November 30, 1997. The Company's 13
remote data centers have varying lease  expiration terms and range in size  from
4,400   square  feet  to   46,000  square  feet  and   are  located  in  Boston,
Massachusetts; New York, Pearl River, Woodbury and Utica, New York; New  Orleans
and  Baton Rouge, Louisiana; and  Austin (2), Fort Worth,  Houston (2) and Waco,
Texas. Included in  the 49  image management  service centers  is the  Company's
records  center in  Flora, Mississippi.  The records center  is on  533 acres of
land, of which the Company owns 334 acres with 38 underground bunkers and leases
199 acres with 23  underground bunkers. The  remaining service center  locations
are  leased and range  in size from 300  square feet to  56,800 square feet. The
Company also  leases 23  other facilities  used for  office or  warehouse  space
ranging  from 450 square  feet to 40,530  square feet. All  properties leased or
owned by  the Company  are in  good repair  and in  suitable condition  for  the
purposes for which they are used.
 
    ACS  leases four Amdahl  mainframes, five Tandem  mid-range computers, seven
IBM mid-range computers,  seven Digital  Equipment mid-range  computers and  one
Hewlett  Packard mid-range computer under operating leases. The initial terms of
the leases range  from 36  to 60  months. Approximately  90% of  the other  data
processing  equipment located in the Company's data centers is leased, generally
for terms ranging from 36 to 60 months. ACS believes its computer equipment,  as
periodically expanded and upgraded, is adequate for its present business needs.
 
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
    On  October 31, 1995, the  Fifth District Court of  Appeals in Dallas, Texas
(the "Court of Appeals") affirmed the judgment  of the trial court in an  action
between the Company and Thomas McLaughlin and John Lazovich. The trial court had
rendered  a verdict  in favor  of Messrs. McLaughlin  and Lazovich  on causes of
action for  tortious  interference  with an  acquisition  agreement  entered  by
Messrs.  McLaughlin and  Lazovich and  First Texas  Savings Association  in 1986
related to the acquisition of an electronic benefit transfer business. The total
amount of  the judgment  against  the Company,  ACS Government  Services,  Inc.,
Darwin  Deason, and  J. Livingston  Kosberg, a  former director  of the Company,
including interest, is approximately $9.0  million, which includes $3.0  million
in  actual  damages  and $1.5  million  in  exemplary damages.  The  Company has
indemnified Mr. Deason and Mr. Kosberg from any liability arising from the suit.
The Company has appealed the decision of the Court of Appeals.
 
    On October  10, 1995,  the  Company filed  a counterclaim  against  National
Convenience  Stores,  Incorporated  ("NCS")  alleging that  NCS  had  breached a
contract with the Company and seeking unspecified damages. This counterclaim was
filed in response to  an action filed  by NCS against the  Company in the  101st
Judicial District Court in Dallas, Texas seeking a declaratory judgment that NCS
is  not contractually  obligated to  allow the Company  to review  and match any
third party proposal  to process automated  teller machines in  NCS stores  upon
expiration  of the contract with the Company, pursuant to its terms, on December
1, 1995. The Company intends to vigorously oppose this action and to pursue  the
claims asserted in the counterclaim.
 
    Various  other legal  actions, all  of which arose  in the  normal course of
business, are pending.  Neither the above  described litigation nor  any of  the
Company's  routine litigation, individually or in  the aggregate, is expected to
have a material adverse effect on  the Company's financial condition or  results
of operations.

                                 REORGANIZATION
 
    On  June 30 and July 5, 1994, the Company completed a series of transactions
to (i) reclassify  the Company's  capital stock  (the "Reclassification"),  (ii)
merge  Affiliated Computer Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation and subsidiary
of the  Company ("Services"),  into the  Company, (iii)  contribute the  capital
stock of Affiliated Computer Systems Funding Corporation, a Delaware corporation
and  wholly owned subsidiary  of the Company ("Funding"),  to Precept, (iv) spin
off all of the capital stock of  Precept to the Company's stockholders on a  pro
rata  basis, (v)  merge Dataplex Acquisition  Corp., a  Delaware corporation and
subsidiary of the Company ("DAC") that owned all of the stock of Dataplex,  into
the  Company and (vi) change the Company's name to Affiliated Computer Services,
Inc.  The  foregoing   transactions  are   collectively  referred   to  as   the
"Reorganization."
 
RECLASSIFICATION
 
    The  Company's  Certificate of  Incorporation was  amended  in June  1994 to
increase the  authorized capital  stock  of the  Company to  25,000,000  shares,
consisting  of 3,000,000 shares  of Preferred Stock, par  value $1.00 per share,
17,195,742 shares  of Class  A Common  Stock,  par value  $0.01 per  share,  and
4,804,258  shares  of  Class B  Common  Stock,  par value  $0.01  per  share. In
addition, the Company effected a reclassification of each previously outstanding
share of Class A  Common Stock, par  value $0.00029 per  share, of the  Company,
each  previously outstanding share  of Class B Common  Stock, par value $0.00016
per share,  of the  Company and  each previously  outstanding share  of Class  C
Common Stock, par value $0.00029 per share, of the Company into 5,565,432 shares
of  Class  A  Common Stock  and  4,804,258 shares  of  Class B  Common  Stock in
accordance with the elections of the stockholders of the Company. As a result of
the foregoing and the  issuance of shares  of Class A  Common Stock to  minority
stockholders  of DAC  in connection  with the  merger of  DAC into  the Company,
5,595,245 shares of Class A Common Stock and 4,804,258 shares of Class B  Common
Stock  were outstanding immediately prior  to the IPO. For  a description of the
rights of and restrictions on the capital stock of the Company, see "Description
of Capital Stock."
 
MERGER OF SERVICES AND DAC
 
    As part of the Reorganization, effective June 30, 1994, Services was  merged
with  and  into the  Company,  with the  Company  as the  surviving corporation.
Effective July 5,  1994, DAC  was merged  with and  into the  Company, with  the
Company  as  the  surviving corporation  and  with Dataplex  thereby  becoming a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In  connection with the DAC merger,  the
Company's  name  was  changed  to Affiliated  Computer  Services,  Inc.  Also in
connection with  these  mergers,  all  outstanding  employee  stock  options  of
Services and DAC were converted into equivalent value options to purchase shares
of  the Company's Class A  Common Stock, the outstanding  shares of DAC's common
stock not owned  by the  Company were  exchanged for  29,813 shares  of Class  A
Common Stock of the Company, the DAC Series B Preferred Stock was canceled (with
respect  to shares owned by the Company) or redeemed (with respect to shares not
owned by the Company), and the  1,000 outstanding shares of Services'  preferred
stock  were  exchanged for  1,000  shares of  Series  A Preferred  Stock  of the
Company. The conversions of employee stock options were based on an opinion from
an independent  valuation company  and did  not result  in any  increase in  the
intrinsic value of the options, reduction in the ratio of the exercise price per
share   to  the  market  value  per  share  or  change  in  vesting  provisions.
Accordingly,  in  accordance  with  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board
Emerging  Issues  Task Force  Issue No.  90-9,  the Company  did not  record any
compensation expense as a result of such conversions.
 
SPIN-OFF OF PRECEPT
 
    Immediately following the  Services merger, the  Company contributed all  of
the  capital  stock  of  Funding  to  Precept,  a  business  products  and forms
distributor that was formed by the Company in October 1988. As a result of  this
contribution,  Precept became  the owner  of all  of the  Company's business not
related to data processing, EFT transaction processing or image management, with
a net  book value  of approximately  $20.0 million  as of  June 30,  1994. As  a
result, Precept, directly or through its subsidiaries, is a provider of business
support services, including business forms and products distribution and courier
and limousine services.
 
                                       35
<PAGE>
Precept also owns certain construction and property management operations. David
L.  Neely,  a former  Executive  Vice President  of  the Company,  is  the Chief
Executive Officer of  Precept, and Darwin  Deason is a  director and has  voting
control of Precept.
 
    Following  the  contribution of  the capital  stock  of Funding  to Precept,
Precept's articles of incorporation were amended to reclassify the capital stock
of Precept into 17,195,742 shares of Class  A Common Stock, par value $0.01  per
share,  of Precept (the "Precept Class A  Common Stock") and 4,804,258 shares of
Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Precept (the "Precept  Class
B  Common Stock"). The rights of and  restrictions on the Precept Class A Common
Stock and the Precept  Class B Common  Stock are substantially  the same as  the
rights  of and restrictions  on the Company's  Class A Common  Stock and Class B
Common Stock, respectively.
 
    Immediately following the  reclassification of the  Precept shares, on  June
30,  1994 the  Company declared a  dividend on  a pro rata  basis of  all of the
shares of Precept  Class A  Common Stock  to holders  of the  Company's Class  A
Common Stock and of all of the shares of Precept Class B Common Stock to holders
of  the Company's Class B  Common Stock (the "Spin-Off")  and entered into a tax
indemnification agreement  with  such  stockholders. Immediately  prior  to  the
Spin-Off,  the Company received an opinion from an independent valuation company
that the fair market value of the Precept stock distributed in the Spin-Off  was
$13.1  million  as of  June  30, 1994.  Accordingly,  the business  conducted by
Precept and the  related assets  and liabilities  are no  longer a  part of  the
Company.  In addition, the Company is subject to tax indemnification obligations
incurred in connection with  the distribution of the  Precept shares. See  "Risk
Factors-- Indemnification of Stockholders for Spin-Off."
 
    The  Spin-Off was  structured to  qualify for  tax-free treatment  under the
Code. Prior to the Spin-Off, the Board  of Directors of the Company received  an
opinion  of counsel to the effect that it is more likely than not that, pursuant
to Section 355  of the Code,  no gain or  loss should be  recognized to (and  no
amount should be included in the income of) the stockholders of the Company, nor
should  any  gain  or  loss be  recognized  to  the Company,  by  reason  of the
distribution of  the stock  of Precept  as contemplated  by the  Spin-Off.  Such
opinion  is conditioned upon certain representations of the stockholders and the
management of the Company  as to certain facts  and circumstances, upon  certain
assumptions  and upon  the effectiveness of  certain restrictions.  One of these
restrictions (the "linked sales restriction") requires, in part, that any  sales
or  exchanges of shares of the Company's  Class A Common Stock (or the Company's
Class B Common Stock, whether or not converted into the Company's Class A Common
Stock prior to sale) that were held prior to the IPO and that are to be sold  or
disposed  of during the two-year period  following the Spin-Off must be effected
in conjunction with the sale at approximately the same time of an equal  portion
of  the holder's shares of Precept Class A or B Common Stock. Holders of Precept
Class A or B Common Stock subject to the linked sales restriction who desire  to
sell  or dispose of their shares of Precept Class A or B Common Stock during the
two-year period following the Spin-Off, and who are unable to sell their  shares
of  Precept Class A or B Common Stock to  a third party, may elect to sell their
shares of Precept Class A or B Common Stock to Precept at approximately the same
time in order to satisfy the linked sales restriction. The purchase price to  be
paid  by Precept for such shares is $1.26 per share, which was based on the fair
market value of the Precept stock distributed in the Spin-Off, as determined  by
an  independent valuation  company as  of June  30, 1994,  and is  payable in 15
years, without interest, pursuant to a promissory note from Precept. In the case
of Mr. Deason, the linked sales restriction may be satisfied only by the sale of
the requisite number of Precept shares to an unrelated third party. In the  case
of  each other stockholder of the Company prior to the IPO, such requirement may
be satisfied by the sale of the Precept shares to Precept, but only if such sale
effects at least a  20% reduction in the  stockholder's interest in Precept  and
certain other conditions are satisfied, or to a third party.
 
    The  opinion  of  counsel received  by  the Company  regarding  the tax-free
treatment of the Spin-Off is not binding on  the IRS or on the courts and  there
can  be no  assurance that  the IRS  or a  court will  agree with  that opinion.
Accordingly, the Company has agreed to indemnify the Company's stockholders,  on
a  net after-tax basis, for any  actual taxes (including penalties, interest and
legal fees), net of the actual  or assumed benefit resulting from increased  tax
basis, that may be asserted against the Company's stockholders on the basis that
the  Spin-Off fails  to qualify  under Section  355 of  the Code.  The Company's
aggregate indemnification
 
                                       36
<PAGE>
liability is limited to $5 million,  reduced by the Company's expenses  incurred
in  connection  with determining  qualification under  Section 355.  The Company
believes that, if the Spin-Off were to fail to qualify under Section 355 of  the
Code,  there should be no material tax-related consequences to the Company other
than pursuant  to the  indemnification.  See "Risk  Factors--Indemnification  of
Stockholders for Spin-Off."
 
    In  connection with the Reorganization, the Company and Precept entered into
a reciprocal services  agreement pursuant  to which Precept  will sell  business
forms and supplies, and provide courier, third-party benefit plan administration
and  certain other administrative consulting and building management services to
the Company,  and the  Company  will provide  office  space and  human  resource
services to Precept. The prices for all services, forms and supplies provided by
Precept to the Company under such agreement must be no less favorable than could
be  obtained from an independent third party and are subject to review from time
to time by a committee of independent  directors of the Company. The prices  for
all  services provided  by the Company  to Precept will  be at no  less than the
Company's direct cost. The costs incurred  by the Company for services  provided
by  Precept covered by such reciprocal services agreement, which are believed to
approximate fair market  value, were approximately  $4.5 million, $4.7  million,
and  $5.8 million,  for the fiscal  years ended  June 30, 1993,  1994, and 1995,
respectively. In addition to these services, Precept historically provided other
services to  the  Company,  including human  resource  administration,  building
administration  and  maintenance services,  and  equipment leasing  services. In
connection with the Reorganization, effective July 1, 1994 the Precept employees
who provided these services, with  the exception of certain building  management
employees,  were transferred to the Company  and such services are now performed
directly by the Company.  The Company either did  not historically provide  such
services to Precept or did not charge Precept for such services.
 
    In   addition,  the   Company  and  Precept   entered  into   (i)  a  mutual
indemnification agreement that defines the parties' rights and obligations  with
respect   to  any  claims,  liabilities  or  losses  relating  to  the  parties'
businesses, (ii) a tax-sharing  agreement that defines  the parties' rights  and
obligations  with respect  to federal, state  and other income  or franchise tax
matters and (iii)  a noncompetition agreement  under which each  of the  parties
agreed  not to compete  in the business of  the other party for  a period of two
years.
 
                          DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
 
    The Company is authorized to issue up to 17,195,742 shares of Class A Common

Class B Common Stock, as well  as the Company's Preferred Stock, are  summarized
below.  The  following summary  description of  the  Company's capital  stock is
qualified in its entirety by reference  to the Certificate of Incorporation  and
the Bylaws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to the Company's reports
or registration statements filed with the Commission.
 
PREFERRED STOCK
 
    The  Board of  Directors has  the authority,  without further  action by the
stockholders, to issue up to 2,999,000 shares of Preferred Stock in one or  more
series  and to fix the rights,  preferences, privileges and restrictions granted
to or imposed upon any unissued shares of Preferred Stock and to fix the  number
of  shares  constituting any  series and  the designations  of such  series. The
issuance of  Preferred Stock  could adversely  affect the  voting power  of  the
holders  of  common stock  and  the likelihood  that  such holders  will receive
dividend payments  and payments  upon liquidation  and may  have the  effect  of
delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company.
 
    In  connection with the  Reorganization, 1,000 shares  of Series A Preferred
Stock were issued in exchange for the outstanding shares of preferred stock of a
subsidiary that was merged into the Company.
 
                                       37
<PAGE>
The Series A Preferred Stock is redeemable  through July 15, 1999 at a price  of
$1,100  per share plus accrued and unpaid  dividends and is subject to mandatory
redemption on July 15, 1999. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock accrue at
a rate of 9% per annum and are cumulative. In addition, the terms of the  Series
A  Preferred Stock require  a sinking fund with  quarterly deposits through June
30, 1999. Holders of  the Series A  Preferred Stock have the  right at any  time
after July 1, 1996 to convert all, but not less than all, such shares into Class
A  Common Stock determined by  (a) multiplying the number  of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock held by such  holder by $1,100, (b)  dividing the result by  the
price  per share of the Class A Common  Stock as determined on the next business
day occurring on or after 10 days following the date of the Company's receipt of
the conversion notice based on the average  of the bid and asked prices for  the
Class  A Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market, and (c) rounding the result
to the nearest whole number. Holders of  the Series A Preferred Stock also  have
the  right to cause the Company to register  such shares of Class A Common Stock
for public sale after the conversion described above until September 15, 1996.
 
CLASS A AND CLASS B COMMON STOCK
 
    VOTING RIGHTS
 
    Each share of Class A Common Stock is entitled to one vote and each share of
Class B Common Stock is entitled to ten votes on all matters submitted to a vote
of the stockholders. Except as otherwise  provided by law, Class A Common  Stock
and  Class  B  Common Stock  vote  together as  a  single class  on  all matters
presented for a vote of the stockholders. Neither class of the Company's  common
stock has cumulative voting rights.
 
    CONVERSION
 
    Class  A Common Stock has no conversion rights. Each share of Class B Common
Stock is convertible  at any  time, at  the option of  and without  cost to  the
stockholder,  into  one share  of Class  A  Common Stock  upon surrender  to the
Company's transfer agent of the certificate or certificates evidencing the Class
B Common Stock to be converted, together  with a written notice of the  election
of  such stockholder to convert such shares into Class A Common Stock. Shares of
Class B Common Stock will also be automatically converted into shares of Class A
Common Stock on the occurrence of certain events described below. Once shares of
Class B Common Stock  are converted into  shares of Class  A Common Stock,  such
shares may not be converted back into Class B Common Stock.
 
    RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF CLASS A AND CLASS B COMMON STOCK
 
    No  person or  entity holding  shares of  Class B  Common Stock  (a "Class B
Holder") may transfer such shares,  whether by sale, assignment, gift,  bequest,
appointment  or  otherwise, except  to  a Permitted  Transferee  (as hereinafter
defined). In the  case of  a Class  B Holder  who is  a natural  person and  the
beneficial  owner  of  shares of  Class  B  Common Stock  to  be  transferred, a
Permitted Transferee consists  of (i)  such Class B  Holder's spouse;  provided,
however,  that upon divorce any  Class B Common Stock  held by such spouse shall
automatically be converted into Class A Common Stock, (ii) any lineal descendant
of any great-grandparent of such Class B Holder, including adopted children, and
such descendant's spouse (such descendants and their spouses, together with such
Class B Holder's spouse, are referred to as "family members"), (iii) the trustee
of a trust for the sole  benefit of such Class B Holder  or any of such Class  B
Holder's  family members, (iv)  any charitable organization  established by such
Class B  Holder  or  any of  such  Class  B Holder's  family  members,  (v)  any
partnership  made up exclusively of such Class B  Holder and any of such Class B
Holder's family members or any corporation  wholly-owned by such Class B  Holder
and  any of such Class B Holder's family members; provided that, if there is any
change in  the partners  of such  partnership  or in  the stockholders  of  such
corporation  that would cause such partnership or  corporation no longer to be a
Permitted Transferee,  any Class  B Common  Stock held  by such  partnership  or
corporation  shall automatically be converted into  Class A Common Stock. In the
case of a  Class B  Holder that  is a  partnership or  corporation, a  Permitted
Transferee  consists of  (i) such  partnership's partners  or such corporation's
stockholders, as the  case may be,  (ii) any transferor  to such partnership  or
corporation  of shares  of Class  B Common  Stock after  the record  date of the
initial distribution of Class B Common  Stock and (iii) successors by merger  or
consolidation.  In the case of a Class B  Holder that is an irrevocable trust on
the record  date  of the  distribution  of Class  B  Common Stock,  a  Permitted
Transferee  consists of (i)  certain successor trustees of  such trust, (ii) any
person  to   whom  or   for   whose  benefit   principal   or  income   may   be
 
                                       38
<PAGE>
distributed  under the terms of such trust or  any person to whom such trust may
be obligated to make future transfers, provided such obligation exists prior  to
the  date such  trust becomes  a holder of  Class B  Common Stock  and (iii) any
family member of the creator of such trust. In the case of a Class B Holder that
is any trust other than an irrevocable trust on the date of the distribution  of
Class  B Common Stock, a Permitted  Transferee consists of (i) certain successor
trustees of such trust and (ii) the  person who established such trust and  such
person's  Permitted Transferees. Upon  the death or  permanent incapacity of any
Class B  Holder, such  Holder's  Class B  Common  Stock shall  automatically  be
converted  into Class A  Common Stock. All  shares of Class  B Common Stock will
automatically convert into shares of Class  A Common Stock on the ninetieth  day
after  the death of  Darwin Deason or upon  the conversion by  Mr. Deason of all
Class B Common Stock  beneficially owned by  Mr. Deason into  shares of Class  A
Common Stock.
 
    Subject  to compliance  with applicable securities  laws, shares  of Class B
Common Stock are freely transferable among Permitted Transferees, but any  other
transfer  of Class B Common  Stock will result in  its automatic conversion into
Class A Common Stock. The restriction on  transfers of shares of Class B  Common
Stock  to other than  a Permitted Transferee  may preclude or  delay a change in
control of the Company.
 
    Prior to the  Spin-Off, the Board  of Directors of  the Company received  an
opinion  of counsel to the effect that it is more likely than not that, pursuant
to Section 355  of the Code,  no gain or  loss should be  recognized to (and  no
amount should be included in the income of) the stockholders of the Company, nor
should  any  gain  or  loss be  recognized  to  the Company,  by  reason  of the
distribution of  the stock  of Precept  as contemplated  by the  Spin-Off.  Such
opinion  is conditioned upon certain representations of the stockholders and the
management of the  Company as to  certain facts and  circumstances upon  certain
assumptions  and upon  the effectiveness of  certain restrictions.  One of these
restrictions (the "linked sales restriction") requires, in part, that any  sales
or  exchanges of shares of the Company's  Class A Common Stock (or the Company's
Class B Common Stock, whether or not converted into the Company's Class A Common
Stock prior to sale) that were held prior to the IPO and that are to be sold  or
disposed  of during the two-year period  following the Spin-Off must be effected
in conjunction with the sale at approximately the same time an equal portion  of
the  holder's shares of  Precept Class A  or B Common  Stock. Holders of Precept
Class A or B Common Stock subject to the linked sales restriction who desire  to
sell  or  dispose of  their  shares of  Precept  Class A  or  B Common  Stock in
connection with  any sales  of the  Company's Class  A Common  Stock during  the
two-year  period following the Spin-Off, and who are unable to sell their shares
of Precept Class A or B Common Stock  to a third party, may elect to sell  their
shares of Precept Class A or B Common Stock to Precept at approximately the same
time  in order to satisfy the linked sales restriction. The purchase price to be
paid by Precept for such shares will be $1.26 per share, which was based on  the
fair  market  value  of  the  Precept  stock  distributed  in  the  Spin-Off, as
determined by an independent valuation company as of June 30, 1994, and will  be
payable  in  15 years,  without  interest, pursuant  to  a promissory  note from
Precept. In  the  case  of Mr.  Deason,  the  linked sales  restriction  may  be
satisfied  only by  the sale  of the  requisite number  of Precept  shares to an
unrelated third party.  In the  case of each  other stockholder  of the  Company
prior  to the IPO, such requirement may be  satisfied by the sale of the Precept
shares to Precept, but only if such sale effects at least a 20% reduction in the
stockholder's interest in Precept and certain other conditions are satisfied, or
to a third party.
 
    DIVIDENDS AND LIQUIDATION RIGHTS
 
    The holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are entitled to
receive dividends out of assets legally available therefore at such times and in
such amounts as the  Board of Directors  may from time  to time determine.  Upon
liquidation  and dissolution of the Company, the holders of Class A Common Stock
and Class  B Common  Stock are  entitled  to receive  all assets  available  for
distribution to stockholders.
 
    OTHER RIGHTS
 
    The  holders  of Class  A  Common Stock  and Class  B  Common Stock  are not
entitled to preemptive or  subscription rights, and there  are no redemption  or
sinking fund provisions applicable to such common stock.
 
                                       39

WARRANT
 
    In  January  1989,  the  Company entered  into  a  ten-year  data processing
contract and issued a warrant to  a data processing customer under an  agreement
(the "Warrant Agreement"), which became exercisable in part in January 1996. The
Warrant Agreement entitles the customer to purchase 396,594 shares (adjusted for
the  Reorganization)  of the  Company's Class  A Common  Stock for  an aggregate
purchase price equal to (i) $4,700,000 plus (ii) $230,000 for each full 12-month
period that  has elapsed  from December  31, 1988.  In addition,  the  aggregate
purchase  price is increased by 10% per annum, accrued daily but not compounded.
Shares may  be purchased  under the  Warrant Agreement  in increments  beginning
January  1, 1996 as  follows: up to  99,149 shares from  January 1, 1996 through
December 31, 1996; up to 99,149 share from January 1, 1997 through December  31,
1997,  plus any shares not purchased in the prior year; up to 99,148 shares from
January 1, 1998 through December 31, 1998, plus any shares not purchased in  the
prior two years; and up to 99,148 shares on January 2, 1999, plus any shares not
purchased  in the prior three years. The  purchase price for shares purchased in
1996 would  be $28.60  per share,  plus accrued  daily interest  for that  year;
$32.04  per share  for shares  purchased in  1997, plus  accrued daily interest;
$35.82 per share for shares purchased in 1998, plus accrued daily interest;  and
$39.98  per share  for shares  purchased through  January 2,  1999, plus accrued
daily interest. The Warrant Agreement expires  on the earlier of (i) January  2,
1999 or (ii) any termination of the customer's data processing contract with the
Company.  In  connection with  entering into  the  data processing  contract the
customer also acquired 396,594 shares  (adjusted for the Reorganization) of  the
Company's  Class A Common Stock, which shares were subject to certain forfeiture
provisions relating to any early termination of the data processing contract.
 
CERTAIN EFFECTS OF AUTHORIZED BUT UNISSUED STOCK
 
    One of  the effects  of the  existence of  unissued and  unreserved Class  A
Common  Stock and  Preferred Stock may  be to  enable the Board  of Directors to
render more  difficult or  to discourage  an attempt  to obtain  control of  the
Company  by means  of a  merger, tender offer,  proxy contest  or otherwise, and
thereby to  protect the  continuity  of the  Company's  management. If,  in  the
exercise  of its fiduciary obligations, for example, the Board of Directors were
to determine that a takeover proposal  was not in the Company's best  interests,
the  Board of Directors could issue  such authorized but unissued shares without
stockholder approval in one  or more private  placements or other  transactions.
Such  an  issuance could  dilute  the voting  or  other rights  of  the proposed
acquiror, insurgent stockholder or stockholder  group by creating a  substantial
voting  block in institutional or other hands that could support the position of
the incumbent  Board  of  Directors  by  effecting  an  acquisition  that  might
complicate or preclude the takeover.
 
CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS
 
    The following description of certain provisions of the Company's Certificate
of  Incorporation and Bylaws  is qualified in  its entirety by  reference to the
Certificate of Incorporation  and Bylaws,  copies of  which have  been filed  as
exhibits  to the  Company's reports  or registration  statements filed  with the
Commission.
 
    The Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws contain several provisions  that
may  be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, defer or prevent a
tender offer  or takeover  attempt. The  Certificate of  Incorporation does  not
provide  for cumulative voting and, accordingly, Mr.  Deason, as the holder of a
majority of the outstanding voting power, can currently elect all the members of
the Board of  Directors. See "Risk  Factors--Voting Control by  Chairman of  the
Board."
 
    Under  the  DGCL,  any action  required  or  permitted to  be  taken  by the
stockholders of a  corporation may  be taken  only at  a duly  called annual  or
special meeting of stockholders. The Bylaws provide that special meetings of the
stockholders  of the Company may be called only  by the Chairman of the Board of
Directors, the President, a majority of the members of the Board of Directors or
the holders  of a  majority of  the voting  power of  the Company's  outstanding
capital stock. These provisions could have the effect of delaying until the next
annual  stockholders' meeting actions that  are not favored by  the holders of a
majority of the voting  power of the outstanding  capital stock of the  Company.
Moreover, the Bylaws authorize the stockholders of
 
                                       40
<PAGE>
the  Company  to take  action  by written  consent signed  by  the holders  of a
majority of  the  voting  power  of the  Company's  outstanding  capital  stock,
provided  that  written  notice is  given  to  those stockholders  who  have not
consented in writing.
 
    Under the DGCL, the approval of a Delaware corporation's board of directors,
in addition to stockholder approval, is  required to adopt any amendment to  the
company's  certificate of incorporation, but the exclusive power to adopt, amend
and repeal the  bylaws is  conferred solely  upon the  stockholders, unless  the
corporation's  certificate of incorporation also confers such power on its board
of directors. The  Certificate of Incorporation  grants the power  to amend  the
Bylaws to the Board of Directors.
 
    The Certificate of Incorporation contains certain provisions permitted under
the DGCL that limit the liability of directors.
 
    In  addition to the foregoing provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation
and Bylaws, the Company is subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL,
which restricts the  consummation of certain  business combination  transactions
(including  mergers, stock and  asset sales and  other transactions resulting in
financial benefit to the stockholder) between a Delaware public corporation  and
an  "interested stockholder"  for a  period of  three years  after the  date the
interested stockholder  acquired  its  stock.  An  "interested  stockholder"  is
defined  as a person who, together with any affiliates and/or associates of such
person, beneficially owns 15% or more of  any class or series of stock  entitled
to  vote in the election  of directors, unless, among  other exceptions, (i) the
transaction is approved by (a) the corporation's board of directors prior to the
date the interested stockholder  acquired such shares or  (b) a majority of  the
board  of directors and by the affirmative  vote of the holders of two-thirds of
the outstanding  shares  of each  class  or series  of  stock entitled  to  vote
generally  in the election of  directors, not including the  shares owned by the
interested stockholder, or (ii) the interested stockholder acquired at least 85%
of the voting stock of the corporation in the transaction in which it became  an
interested  stockholder.  Section  203 of  the  DGCL is  intended  to discourage
certain takeover practices  by impeding  the ability  of a  hostile acquiror  to
engage in certain transactions with the target company.
 
    Moreover,  the Bylaws contain a provision that permits any contract or other
transaction  between  the  Company  and  any  of  its  directors,  officers   or
stockholders  (or any corporation or  firm in which any  of them are directly or
indirectly  interested)  to  be  valid  notwithstanding  the  presence  of  such
director,  officer or  stockholder at the  meeting authorizing  such contract or
transaction, or  his participation  or  vote in  such stockholder's  meeting  or
authorization subject to certain conditions, including disclosure.

</TABLE>
 
    The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligations of the Underwriters
are subject to certain  conditions precedent and that,  if any of the  foregoing
shares of Class A Common Stock are purchased by the Underwriters pursuant to the
Underwriting  Agreement, all such shares must  be so purchased. The Company and,
to a  limited extent,  the Selling  Stockholders have  agreed to  indemnify  the
Underwriters  against  certain  liabilities,  including  liabilities  under  the
Securities Act,  or to  contribute  to payments  that  the Underwriters  may  be
required to make in respect thereof.
 
    The  Company  and  the  Selling  Stockholders  have  been  advised  that the
Underwriters propose initially to  offer the shares of  Class A Common Stock  to
the  public at  the public offering  price set forth  on the cover  page of this
Prospectus and to certain selected dealers (who may include the Underwriters) at
such public offering price less a concession not to exceed $      per share. The
selected dealers may reallow a concession to certain other dealers not to exceed
$      per share. After  the offering to the public, the public offering  price,
the  concession to selected dealers and the  reallowance to other dealers may be
changed by the Underwriters.
 
    The Company has  granted to  the Underwriters an  option to  purchase up  to
604,125  additional shares of Class A Common  Stock at the public offering price
less the underwriting discounts and commissions  set forth on the cover page  of
this  Prospectus, solely  to cover over-allotments,  if any. Such  option may be
exercised at any time until  30 days after the date  of this Prospectus. If  the
Underwriters  exercise such option, each of  the Underwriters will be committed,
subject to  certain  conditions,  to  purchase a  number  of  additional  shares
proportionate  to  such Underwriter's  initial  commitment as  indicated  in the
preceding table.
 
    The Company has agreed that  during the period of 90  days from the date  of
this  Prospectus, it  will not, without  prior written consent  of Bear Stearns,
issue, sell, offer or  agree to sell,  grant any option for  the sale of  (other
than  employee stock options to purchase up  to 75,000 shares of common stock to
be granted  pursuant to  the  Company's Stock  Option  Plan provided  that  such
options  will not  become exercisable during  such 90 day  period), or otherwise
dispose  of,  directly  or  indirectly,  any  common  stock  or  any  securities
substantially  similar to the  common stock or  any securities convertible into,
exercisable for or  exchangeable for  common stock  or securities  substantially
similar  to  the common  stock,  otherwise than  in  this offering  or  upon the
exercise of presently outstanding stock options; provided, however, that  during
such  period the Company may issue up  to 100,000 shares of unregistered Class A
Common Stock in connection with  the consummation of acquisitions provided  that
it  gives  prior  written notice  of  any  such issuances  to  Bear  Stearns. In
addition, pursuant  to an  agreement with  the Underwriters,  Darwin Deason  and
First  Nationwide have agreed  not to sell  any of their  shares of common stock
(other than  the shares  offered hereby)  until September  22, 1996.  See  "Risk
Factors -- Shares Eligible for Future Sale."
 
    Certain  of the  Underwriters that  currently act  as market  makers for the
Company's common stock engage in "passive  market making" in such securities  on
Nasdaq  in  accordance with  Rule  10b-6A under  the  Exchange Act.  Rule 10b-6A
permits, upon the satisfaction of  certain conditions, underwriters and  selling
group members participating in a distribution that are also Nasdaq market makers
in  the  security being  distributed to  engage  in limited  market transactions
during the period when Rule 10b-6 under the Exchange
 
                                       42
<PAGE>
Act would otherwise prohibit such  activity. Rule 10b-6A prohibits  underwriters
and  selling  group  members engaged  in  passive market  making  generally from
entering a bid or effecting a purchase  at a price that exceeds the highest  bid
for  those  securities  displayed  on  Nasdaq by  a  market  maker  that  is not
participating in  the  distribution.  Under Rule  10b-6A,  each  underwriter  or
selling  group member engaged in passive market making is subject to a daily net
purchase limitation equal to 30% of  such entity's average daily trading  volume
during  the two full consecutive calendar  months immediately preceding the date
of the filing of the registration statement under the Securities Act  pertaining
to the security to be distributed.
 
    Certain  Underwriters  (including the  Representatives) or  their affiliates
provide the Company with investment banking services from time to time for which
they receive  customary compensation.  Donaldson, Lufkin  & Jenrette  Securities
Corporation has acted as financial adviser to the Company in connection with the
Acquisition.

Underwriters by Thompson &  Knight, P.C., Dallas,  Texas, which firm  represents

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Affiliated Computer Services, Inc.
 
In  our opinion,  the accompanying consolidated  balance sheets  and the related
consolidated  statements  of  operations,  of  cash  flows  and  of  changes  in
stockholders'  equity, present fairly,  in all material  respects, the financial
position of Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries at June  30,
1994  and 1995 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each
of the  three years  in  the period  ended June  30,  1995, in  conformity  with
generally  accepted accounting  principles. These  financial statements  are the
responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express  an
opinion  on these  financial statements  based on  our audits.  We conducted our
audits of  these  statements  in accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards  which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance  about  whether  the  financial   statements  are  free  of   material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the  financial  statements,  assessing   the
accounting  principles  used and  significant estimates  made by  management and
evaluating the overall  financial statement  presentation. We  believe that  our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.  BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    Affiliated  Computer Services, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on June
8, 1988. The  Company and its  subsidiaries are primarily  engaged in  providing
information  processing services.  These services  include outsourcing services,
electronic  funds  transfer  ("EFT")  transaction  processing  services,   image
management services and professional services. The Company also had subsidiaries
engaged  in business forms  distribution, real estate  investment and brokerage,
courier  services,  limousine  services  and  lease  brokerage  services.  These
non-information  processing  businesses  have been  classified  as "discontinued
operations" due to the Spin-Off to  stockholders of such operations on June  30,
1994, as explained in Note 3.
 
    The  consolidated financial statements are comprised  of the accounts of the
Company  and  its  subsidiaries.  All  significant  intercompany  accounts   and
transactions  have been eliminated  in consolidation. The  Company's fiscal year
ends June 30.
 
CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND ATM CASH
 
    Cash and cash  equivalents consist  primarily of  short-term investments  in
commercial  paper  and  securities  purchased  under  agreements  to  resell and
short-term  treasury  bills  issued  by  the  United  States  government.   Such
investments  have an initial maturity of three months or less. At June 30, 1995,
amounts outstanding for  securities purchased  under agreements  to resell  from
Prudential  Securities, Inc. are approximately $16,723,000  with a maturity of 5
days. ATM cash represents cash borrowed  under a revolving credit agreement  for
use in Company-owned automated teller machines ("ATMs").
 
INVENTORY
 
    Inventories  consist primarily of micrographics  supplies and equipment, and
ATM and  computer maintenance  parts, and  are  recorded at  the lower  of  cost
(first-in, first-out) or market (net realizable value).
 
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
    Property  and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method over  the estimated useful lives  of the assets,  which
for  equipment range primarily from  three to seven years  and for buildings and
improvements up to twenty years.
 
PURCHASED COMPUTER SOFTWARE
 
    Purchased computer  software  and  internally  developed  computer  software
purchased through acquisitions are amortized using the straight-line method over
expected  useful lives which range from two  to six years. With respect to costs
incurred to develop software for its information processing services that is not
purchased through acquisitions, the Company's policy is to capitalize such costs
only  after  technological  feasibility   has  been  established.  No   software
development   costs  have   been  capitalized  in   the  accompanying  financial
statements.
 
LONG-TERM INVESTMENTS
 
    Long-term investments consist  of equity investments  and are accounted  for
using  either cost or the equity methods, as determined on a case-by-case basis.
It is the Company's  policy to periodically review  the net realizable value  of
its  long-term investments  through an assessment  of the  recoverability of the
carrying amount of each investment. Each investment is reviewed to determine  if
events  or changes in  circumstances of the issuer  have occurred which indicate
that the recoverability of  the carrying amount may  be uncertain. In the  event
that  an  investment is  found  to be  carried  at an  amount  in excess  of its
recoverable amount,  then  the asset  is  adjusted  for impairment  to  a  level
commensurate with the recoverable amount of the underlying asset.

1.  BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
    Other  intangible assets consist  primarily of customer  contracts which are
recorded at cost and amortized using the straight-line method over the  contract
terms, which range from three to ten years.
 
GOODWILL
 
    Goodwill  represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of
net assets acquired  and is amortized  using the straight-line  method over  the
expected  useful lives which range from ten  to forty years. It is the Company's
policy to periodically review the net realizable value of its intangible assets,
including goodwill, through  an assessment  of the estimated  future cash  flows
related  to such  assets. Each  business unit  to which  these intangible assets
relate is reviewed  to determine whether  future cash flows  over the  remaining
estimated  useful life of the  asset provide for recovery  of the assets. In the
event that assets  are found to  be carried at  amounts which are  in excess  of
estimated  gross future cash flows, then  the intangible assets are adjusted for
impairment to a level commensurate with  a discounted cash flow analysis of  the
underlying  assets. Effective  July 1,  1994, the  Company adopted  Statement of
Financial Accounting  Standards  No.  121, "Accounting  for  the  Impairment  of
Long-Lived  Assets and for Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed  of." The effect of
adoption was not significant.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
    Information processing  revenue  is  recorded  as  services  are  performed.
Revenue  from annual  maintenance contracts  is deferred  and recognized ratably
over the maintenance  period. Image  management services  and supplies  revenues
earned  in excess of related billings are accrued, whereas billings in excess of
revenues earned are deferred until  the related services are provided.  Revenues
earned  from the five largest customers each year together comprise 32%, 30% and
27% of revenues from  continuing operations, respectively,  for the years  ended
June  30, 1993,  1994 and 1995.  Trade accounts receivable  from these customers
aggregated $6,891,000 at June 30, 1994 and $8,646,000 at June 30, 1995.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
    Effective for the year ended June 30, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting  Standards  No. 109,  "Accounting  for Income  Taxes,"  the
cumulative  effect of which was not  material. Deferred income taxes provided in
the accompanying financial  statements are  determined based  on the  difference
between  financial  statement  and tax  bases  of assets  and  liabilities using
enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which such differences are expected
to reverse.
 
INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE
 
    On September 26, 1994, the Company completed an initial public offering (the
"Offering") to sell shares of its Class A common stock. Earnings per common  and
common  equivalent  share are  based on  the weighted  average number  of common
shares outstanding during the period plus common equivalent shares arising  from
stock  options and  warrants, if dilutive.  Stock options  granted with exercise
prices below the  Offering price  during the twelve-month  period preceding  the
initial  filing date of  the Offering have  been included in  the calculation of
common equivalent shares, using the treasury stock method and the Offering price
of $16.00 per share, as  if they were outstanding for  the years ended June  30,
1993 and 1994. Stock options granted and warrants issued more than twelve months
prior to the Offering have been included in the computations, using the treasury
stock  method and the Offering price of $16.00 per share, only when their effect
would be dilutive.
 
    Earnings per common share assuming full dilution reflects the effects  (when
greater  than  3%  dilution) of  common  shares contingently  issuable  upon the
exercise of  options,  warrants  and the  conversion  of  cumulative  redeemable
preferred  stock in  periods in  which such  exercise or  conversion would cause
dilution. The fully diluted per share  computation for the years ended June  30,
1993  and 1994  reflects the effect  of escrowed shares  which were contingently
issuable   to   First   Madison    Bank,   formerly   First   Gibraltar    Bank,

1.  BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
FSB.  Such shares were  escrowed to secure the  Company's obligation to purchase
shares of its stock in connection with  a put right held by First Madison  Bank.
Upon  consummation  of the  Company's Offering,  the put  right and  the related
escrowed shares were canceled.
 
2.  NON-RENEWAL OF LARGEST CUSTOMER CONTRACT
    The Company's  largest  customer, Bank  of  America  Texas, N.A.  ("B  of  A
Texas"),  informed  the Company  that  it would  not  renew its  data processing
services agreement with the Company  at the end of  the contract term on  August
31, 1995. Revenues earned from B of A Texas and its predecessor, First Gibraltar
Bank,  FSB ("FGB"), were $28.3 million, $37.2  million and $35.1 million for the
fiscal years ended June 30, 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively. Expenses directly
related to services provided to this customer, excluding any allocable  expenses
of  the  Company's fixed  costs  for such  items  as shared  computing, customer
support functions, occupancy and selling, general and administrative, were  $7.0
million, $9.5 million and $7.4 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1993,
1994  and 1995,  respectively. Pursuant  to terms  of the  contract with  B of A
Texas, the Company  will continue to  receive minimum monthly  revenues of  $2.2
million  through August 31, 1995. In addition, management has implemented a cost
savings plan designed to eliminate  certain indirect operating costs  associated
with servicing the B of A Texas contract.
 
    In  conjunction with the contract expiration,  the Company expected to incur
various non-recurring  expenses primarily  associated  with the  termination  or
renegotiation  of a computer lease. Such costs were estimated to aggregate $16.1
million, of which $13.3 million has been  accrued through June 30, 1995. Due  to
the  signing  of a  services contract  with  another customer  in May  1995, the
Company determined that the  computer lease would not  need to be terminated  or
renegotiated,  as  the new  customer will  replace computer  capacity previously
utilized for the B of A Texas contract. Accordingly, the Company determined that
continuing the accrual for the computer lease was no longer necessary.  Services
to  this new  customer have  begun, and  beginning September  1995, the existing
accrual will be amortized over the  remaining term of the computer lease,  which
expires  February 1999.  Of the  $13.3 million  accrued at  June 30,  1995, $3.0
million was  classified as  current  and $10.3  million  as an  other  long-term
liability,  compared  to $4.8  million  accrued at  June  30, 1994  as  an other
long-term liability.
 
3.  REORGANIZATION
    On June 30 and July 5, 1994, the Company completed a series of  transactions
(collectively, the "Reorganization") designed to restructure the Company for the
Offering.  The  transactions  included: (i)  reclassification  of  the Company's
capital stock, (ii) merger of certain of the Company's subsidiaries,  Affiliated
Computer  Services, Inc.  ("Services") and  Dataplex Acquisition  Corp. ("DAC"),
into the Company, including the conversion of the 3.5% minority interest  shares
of  DAC  into  Class  A  common stock  of  the  Company,  (iii)  contribution of
Affiliated Computer Systems  Funding Corporation, a  wholly owned subsidiary  of
the  Company,  to Precept  Business Products,  Inc. ("Precept"),  another wholly
owned subsidiary, (iv) the Spin-Off of Precept to the Company's stockholders  on
a pro rata basis (the "Spin-Off"), and (v) the change of the Company's name from
ACS  Investors,  Inc. to  Affiliated Computer  Services,  Inc. The  then current
holders of the Company's Class  A, B and C  common shares elected to  reclassify
each  of their shares into  14.69735071 shares (rounded up  to the nearest whole
share) of the Company's newly-created Class A or B shares. Class A  stockholders
are  entitled to one vote per share on all matters referred to stockholders, and
Class B stockholders are  entitled to ten  votes per share.  Class B shares  are
convertible  into  Class  A  shares,  but  until  converted,  carry  significant
restrictions with regard to transfer  rights. The Company authorized  22,000,000
common  shares, consisting  of 17,195,742  Class A  common shares  and 4,804,258
Class  B  common  shares,  of  which  5,595,245  shares  and  4,804,258  shares,
respectively,  were outstanding prior to the Offering.  The Class A and B common
shares have a par value of $0.01 per  share. All share and per share amounts  in
the  accompanying financial statements have been  adjusted to give effect to the
Reorganization.

3.  REORGANIZATION (CONTINUED)
    In connection  with  the mergers  of  Services  and DAC  into  the  Company,
outstanding  options  of  these  subsidiaries  were  converted  into  options to
purchase Class A common shares of the Company at respective conversion ratios of
10.7855213  and  0.67573477  (rounded  up  to  the  nearest  whole  share).  The
conversion  ratios of employee  stock options were  based on an  opinion from an
independent valuation  company  and  did  not result  in  any  increase  in  the
intrinsic  value of the option, reduction in the ratio of the exercise price per
share to the market value per share or changes in vesting provisions. Therefore,
in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Emerging Issues Task
Force Issue No. 90-9, the Company did  not record any compensation expense as  a
result  of such conversions. In addition  to the stock options, each outstanding
share of  DAC's  common  stock  not  owned by  the  Company  was  exchanged  for
0.67573477 shares (rounded up to the nearest whole share) of the Company's Class
A common stock.
 
    The  distribution of Precept's stock was  structured to qualify for tax-free
treatment under the  Internal Revenue Code  of 1986, and  is subject to  certain
conditions.  The  businesses distributed  consist of  various lines  of business
unrelated to information processing and have been accounted for as  discontinued
operations  in  the  consolidated  statements of  operations  (see  Note  4). In
connection with the Spin-Off, the  Company agreed to indemnify its  stockholders
against  taxes which  might be  assessed if  the Spin-Off  fails to  qualify for
tax-free treatment. The Company's aggregate indemnification liability is limited
to $5 million.
 
4.  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
    Precept's operations are comprised of business support activities, including
business forms  distribution,  real  estate investment  and  brokerage,  courier
services,  and  various  other  lines of  business  unrelated  to  the Company's
information processing business. Summary financial results for the  discontinued
operations prior to the Spin-Off were as follows (in thousands):

</TABLE>
 
    Of the acquisitions during fiscal year 1995, the Company financed a  portion
of  the  aggregate  purchase  price  through the  issuance  of  $3.3  million of
seller-financed notes and 78,000 shares (65,000 shares of which are not issuable
until February 1996) of unregistered Class  A common stock. Of the  acquisitions
during  fiscal year 1993, $1.2 million of seller-financed notes were issued. All
acquisitions during  fiscal years  1993  and 1995  have  been accounted  for  as
purchases,  all of which resulted in amounts allocated to goodwill with assigned
lives ranging  from 10  years to  40 years.  The results  of operations  of  the
acquired   businesses  have  been  included  in  the  accompanying  consolidated
statements of  operations from  the respective  acquisition dates.  Included  in
results  of  operations  for  the  year  ended June  30,  1995  is  a  charge to
depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $1.1 million representing
the write-off of software research and development costs purchased in two of the
acquisitions.
 
    In December 1992,  the Company  purchased 64.5%  of the  Series B  preferred
stock  and 58.3% of the outstanding common  stock of DAC, bringing the Company's
total investment in the outstanding common stock of DAC to 96.5%. As a result of
this step acquisition, the Company  has consolidated the financial position  and
results  of operations of DAC since that date. The 3.5% minority interest in DAC
was converted into Class A common stock of the Company on July 5, 1994 (see Note
3). DAC owns 100% of Dataplex Corporation ("Dataplex"), a full service  provider
of image capture, conversion, storage, protection, and retrieval services.
 
    In  conjunction  with its  acquisitions, the  Company  is obligated  to make
certain contingent  payments  to  former  owners based  on  the  achievement  of
specified  profit levels. As of  June 30, 1995, the  maximum aggregate amount of
these contingent payments is approximately $8.7 million. Any such payments would
result in  a corresponding  increase in  goodwill; however,  no such  contingent
payments have been earned to date.

    In connection with an outsourcing contract signed in March 1994, the Company
acquired  assets with a fair market  value of $3,952,000, including property and
equipment  of  $1,205,000,  and  assumed  liabilities  of  $1,450,000.  The  net
consideration  received of $2,502,000 has been recorded as unearned revenue, and
both the revenue and the depreciation expense are being recognized ratably  over
the three-year term of the outsourcing contract.
 
    In connection with an outsourcing contract signed in March 1995, the Company
acquired  assets with a fair market value of approximately $2,521,000, including
property, equipment  and computer  software of  $2,237,000. Liabilities  assumed
were  $35,000, and  unearned revenue  of $2,486,000  was recorded  which will be
recognized ratably over a three-year period.
 
8.  LONG-TERM INVESTMENTS
    In January 1992, the  Company paid $7,500,000 in  connection with signing  a
long-term  data processing  contract and  the acquisition  of 7,500  shares of a
customer's Class C preferred stock. The amounts allocated to the preferred stock
(included in long-term investments) and the customer contract (included in other
intangible assets),  based  on an  independent  appraisal, were  $3,220,000  and
$4,280,000, respectively, as of the date of purchase. The preferred stock is not
considered  by management to  be a marketable  equity security, and  as such, is
accounted for at cost. The preferred stock accrues quarterly dividends in  years
one  through five of 10%, if paid through in-kind shares, or 9% if paid in cash.
Dividends in years  six through  ten are  payable at 9%  in cash.  The stock  is
required  to be redeemed in four equal amounts during the tenth year of the data
processing contract. Through June 30,  1995, the customer's quarterly  dividends
have been paid in-kind with additional shares of preferred stock.

    Interest  expense  of  $3,196,000, $5,864,000  and  $4,449,000  was incurred
during the years ended June 30, 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively. Cash payments
for interest for the years ended June  30, 1993, 1994 and 1995 were  $2,620,000,
$4,823,000   and  $3,040,000,  respectively.  Interest  income  was  $1,458,000,
$1,935,000 and $2,260,000  for the  years ended June  30, 1993,  1994 and  1995,
respectively.
 
    At  June 30, 1995, the Company had outstanding letters of credit aggregating
approximately $9,843,000, which are  being maintained primarily for  performance
on  contracts and  as collateral  for an appeal  bond related  to an outstanding
judgment (see Note 17).
 
    In December 1994,  the Company entered  into a cash  custody agreement  with
First  Interstate Bank  ("FIB"), as amended  August 1995.  The agreement expires
July 31, 1997 and provides the Company  with up to $50,000,000 of the  financial
institution's  vault cash for  use in Company-owned ATMs  located in Texas. This
agreement replaces a similar facility with B of A Texas which expires August 31,
1995. At  June 30,  1995, approximately  $9,700,000  was in  use under  the  FIB
agreement and $32,800,000 under the B of A Texas agreement. The cash is owned by
the  financial  institutions  and  consequently not  recorded  on  the Company's
accompanying balance sheet.

LIBOR........................................................       6.1%
Overnight rate -- revolving ATM credit agreement.............       6.6%
Prime........................................................       9.0%
</TABLE>
 
    (B) The secured revolving credit agreements contain covenants which  require
       that  the Company and a certain  subsidiary comply with certain negative,
       affirmative, and financial covenants customary  in notes of this  nature.
       The  secured $90,000,000 revolving credit  agreement is collateralized by
       the stock  of all  subsidiaries and  the Company's  accounts  receivable,
       inventory  and  equipment.  The agreements  contain,  among  other items,
       restrictive covenants relating  to the current  ratio, minimum net  worth
       and fixed charge ratio, and limit payment of dividends, additional loans,
       guarantees  and  investments by  the  Company and  its  subsidiaries. The
       agreements also have  provisions which would  permit acceleration of  the
       maturity of the borrowings after the occurrence of certain defined events
       of default.
 
    (C)  In January 1994,  DAC issued 10% junior  subordinated debentures in the
       principal amount of $6,344,000 in exchange for all outstanding shares  of
       12%  cumulative  Series A  preferred stock  with equal  redemption value.
       Interest on the debentures is payable semiannually in cash, or by issuing
       additional debentures  (this  option  expired  June  1995).  The  Company
       elected  to pay interest for  the six months ended  June 30, 1994 and for
       the year ended June  30, 1995 by issuing  additional debentures on a  pro
       rata  basis such  that the aggregate  principal amount  of the additional
       exchange

9.  LONG-TERM DEBT (CONTINUED)
       debentures issued,  $317,000  and  $681,000,  respectively,  equaled  the
       amount  of the interest  payment if payments  had been made  in cash. The
       debentures are redeemable at their  face amount, plus accrued and  unpaid
       interest, at the option of the Company.
 
    (D)  In  connection  with a  data  processing services  agreement  signed in
       September 1992, the Company  purchased certain data processing  equipment
       from  a customer in exchange for  a $4,437,000 ten-year note payable. The
       fair market value of  the data processing equipment  was estimated to  be
       $1,260,000,  based  on an  independent  estimate, of  which  $596,000 was
       subsequently sold by the Company. The remaining amount of $3,177,000  has
       been allocated to other intangible assets and is being amortized over the
       term of the data processing contract.
 
    (E)  The Company's $3,500,000 note payable to a corporation is an obligation
       of ACS Government Services, Inc. ("ACSGS"), a subsidiary of the  Company.
       The  corporation  has recourse  only to  ACSGS.  ACSGS has  ceased making
       payments under the  note, and ACSGS  and the corporation  are in  dispute
       over  whether the  current outstanding balance  of the note  is owed. The
       note is secured by certain software  developed by ACSGS, a copy of  which
       has  been  given  to  the corporation.  Costs  incurred  to  develop this
       software have been  expensed and,  accordingly, the  collateral does  not
       relate  to recorded  assets of  the Company  at June  30, 1995.  The note
       balance is fully recorded as a current liability at June 30, 1995 due  to
       the uncertainty regarding the final outcome of this matter.
 
    (F)  In connection with a data processing agreement signed in June 1990 with
       International Telecharge,  Inc. ("ITI"),  the Company  purchased  certain
       software  from ITI for  $3,977,000. This purchase  was financed through a
       ten-year  promissory  note  with  the  customer  at  a  face  amount   of
       $5,000,000,  but discounted to $3,977,000 due to the non-interest-bearing
       nature of the note  for the first two  years. Beginning in January  1992,
       ITI  ceased  payments for  services  provided under  the  data processing
       contract. In February  1992, the  Company became  involved in  litigation
       with  ITI following a change  in ownership of ITI  and termination of the
       Company's outsourcing  contract with  ITI. The  Company entered  into  an
       agreement,  effective  March 31,  1995,  with Oncor  Communications, Inc.
       ("OCI") (formerly known  as ITI)  to settle the  litigation initiated  in
       1992.  In  exchange  for certain  payments  by  OCI to  the  Company, the
       dismissal of all  claims against the  Company and the  settlement of  the
       note   payable  by  the  Company,  the  Company  agreed  to  dismiss  all
       counterclaims it had  alleged against  OCI and OCI's  Chairman and  Chief
       Executive Officer.

10. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)
    At June  30, 1995,  the  Company had  available  unused net  operating  loss
carryforwards  ("NOLs")  of approximately  $237,000 which  expire in  years 1999
through 2002.  The NOLs  are  subject to  the  limitations imposed  by  Internal
Revenue  Code Section  382, which  limits the Company's  ability to  use the tax
benefit arising from the  operations of any of  its subsidiaries prior to  their
acquisition  by the Company.  The net operating  losses are stated  net of their
valuation reserve  due  to  Section  382  limitations  which  will  prevent  any
additional  utilization and are included in  the long-term deferred tax account.
The utilization of prior  NOLs and other built-in  tax deductions from  acquired
companies  have reduced goodwill by $0, $214,000 and $0 for the years ended June
30, 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.
 
    At June 30, 1995, the Company  had a total unused capital loss  carryforward
of  approximately  $4,904,000, which  will expire  in 1998.  Due to  Section 382
limitations, a maximum of approximately $842,000  of the total loss is  eligible
for  use before expiration of the carryforward period. The loss carryforward has
been fully reserved due to capital loss restrictions.
 
    The Company's deferred tax assets and (liabilities) consist of the following

    The valuation  allowance at  June 30,  1995 exists  principally due  to  tax
benefits  of acquired corporations  for which realization  of any future benefit
would be uncertain due to Section  382 limitations. The valuation allowance  for
deferred  tax assets decreased by $190,000 during  the year ended June 30, 1994.
The decrease relates to improvements in the facts and circumstances with respect
to the realization  of future tax  benefits of certain  investments which  cause
such realizations to be more likely than not.
 
    Income  tax  expense  from  continuing  operations  varies  from  the amount
computed by applying  the statutory  federal income  tax rate  to income  before
income taxes. The reasons for this difference are as follows (in thousands):

10. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)
    Federal  and state income tax payments during the years ended June 30, 1993,
1994 and 1995 were $10,617,000, $11,782,000 and $15,697,000, respectively.
 
11. CUMULATIVE REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK
    A former  subsidiary of  the  Company, which  was subsequently  merged  into
Services,  issued, in connection  with an acquisition on  January 1, 1989, 1,000
shares of cumulative preferred stock with a  par value of $1 and a  subscription
value  of $1,100  per share  (1,000 shares  authorized). In  connection with the
merger of  the former  subsidiary  into Services,  the  stock was  canceled  and
reissued  in the name of Services. The  issue is redeemable through January 1999
at the subscription value plus accrued  and unpaid dividends, and is subject  to
mandatory  redemption in  January 1999.  Cumulative dividends  began accruing in
January 1992 at a  rate of 8%  per annum and are  paid quarterly. When  Services
merged  with the Company in the Reorganization (see Note 3), the preferred stock
of Services was  exchanged for Series  A preferred stock  of the Company  (1,000
shares  authorized). The preferred stock exchanged carries similar terms, except
that the newly issued preferred stock has a dividend rate of 9%, a sinking  fund
requirement  for quarterly  deposits through June  30, 1999, a  right to convert
such shares into Class  A common stock  (36,066 shares using  the June 30,  1995
market  price) after July 15, 1996 based on  the closing price of Class A common
stock ten days after notice of conversion,  and a right to cause the Company  to
register  such shares of Class  A common stock for  public sale between July 15,
1996 and September 15, 1996.
 
12. COMMON STOCK
    As of  June  30,  1995  and reflecting  changes  to  the  Company's  capital
structure due to the Offering and the Reorganization (see Note 3), the Company's
combined Class A and Class B stock consisted of 22,000,000 shares authorized, of
which  17,195,742 were Class A  common shares and 4,804,258  were Class B common
shares.  As  of  June   30,  1995,  8,487,598   shares  and  4,804,258   shares,
respectively,  were  outstanding, each  with  a par  value  of $0.01  per share.
Effective July 3, 1995, one  of the holders of Class  B common stock elected  to
convert  1,601,415 shares of Class B common stock  to the same number of Class A
shares. Class  B  shares,  which  are  entitled to  ten  votes  per  share,  are
convertible,  at the holder's  option, into Class A  shares, but until converted
carry significant transfer restrictions.
 
    Proceeds from the  Company's Offering  totalled $32.2 million,  net of  $4.6
million of Offering costs ($1.1 million of which were prepaid in fiscal 1994).
 
    In  connection with an acquisition in  January 1995, the Company is required
to issue 65,000 shares of Class A  common stock in February 1996 to the  sellers
(see Note 5).
 
    In  January 1989, the Company issued warrants to purchase 396,594 additional
shares  of  Class   A  common  stock   (the  number  of   shares  reflects   the
Reorganization)  to a data processing customer.  The warrants are exercisable at
an aggregate price of $4,700,000 plus $230,000 for each year that elapses  after
December  31,  1988, plus  interest  at 10%  per annum.  At  June 30,  1995, the
exercise price was $26.73  per share. Beginning in  January 1996, shares may  be
purchased  in increments  through January  1999, the  date on  which the warrant
agreement expires.
 
13. STOCK OPTION PLANS
    Effective  September  2,  1988,  the  Company  established  a   nonqualified
compensatory  stock  option plan  for  certain of  its  employees. The  plan was
amended and restated on May  24, 1994. Under the  amended plan, the Company  has
reserved 1,850,000 shares of Class A common stock (as adjusted to give effect to
the Reorganization) for awards to employees at exercise prices determined by the
Board  of Directors of the  Company. Options generally vest  over five years and
are exercisable over  a five  to ten  year period from  the date  of the  grant.
Options  expire the earlier of  ten years from the date  of grant or three years
after an initial public offering.

13. STOCK OPTION PLANS (CONTINUED)
    The Company recognized $680,000 of  compensation expense for the year  ended
June  30, 1995,  primarily from  the issuance  of stock  options to  certain key
employees where the  option exercise  price was below  the market  price of  the
Company's  Class A common stock on the day prior to issuance. For the year ended
June 30, 1994, the Company recognized $750,000 of compensation expense  relating
to  stock option grants and  a repricing of certain  existing stock options. The
amount of  the expense  was determined  based upon  the difference  between  the
granted and repriced option exercise prices and the fair value of the underlying
stock at the time.
 
    As  described  in  Note 3,  outstanding  options  of Services  and  DAC were
converted to options to purchase stock of  the Company upon the merger of  those
subsidiaries  into the  Company. Therefore,  these options  are included  in the
following presentation  on an  "as converted"  basis. Prior  to the  conversion,
Services  had  approximately  81,000 options  outstanding  with  exercise prices
ranging from $.02 to $102.71 per share and DAC had approximately 72,000  options
outstanding  with  exercise prices  ranging  from $.10  to  $1.85 per  share. In
general, the Services and DAC options  vested over five years, were  exercisable
over  ten years from  the date of grant  and expired ten years  from the date of
grant.

14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
    As  of June 30,  1994 and 1995,  the fair values  of the Company's revolving
credit balances and other variable-rate debt instruments approximate the related
carrying  values.  The  fair  values  of  the  Company's  fixed-rate  debt  also
approximate  the  related carrying  values,  as determined  based  upon relative
changes in  the  Company's  variable borrowing  rates,  whether  the  borrowings
occurred recently or if the borrowings were repaid after the fiscal year ended.
 
    The  fair value  of the cumulative  redeemable preferred stock  is deemed to
approximate book value as  it is the  Company's intent to  redeem this over  the
next year.
 
15. PROFIT SHARING PLAN
    The  Company has  adopted a  401(k) plan,  as defined  by the  United States
Internal Revenue  Code,  whereby participants  may  contribute a  percentage  of
compensation. The plan provides for a discretionary matching contribution by the
Company  as determined  by the Board  of Directors. There  were no contributions
made by the Company to the plan during  the years ended June 30, 1993, 1994  and
1995.

16. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
    In  the  ordinary course  of business,  the Company  provides services  to a
corporation which is a stockholder and  warrant holder of Class A common  stock.
Revenues  earned from this stockholder were 6%,  4% and 3% of total revenues for
the years ended June  30, 1993, 1994 and  1995, respectively. Trade  receivables
from  this stockholder aggregated $1,652,000 and $1,726,000 at June 30, 1994 and
1995, respectively.
 
    In March  1994,  the  Company paid  $4,900  to  acquire a  49%  interest  in
TransFirst,  Inc. ("TransFirst"),  a minority-owned provider  of data processing
and electronic benefits services for state and local governments.  Concurrently,
the Company sold TransFirst two existing service contracts in exchange for notes
receivable  totaling $2,200,000. The notes bear  interest at a bank's prime rate
and are due in a lump-sum payment in February 2004. The Company accounts for its
investment on the  equity method. Equity  earnings for the  year ended June  30,
1995 and for the period from March 1994 to June 1994 were not significant.
 
17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

    Lease expense for data processing equipment and facilities was  $24,041,000,
$32,903,000  and $36,894,000 for the  years ended June 30,  1993, 1994 and 1995,
respectively.
 
    In December 1992, a judgment was  rendered against the Company, jointly  and
severally   with  certain  other   affiliated  defendants,  in   the  amount  of
approximately $6,500,000. The Company has posted  an appeal bond for the  amount
of  the judgment plus  required post judgment  interest (see Note  9). In fiscal
1993 and 1995, the Company recorded  a charge in "Other operating expenses"  for
an  amount which it  believes is adequate  to sustain any  loss in settlement of
this matter. The reserve is included in "Other accrued liabilities." The Company
intends to vigorously pursue its appeal of the judgment, which is pending before
the Texas Court of Appeals.
 
    The Company  is  subject to  certain  other legal  proceedings,  claims  and
disputes  which  arise in  the  ordinary course  of  its business.  Although the
Company cannot predict the  outcomes of these  legal proceedings, the  Company's
management does not believe these actions will have a material adverse effect on
the  Company's financial position, results  of operations or liquidity. However,
if unfavorably resolved, these proceedings could have a material adverse  effect
on the Company's financial position, results of operations and liquidity.

              AFFILIATED COMPUTER SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
          NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION
    The  consolidated financial  statements include  the accounts  of Affiliated
Computer Services, Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiaries (the "Company"). All
material intercompany profits, transactions  and balances have been  eliminated.
The  Company is primarily engaged  in providing information processing services.
These services include outsourcing  services, professional services,  electronic
funds transfer transaction processing services and image management services.
 
    The  financial information presented should be  read in conjunction with the
Company's annual consolidated financial statements  for the year ended June  30,
1995.  The  foregoing unaudited  consolidated  financial statements  reflect all
adjustments (all of which are  of a normal recurring  nature) which are, in  the
opinion  of management, necessary for a fair  presentation of the results of the
interim periods. The results for interim periods are not necessarily  indicative
of results to be expected for the year.
 
    In  October  1995,  Statement  of Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 123,
"Accounting  for  Stock-based  Compensation"  ("SFAS  123"),  was  issued.  This
statement  requires  the  fair  value of  stock  options  and  other stock-based
compensation issued to employees to  either be included as compensation  expense
in  the income statement, or the pro forma effect on net income and earnings per
share of  such compensation  expense to  be disclosed  in the  footnotes to  the
Company's  financial statements commencing with  the Company's 1997 fiscal year.
The Company expects  to adopt  SFAS 123  on a  disclosure basis  only. As  such,
implementation  of SFAS 123 is not expected to impact the Company's consolidated
balance sheet or income statement.
 
2.  NON-RENEWAL OF LARGEST CUSTOMER CONTRACT
    On August 31, 1995, the Company's  contract with its largest customer,  Bank
of America Texas, N.A. ("B of A Texas"), expired pursuant to its terms. Revenues
earned  from  B  of A  Texas  for the  nine  months  ended March  31,  1995 were
approximately $27.6 million compared to revenues for the nine months ended March
31, 1996 of  $4.6 million. In  anticipation of the  expiration of the  contract,
management  of the Company  completed a cost savings  plan implemented to reduce
direct expenses associated with this contract and other indirect  infrastructure
costs of the Company.
 
    In  conjunction with the contract expiration,  the Company expected to incur
various non-recurring  expenses primarily  associated  with the  termination  or
renegotiation  of a computer lease. Such costs were estimated to aggregate $16.1
million, of which $13.3 million had been  accrued through June 30, 1995. Due  to
the  signing  of a  services contract  with  another customer  in May  1995, the
Company determined that the  computer lease would not  need to be terminated  or
renegotiated,  as the  new customer  would replace  computer capacity previously
utilized for the B of A Texas contract. Accordingly, the Company determined that
continuing the accrual for the computer  lease was no longer necessary, and,  in
September  1995, began to  amortize the accrual  over the remaining  term of the
computer lease, which  expires February 1999,  at a rate  of approximately  $1.0
million  per quarter (resulting in  a $2.2 million reduction  to rent, lease and
maintenance expense for  the nine  months ended March  31, 1996  as compared  to
expense of $7.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 1995).
 
3.  ACQUISITIONS
    During  the  first  nine  months  of fiscal  1996,  the  Company  closed six
acquisitions, none of  which were individually  significant. A summarization  of
the acquisitions is as follows (in millions):

4.  SECONDARY OFFERING
    On March 29, 1996, the Company completed a secondary offering of 1.8 million
shares  of Class A common stock. Proceeds  received from the offering during the
quarter were $68.3 million,  net of underwriters'  discounts and other  offering
expenses  paid  of  $3.7 million.  An  additional  0.3 million  shares  from the
exercise of the over-allotment option of the offering were issued in April  1996
and  resulted  in  net proceeds  of  approximately  $10 million,  which  will be
recorded in the  fourth quarter of  this fiscal year.  Proceeds of the  offering
were  used for the  repayment of Company indebtedness  and for general corporate
purposes.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
 
To The Genix Group, Inc.:
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of
The  Genix Group, Inc.  and subsidiaries ("Genix")  as of December  31, 1994 and
1995, and the  related consolidated statements  of income, shareholder's  equity
and  cash flows  for each of  the three years  in the period  ended December 31,
1995. These financial statements are  the responsibility of Genix's  management.
Our  responsibility is  to express  an opinion  on these  consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.
 
We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted   auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence  supporting
the  amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles used  and  significant estimates  made  by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Genix as of December
31, 1994 and 1995, and the results of their operations and their cash flows  for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
a.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    The  accompanying  consolidated  financial   statements  were  prepared   in
conformity  with generally  accepted accounting  principles. In  connection with
their preparation, management  was required  to make  estimates and  assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
b.  PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
    The  consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Genix and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant  intercompany transactions have  been
eliminated.  Certain  reclassifications  have  been  made  to  the  prior  years
statements to conform with the 1995 presentation.
 
c.  DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
 
    Property, plant  and  equipment and  intangible  assets are  depreciated  or
amortized  using the  straight-line method  over the  following estimated useful
lives:
 
<TABLE>

</TABLE>
 
    During 1995,  Genix fully  amortized the  noncompete covenant  which it  had
originally recorded in 1990.
 
d.  SOFTWARE COSTS
 
    The  cost of  specialized software  acquired to  support a  customer under a
service contract is capitalized to  better match expenses with revenues  earned.
Amortization  is provided  using the straight-line  method over the  term of the
related customer contract which ranges from 1 to 5 years.
 
e.  MIGRATION COSTS
 
    Genix defers  certain  contract  costs  relating to  the  migration  of  new
customers   into  its   data  centers.   Amortization  is   provided  using  the
straight-line method over the term of the related customer contract which ranges
from 1 to 7 years.
 
f.  STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS
 
    For  purposes  of  this  statement,   Genix  considers  all  highly   liquid
investments  purchased  with a  maturity  of three  months  or less  to  be cash
equivalents.

    Maintenance  and repairs are  charged to operating  expense; major additions
and improvements are  capitalized. The  amount of  accumulated amortization  for
capitalized   software  at  December  31,  1994  and  1995  was  $2,582,000  and
$3,345,000, respectively. Capitalized software amortized for 1993, 1994 and 1995
was $790,000, $885,000 and $1,013,000, respectively.
 
4.  LEASING ARRANGEMENTS
    Genix  leases  a   data  center   and  computer   equipment  under   several
noncancellable  lease  arrangements  expiring  on  various  dates  through 2010.
Certain leases provide that Genix pay taxes, maintenance and insurance costs  on
the leased equipment.
 
    In  1995, Genix renegotiated  various capital lease  agreements resulting in
their classification as operating  leases. At December  31, 1995, capital  lease
obligations were not significant. Future annual minimum rental payments required
under  noncancelable operating  leases at December  31, 1995 are  as follows (in
thousands):

5.  COMMITMENTS
    Genix has entered into long-term  contracts through 2004 to obtain  software
licensing  rights  for both  internal use  and  for the  support of  client data
processing. Provisions under  one such contract  limit the use  for clients  for
which  the software can be used through  March 31, 1996. Under these agreements,
Genix  is  required  to  make   minimum  annual  payments  through  2004   which
cumulatively   total  $45,150,000.  Additionally,  Genix  is  required  to  make
contingent payments beginning in 1997 to the extent computer operating  revenues
exceed a base amount of $89,000,000. The contingent payment ranges from 4.37% to
6.25% of annual revenues in excess of the base amount. The expense recognized in
connection  with these agreements for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995
totaled $500,000 and $1,951,000, respectively.

6.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
a.  NOTES RECEIVABLE/PAYABLE AND RELATED INTEREST
 
    Genix is  a  participant  in  an  intercompany  credit  agreement  with  MCN
Investment  whereby Genix can  borrow needed cash from,  and loan available cash
to, MCN  Investment.  During  1995,  the agreement  was  amended  to  allow  for
increased  Genix borrowings  of up  to $10,000,000  at MCN  Investment's average
daily borrowing  rate.  No amounts  had  been loaned  to  MCN Investment  as  of
December  31,  1995. Notes  receivable of  $4,129,000 at  December 31,  1994 are
classified as cash  equivalents. Borrowings outstanding  under the  intercompany
credit   agreement  at  December  31,  1994  and  1995  totaled  $1,007,000  and
$9,385,000,  respectively,  and  were  at  interest  rates  of  8.5%  and  6.0%,
respectively.
 
    Genix  also has a term loan with MCN Investment that matures on December 31,
1996. The term loan was amended during 1995 to reduce the interest rate and  the
level of allowed borrowing to $20,000,000. Borrowings outstanding under the term
loan  at  December  31,  1994  and  1995  totaled  $21,000,000  and $20,000,000,
respectively, and were at interest rates of 8.0% and 6.5%, respectively.
 
b.  ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND RELATED REVENUE
 
    Genix has a computer services  agreement with MCN and Michigan  Consolidated
Gas  Company (MichCon, a wholly-owned subsidiary of MCN), whereby Genix provides
certain data  processing  and related  services.  Services to  these  affiliates
accounted  for $15,340,000  (21%), $15,877,000  (18%), and  $15,260,000 (15%) of
total operating revenues for the years  ended December 31, 1993, 1994 and  1995,
respectively.
 
c.  ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND RELATED EXPENSE
 
    Under  a service agreement  with MCN and  affiliates, Genix receives various
services, including tax, financial and legal services. Total billings for  these
services  for the  years ended  December 31, 1993,  1994 and  1995 were $96,000,
$146,000 and $70,000, respectively.
 
7.  FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
    Genix has estimated the fair value of its financial instruments,  consisting
of  notes  payable to  MCN Investment,  using  available market  information and
appropriate valuation  methodologies.  As of  December  31, 1995,  the  carrying
amounts  approximated the  related fair values.  The estimated  fair values were
determined based on interest rates currently available to Genix.
 
8.  RETIREMENT BENEFITS
 
a.  RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN BENEFITS
 
    Genix has  a defined  contribution retirement  savings plan  (savings  plan)
which  provides  for regular  company contributions  based  upon salary  and the
matching of employee contributions up to certain predefined limits. The  savings
plan  covers  substantially all  employees. Total  expense  under this  plan was
$818,000, $1,068,000 and $1,351,000 for the years ended December 31, 1993,  1994
and 1995, respectively.
 
b.  OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
 
    Genix, with other affiliated companies, participates in health care and life
insurance  benefit  plans.  Effective  January  1993,  Genix  discontinued  paid
benefits for its future retirees. Employees closer to retirement meeting certain
age and years of service criteria  were subject to a "grandfather" clause  which
allowed  for partial company  paid health care and  life insurance benefits upon
their retirement. Persons who retired from Genix prior to 1993 will continue  to
receive full company paid health care and life insurance benefits.
 
    Effective  January  1993, Genix  adopted  Statement of  Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS)  No. 106,  "Employers' Accounting  for Postretirement  Benefits
Other  Than  Pensions,"  which  requires  the  use  of  accrual  accounting  for
postretirement benefits.  At  December 31,  1994  and 1995,  Genix'  accumulated

8.  RETIREMENT BENEFITS (CONTINUED)
postretirement  benefit  obligation  of  the plans  amounted  to  $1,153,000 and
$1,310,000, respectively,  including  the  unrecognized  transition  obligation,
which  is being amortized over  20 years. The net  postretirement cost for 1993,
1994 and 1995  was $250,000,  $270,000 and $256,000,  respectively. The  accrued
postretirement  liability recognized at December 31,  1994 and 1995 was $514,000
and $770,000, respectively.
 
9.  MAJOR CUSTOMERS
    During the years ended December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995, Genix had  revenues
from two major customers which accounted for $8,064,000 (11%), $15,176,000 (17%)
and  $23,065,000 (22%) of total operating revenues, respectively. Total revenues
received from these customers  and MichCon (Note  6b) accounted for  $23,404,000
(31%),  $30,857,000 (35%) and $38,139,000 (36%)  of total operating revenues for
the years ended December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.
 
10. SUMMARY OF INCOME TAXES
    Effective January  1, 1993,  Genix  adopted SFAS  No. 109,  "Accounting  for
Income  Taxes,"  which  supersedes SFAS  No.  96. No  cumulative  adjustment was
necessary for  the adoption  of this  standard because  its provisions  are  not
materially  different than those  applied under the  previous standard. Genix is
part of  the consolidated  federal income  tax  return of  MCN. The  income  tax
provision  or benefit  of Genix  is determined  on an  individual company basis.
Genix records  taxes  payable to  or  receivable  from MCN  resulting  from  the
inclusion of its taxable income or loss in the consolidated tax return.

                     THE GENIX GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
          NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION
    The  consolidated  financial statements  include the  accounts of  The Genix
Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries, MCN Computer Services, Inc., Genix Corporation
and The  Genix  Group,  Ltd.  (collectively,  "Genix").  Genix  offers  computer
operations  management, data  processing, network  design and  management, large
scale electronic printing and mailing, and business process solutions  services,
primarily  in  the United  States.  Genix is  a  wholly-owned subsidiary  of MCN
Investment Corporation ("MCN Investment"), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
MCN Corporation.
 
    The financial information presented should  be read in conjunction with  the
Genix  annual consolidated financial statements for  the year ended December 31,
1995.  The  foregoing  unaudited  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements
reflect  all adjustments (all of  which are of a  normal recurring nature) which
are, in the  opinion of  management, necessary for  a fair  presentation of  the
results  of  the  interim  periods.  The results  for  interim  periods  are not
necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.
 
2.  OPERATING LEASE
    In March 1996, Genix entered into a long-term lease agreement to obtain  the
latest  technology  in  computer  processing  equipment.  The  new  equipment is
anticipated to  generate  substantial  savings in  annual  operating  costs  and
contribute  to overall  system efficiency  and reliability.  In conjunction with
entering into this new agreement, Genix terminated existing leases for equipment
that had been used to provide the same functions as the new equipment. The lease
termination resulted in a $2,353,000 non-recurring charge to operations in March
1996.
 
3.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT
    In May 1996, MCN Investment reached  a definitive agreement for the sale  of
Genix  to Affiliated Computer  Services, Inc., a  leading nationwide provider of
information technology services.  MCN Investment expects  the transaction to  be
finalized by the end of June 1996, subject to anti-trust regulatory approval.

       PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)
 
    The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of
March 31, 1996 set forth below presents the financial position of the Company as
if  the  following  transactions  had  occurred  on  March  31,  1996:  (i)  The
consummation of the acquisition of The Genix Group, Inc. ("Genix"); and (ii) the
consummation of this offering,  including the issuance and  sale of two  million
shares  of Common Stock by the Company  and the application of the estimated net
proceeds  to  the   Company  therefrom.  The   unaudited  pro  forma   condensed
consolidated  balance  sheet as  of March  31,  1996 combines,  with appropriate
adjustments, the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as  of
March 31, 1996 and the unaudited consolidated statement of financial position of
Genix as of March 31, 1996.
 
    The  unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for
the nine months ended March 31, 1996 and the year ended June 30, 1995 set  forth
below  present the results of operations of the Company for such period and such
year as if the following transactions had occurred at the beginning of each such
period: (i)  The  consummation  of  the  acquisition  of  Genix;  (ii)  the  six
additional  acquisitions completed during fiscal 1995 and the seven acquisitions
(excluding Genix) completed subsequent to July 1, 1995 (collectively the  "Other
Acquisitions");  and (iii) the consummation  of this offering including issuance
and sale  of  two  million  shares  of Common  Stock  by  the  Company  and  the
application  of  the  estimated  net  proceeds  to  the  Company  therefrom. The
unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the  nine
months  ended  March  31,  1996  combines,  with  appropriate  adjustments,  the
Company's and Genix' unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations  for
the nine months ended March 31, 1996 with the unaudited results of operations of
the Other Acquisitions for the same nine month period to the extent they are not
included  in  the  Company's  results of  operations.  The  unaudited  pro forma
condensed consolidated statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 1995,
combines, with  appropriate  adjustments,  the  Company's  audited  consolidated
results  of operations for  its fiscal year  ended June 30,  1995; the unaudited
consolidated results of operations  for Genix for the  twelve months ended  June
30,  1995; and the unaudited results of operations of the Other Acquisitions for
the twelve months ended June 30, 1995 to the extent they are not included in the
Company's results of operations. Certain reclassifications were made to  conform
the historical financial statements of Genix and the Other Acquisitions with the
Company's historical financial statements.
 
    The  unaudited pro  forma condensed  consolidated financial  statements have
been prepared on  the basis of  preliminary assumptions and  estimates. The  pro
forma  adjustments represent  the Company's preliminary  determinations of these
adjustments and are based on  available information and certain assumptions  the
Company considers reasonable under the circumstances. Final amounts could differ
from  those set  forth herein.  The unaudited  pro forma  consolidated financial
statements may not be  indicative of the results  of operations that would  have
been  achieved if the  acquisition of Genix  and the Other  Acquisitions and the
Offering had been effected on  the dates indicated or  which may be achieved  in
the  future. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company's "Selected  Consolidated
Financial  Data", "Management's  Discussion and Analysis  of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations" and  the annual consolidated financial statements  of
the Company and Genix appearing elsewhere herein.

            NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET
                              AS OF MARCH 31, 1996
 
(A)   Information  obtained  from   the  March  31,   1996  unaudited  condensed
    consolidated statement  of  financial  position of  Genix.  Certain  amounts
    reported  in Genix's historical financial  statements have been reclassified
    to conform  with  the Company's  presentation  in the  Pro  Forma  Condensed
    Consolidated Balance Sheet.
 
(B) Adjusts assets and liabilities to their respective fair values.
 
(C) Reflects goodwill and other intangible assets originating from the Company's
    purchase  of all of the outstanding stock of Genix. Represents a preliminary
    allocation of  the  excess  purchase  price using  the  purchase  method  of
    accounting  for  the transaction  after  adjusting the  assets  acquired and
    liabilities assumed to their respective  fair values. The purchase price  of
    Genix  could  be adjusted  downward  by up  to  $41 million  based  upon the
    occurrence of  certain contingencies,  which  include, among  other  things,
    adjustments  arising  from  changes  in net  assets  acquired,  retention of
    certain large customers for one to two years and tax-related matters.
 
(D) Reflects transaction costs  associated with acquisition  of Genix which  are
    estimated  to be  $1.3 million and  the estimated severance  costs and other
    benefits of approximately $3.5 million which are  to be paid as a result  of
    an immediate reduction in duplicate workforce.
 
(E)  Adjusts for the Company's financing associated with the transaction and the
    extinguishment of intercompany debt owed to the parent of Genix prior to the
    acquisition.
 
(F) Reflects  estimate of  a liability  of  up to  an additional  $32.1  million
    resulting  from the acquisition of Genix. The liability is associated with a
    long-term fixed obligation between Genix and a vendor that was entered  into
    in March 1995. As the obligation relates to duplicate services for which the
    Company  has  already  contracted, the  obligation  is considered  to  be an
    unfavorable commitment, and the present value of the obligation is reflected
    as a  liability. Of  the total  liability of  $32.1 million,  of which  $1.3
    million  was  recorded  by Genix  as  of  March 31,  1996,  $8.4  million is
    reflected as a current  liability. Payments related  to this obligation  are
    payable over the remaining eight years of the contract.
 
(G) Eliminates the equity of Genix.
 
(H)  Reflects an estimate of the net proceeds to be received by the Company from
    this offering of 2,000,000 new shares of the Company's Class A Common  Stock
    at an assumed offering price of $50.50 per share less underwriting discounts
    and  estimated offering expenses. Proceeds received will be used to pay down
    a substantial portion of the bank  debt incurred to finance the  acquisition
    of Genix.

             NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF
              OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996
 
(A)  Information  obtained from  the unaudited  interim financial  statements of
    Genix for the nine months ended March 31, 1996. Certain amounts reported  in
    Genix's  historical financial information have  been reclassified to conform
    with the  Company's presentation  in the  Pro Forma  Condensed  Consolidated
    Statement of Operations.
 
(B)  Reflects the savings  expected as a result  of employee terminations (i.e.,
    salary and related expenses) to  be effected immediately after  consummation
    of the acquisition.
 
(C)  Reflects the reduction  in duplicate expenses related  to software fees for
    which the Company has an existing license.
 
(D) Reflects  the  additional  amortization of  expense  of  approximately  $2.5
    million  resulting from the allocation of the excess cost of the acquisition
    to goodwill after recording  the fair value of  the assets acquired and  the
    liabilities  assumed and the net  reduction in depreciation and amortization
    expense of approximately $.2 million as a result of recording Genix's assets
    at their  respective  fair values  based  on a  preliminary  purchase  price
    allocation.
 
(E)  Reflects  $6.9  million  in  interest  expense  for  the  financing  of the
    transaction based upon the terms of the Company's increase in its  revolving
    line   of  credit  (See  "Use  of  Proceeds"  discussed  elsewhere  in  this
    Prospectus) and a $1.5 million reduction in interest expense on intercompany
    debt owed to the parent of Genix. The intercompany debt was extinguished  in
    connection with the consummation of the acquisition.
 
(F)  Reflects the  income tax  effect for the  pro forma  adjustments at Genix's
    effective tax rate.
 
(G) Other Acquisitions reflects the  aggregate historical results of  operations
    for  the seven acquisitions made by the  Company during the period from July
    1, 1995  through the  date  of this  Prospectus (excluding  Genix).  Certain
    amounts reported in the acquired companies' historical financial information
    have been reclassified to conform with the Company's presentation in the Pro
    Forma  Condensed Consolidated  Statement of  Operations for  the Nine Months
    Ended March 31, 1996.
 
(H) To record the  aggregate pro forma adjustments  from the seven  acquisitions
    made  by  the  Company during  the  period  noted in  (G).  Such adjustments
    represent primarily: (i) net decreases to expenses upon the consolidation of
    the acquired  businesses  operations,  including the  elimination  of  costs
    associated  with  the prior  owners and  overhead  allocations by  the prior
    owners deemed unreasonable or excessive by the Company and not reflective of
    the ongoing operations of the acquired operations, (ii) the net decrease  to
    depreciation  and amortization expense  from the allocation  of the purchase
    price of each  acquisition to  the assets  and liabilities  of the  business
    acquired,  (iii)  the  net  increase  to  interest  expense  reflecting  the
    financing of the  transactions and  minority interest expense  for the  less
    than  100% stock acquisitions,  and (iv) the  related tax effect  of the pro
    forma adjustments.
 
(I) Reflects the reduction  in interest expense,  including related tax  effect,
    for  the financing of the Genix acquisition  upon the application of the net
    proceeds to be received by the  Company from this offering of 2,000,000  new
    shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock at an assumed offering price of
    $50.50  per share less underwriting  discounts and commissions and estimated
    offering expenses.
 
(J) In March 1996, Genix entered into a long-term lease agreement to obtain  the
    latest  technology in  computer processing  equipment. The  new equipment is
    anticipated to generate  substantial savings in  annual operating costs  and
    contribute to overall system efficiency and reliability. In conjunction with
    entering  into  this new  agreement,  Genix terminated  existing  leases for
    equipment that  had been  used to  provide  the same  functions as  the  new
    equipment.  The  lease termination  resulted  in a  $2,353,000 non-recurring
    charge to operations in March 1996.

              AFFILIATED COMPUTER SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
             NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF
                  OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1995
 
(A) Information obtained from  the unaudited financial  statements of Genix  for
    the  twelve months ended June 30,  1995. Certain amounts reported in Genix's
    historical financial information have been reclassified to conform with  the
    Company's  presentation in the Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of
    Operations.
 
(B) Reflects savings expected as a result of employee terminations (i.e., salary
    and related expenses) to be  effected immediately after consummation of  the
    acquisition.
 
(C)  Reflects the reduction  in duplicate expenses related  to software fees for
    which the Company has an existing license.
 
(D) Reflects  the  additional  amortization of  expense  of  approximately  $3.4
    million  resulting from the allocation of the excess cost of the acquisition
    to goodwill after recording  the fair value of  the assets acquired and  the
    liabilities  assumed and the net  reduction in depreciation and amortization
    expense of approximately $0.7 million as  a result of recording the  Genix's
    assets at their respective fair values based on a preliminary purchase price
    allocation.
 
(E)  Reflects  $9.5  million  in  interest  expense  for  the  financing  of the
    transaction based upon the terms of the Company's increase in its  revolving
    line of credit (See "Use of Proceeds" included elsewhere in this Prospectus)
    and  a $1.7 million reduction in  interest expense on intercompany debt owed
    to the parent of Genix. The intercompany debt was extinguished in connection
    with the consummation of the acquisition.
 
(F) Reflects the  income tax  effect for the  pro forma  adjustments at  Genix's
    effective tax rate.
 
(G)  Other Acquisitions reflects the  aggregate historical results of operations
    for the thirteen  acquisitions made by  the Company during  the period  from
    July  1, 1994 through the date of this Prospectus (excluding Genix). Certain
    amounts reported in the acquired companies' historical financial information
    have been reclassified to conform with the Company's presentation in the Pro
    Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations For the Year Ended June
    30, 1995.
 
(H) To record the aggregate pro forma adjustments from the thirteen acquisitions
    made by  the  Company during  the  period  noted in  (G).  Such  adjustments
    represent primarily: (i) net decreases to expenses upon the consolidation of
    the  acquired  businesses' operations,  including  the elimination  of costs
    associated with  the prior  owners  and overhead  allocations by  the  prior
    owners deemed unreasonable or excessive by the Company and not reflective of
    the  ongoing operations of the acquired operations, (ii) the net decrease to
    depreciation and amortization  expense from the  allocation of the  purchase
    price  of each acquisition  to the assets and  liabilities of the businesses
    acquired,  (iii)  the  net  increase  to  interest  expense  reflecting  the
    financing  of the  transactions and minority  interest expense  for the less
    than 100% stock  acquisitions, and (iv)  the related tax  effect of the  pro
    forma adjustments.
 
(I)  Reflects the reduction  in interest expense,  including related tax effect,
    for the financing of the Genix  acquisition upon the application of the  net
    proceeds  to be received by the Company  from this offering of 2,000,000 new
    shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock at an assumed offering price of
    $50.50  per  share  less  underwriting  discounts  and  estimated   offering
    expenses.

ITEM 15.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
    The  Certificate of  Incorporation provides  that the  personal liability of
directors of the Company to the Company or its stockholders is eliminated to the
maximum extent permitted  by Delaware law  for or  with respect to  any acts  of
omissions  in the performance of his or her duties as a director of the Company.
Section 102 of the DGCL permits  directors to be relieved of monetary  liability
for  breach of their fiduciary duty of care, except under certain circumstances,
including breach of  the director's duty  of loyalty, acts  or omissions not  in
good  faith or  involving intentional misconduct  or a knowing  violation of the
law, any transaction from which the director derived improper personal  benefit,
or certain unlawful dividend payments, stock redemptions or repurchases.
 
    The  Certificate of  Incorporation provides,  among other  things, that each
person who is or  was a director or  officer of the Company  (or serving at  the
request  of the  Company as  a director, officer,  employee or  agent of another
entity), will be  indemnified by  the Company to  the full  extent permitted  by
Delaware  law. Under Section 145 of the DGCL, directors, officers, employees and
other individuals  may be  indemnified  against expenses  (including  attorneys'
fees),  judgements,  fines and  amounts paid  in  settlement in  connection with
specified   actions,   suits,   or   proceedings,   whether   civil,   criminal,
administrative  or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the
corporation - a "derivative action") if they acted in good faith and in a manner
they reasonably believed to be  in or not opposed to  the best interests of  the
Company  and,  with  respect  to  any  criminal  action  or  proceeding,  had no
reasonable cause to believe  their conduct was unlawful.  A similar standard  of
care   is  applicable  in  the  case  of  the  derivative  action,  except  that
indemnification only extends to expenses (including attorney's fees) incurred in
connection with  defense  or settlement  of  such  an action  and  Delaware  law
requires  court approval  before there  can be  any indemnification  of expenses
where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the Company.
 
    As authorized by the Certificate of Incorporation, the Company entered  into
indemnification  agreements,  with each  of  its directors  and  officers. These
indemnification agreements provide for, among other things, certain  protections
against  the possibility of  uninsured liability in  addition to the protections
provided by the Certificate of Incorporation.

ITEM 17.  UNDERTAKINGS
 
    The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of  determining
any  liability under the  Securities Act of  1933, each filing  of the Company's
Annual Report  pursuant to  Section 13(a)  or Section  15(d) of  the  Securities
Exchange  Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section  15 (d) of the Securities Exchange  Act
of  1934) that is incorporated by  reference in the Registration Statement shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities  offered
therein,  and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
    Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities  Act
may  be permitted to directors, officers  and controlling persons of the Company
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised
that  in  the   opinion  of   the  Securities  and   Exchange  Commission   such
indemnification  is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore,  unenforceable. In  the event  that a  claim for  indemnification
against  such liabilities  (other than  the payment  by the  Company of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company  in
the  successful defense of any  action, suit or proceeding)  is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities  being
registered,  the Company will, unless  in the opinion of  its counsel the matter
has been settled  by controlling  precedent, submit  to a  court of  appropriate
jurisdiction  the question whether such indemnification  by it is against public
policy as expressed  in the Securities  Act and  will be governed  by the  final
adjudication of such issue.
 
    For  purposes of  determining any  liability under  the Securities  Act, the
information  omitted  from  the  form  of  prospectus  filed  as  part  of  this
Registration  Statement in reliance  upon Rule 430A  and contained in  a form of
prospectus filed by the Company  pursuant to Rule 424(b) (1)  or (4) or 497  (h)
under  the  Securities Act  shall  be deemed  to  be part  of  this Registration
Statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
    For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act,  each
post-effective  amendment that contains a form  of prospectus shall be deemed to
be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,  and
the  offering of such securities at that time  shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof.

for  filing on Form  S-3 and has  duly caused this  Registration Statement to be

          1.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY AND THE SELLING
STOCKHOLDERS.

               (a)  The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the
     several Underwriters that:

               (i)  The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange
          Commission (the "Commission") a registration statement, and may have
          filed an amendment or amendments thereto, on Form S-3 (No. 333-_____),
          for the registration of the Shares under the Securities Act
          of 1933, as amended (the "Act").  Such registration statement,
          including all documents incorporated by reference therein, the
          prospectus, financial statements and schedules, exhibits and all other
          documents filed as a part thereof, as amended at the time of
          effectiveness of the registration statement, including any information
          deemed to be a part thereof as of the time of effectiveness pursuant
          to paragraph (b) of Rule 430A or Rule 434 of the Rules and Regulations
          of the Commission under the Act (the "Regulations"), and any
          registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the

          the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Act), including all documents
          incorporated by reference therein, in the form first filed with the
          Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Regulations or filed as part
          of the Registration Statement at the time of effectiveness if no such
          Rule 424(b) filing is required, is herein called the "Prospectus." The
          term "preliminary prospectus" as used herein means each preliminary
          prospectus included in the above referenced Registration Statement
          before it is declared effective as described in Rule 430 of the
          Regulations.  Any reference in this Agreement to the Registration
          Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus shall be
          deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference
          therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Act, as of the date
          of the Registration Statement, such preliminary prospectus or the
          Prospectus, as the case may be, and any reference to any amendment or
          supplement to the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus
          or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any
          documents filed after such date under the Securities Exchange Act of
          1934, as amended, and the applicable published rules and regulations
          of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the "Exchange Act") which,
          upon filing, are incorporated by reference therein, as required by
          paragraph (b) of Item 12 of Form S-3.  As used herein, the term
          "Incorporated Documents" means the documents which at the time are
          incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, any
          preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement
          thereof.  The Registration Statement is effective under the Act, and
          no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
          Statement or any post-effective 

                                    -2-

<PAGE>

          amendment thereof has been issued and no proceedings therefor have
          been initiated or, to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened
          by the Commission. 

               (ii) At the time of the effectiveness of the Registration
          Statement or the effectiveness of any post-effective amendment to the
          Registration Statement, when the Prospectus is first filed with the
          Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Regulations, when any
          supplement to or amendment of the Prospectus is filed with the
          Commission and at the Closing Date, and the Additional Closing Date,
          if any (as hereinafter respectively defined), the Registration
          Statement and the Prospectus and any amendments thereof and
          supplements thereto complied or will comply in all material respects
          with the applicable provisions of the Act and the Regulations and do
          not or will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact and do
          not or will not omit to state any material fact required to be stated
          therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein (i) in
          the case of the Registration Statement, not misleading and (ii) in the
          case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which
          they were made, not misleading.  When any related preliminary
          prospectus was first filed with the Commission (whether filed as part
          of the Registration Statement for the registration of the Shares or
          any amendment thereto or pursuant to Rule 424(a) of the Regulations)
          and when any amendment thereof or supplement thereto was first filed
          with the Commission, such preliminary prospectus and any amendments
          thereof and supplements thereto complied in all material respects with
          the applicable provisions of the Act and the Regulations and did not
          contain an untrue statement of a material fact and did not omit to
          state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
          order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
          circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.  No
          representation and warranty is made in this subsection (a), however,
          with respect to any information contained in or omitted from the
          Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any related preliminary
          prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto in reliance
          upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the
          Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives
          or the Selling Stockholders expressly for use in connection with the
          preparation thereof.  Any term sheet and prospectus subject to
          completion provided by the Company to the Underwriters for use in
          connection with the offering and sale of the Shares pursuant to Rule
          434 of the Regulations together are not materially different from the
          last preliminary prospectus included in the Registration Statement at
          the time of its effectiveness (exclusive of any information deemed to
          be a part thereof by virtue of Rule 434(d) of the Regulations).

               The Incorporated Documents heretofore filed with the Commission,
          when they were filed (or, if any amendment with respect to any such
          document was filed, when such amendment was filed), complied in all
          material respects with 

                                    -3-

<PAGE>

          the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and any further 
          Incorporated Documents so filed will, when they are filed, comply
          in all material respects with the applicable provisions of 
          the Exchange Act; no such document when it was filed (or, if an
          amendment with respect to any such document was filed, when such
          amendment was filed) contained an untrue statement of a material fact
          or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
          necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading; and
          no such further document, when it is filed, will contain an untrue
          statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
          required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
          statements therein not misleading.

               (iii)     Price Waterhouse LLP, who has certified the financial
          statements and supporting schedules included in the Registration
          Statement and the Prospectus, are and were, as the case may be,
          independent public accountants with respect to the Company within the
          meaning of the Act.

               (iv) Subsequent to the respective dates as of which information
          is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, there has
          been no material adverse change or any development involving a
          prospective material adverse change in the business, prospects,
          properties, operations, condition (financial or other) or results of
          operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole,
          whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of
          business, and since the date of the latest balance sheet presented in
          the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, neither the Company nor
          any of its subsidiaries has incurred or undertaken any liabilities or
          obligations, direct or contingent, which are material to the Company
          and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, except for liabilities or
          obligations which are reflected in the Registration Statement and the
          Prospectus and except for changes in amounts outstanding under
          revolving or other credit agreements to which the Company or any
          subsidiary thereof is a party and which agreements are disclosed in
          the Prospectus.

               (v)  This Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein have
          been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the
          Company, and constitute legal, valid and binding agreements of the
          Company enforceable in accordance with their respective terms except
          to the extent that (a) the enforceability hereof may be subject to
          applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent
          transfer, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship and
          other laws affecting creditors' rights generally, (b) equitable
          principles may limit the availability of equitable relief in the case
          of a breach hereof (regardless of whether such remedies are sought in
          a proceeding at law or in equity), and (c) federal securities laws may
          limit the enforceability of the indemnification provisions hereof.

               (vi) The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement
          and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby do not
          and will not (a) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the
          terms and provisions of, or constitute a default (or an event which
          with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default)
          under, or result in the creation or imposition of any material lien,
          charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or
          any of its subsidiaries pursuant to, any agreement, contract, lease,
          instrument, franchise, license, arrangement, authority or permit to
          which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which
          any of such corporations or their respective properties or assets may
          be bound or (b) violate or conflict with any provision of the
          certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company or any of its
          subsidiaries, or any judgment, decree or order of any court or any
          public, governmental or regulatory agency or body having jurisdiction
          over, or any federal, state or local statutory, regulatory or common
          law applicable to, the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of
          their respective properties or assets.  No consent, approval,
          authorization, order, registration, filing, qualification, license or
          permit of or with any court or any public, governmental or regulatory
          agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its
          subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets or with
          any other third party is required for the execution, delivery and
          performance of this Agreement by the Company or the consummation by
          the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the
          issuance, sale and delivery of the Shares to be issued, sold and
          delivered by the Company hereunder, except the registration under the
          Act of the Shares and such consents, approvals, authorizations,
          orders, registrations, filings, qualifications, licenses and permits
          as may be required under state securities or blue sky laws in
          connection with the purchase and distribution of the Shares by the
          Underwriters.

               (vii)     All of the issued and outstanding shares of the
          Company's capital stock of any class, series or rank (including,
          without limitation, those Shares being sold by the Selling
          Stockholders hereunder) are duly and validly authorized and issued,
          fully paid and nonassessable and were not issued and are not now in
          violation of or subject to any preemptive rights.  The unissued Shares
          being sold by the Company hereunder, when issued, delivered and sold
          in accordance with this Agreement, will be duly and validly issued and
          outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, and will not have been
          issued in violation of or be subject to any preemptive rights.  The
          Company has an authorized and outstanding capitalization as set forth
          in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.  The capital stock
          of the Company, including the Common Stock, the Firm Shares and the
          Additional Shares, conforms to the description thereof contained in
          the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.  All of the issued and
          outstanding shares of capital stock of any class, series or rank of
          each subsidiary of the Company have been duly and validly authorized
          and issued and are fully paid and nonassessable and were not issued in
          violation of preemptive rights and (except for directors' qualifying
          shares 

                                    -5-

          and as otherwise disclosed in the Registration Statement and
          the Prospectus) are owned directly or indirectly by the Company, free
          and clear of any lien, encumbrance, claim, security interest,
          restriction on transfer, shareholders' agreement, voting trust or
          other defect of title whatsoever.  The Shares to be sold by the
          Selling Stockholders are included and duly admitted to trading on the
          Nasdaq National Market, and prior to the Closing Date, the Shares to
          be issued and sold by the Company will be authorized for listing by
          the Nasdaq National Market upon official notice of issuance.

               (viii)    Each of the Company and its subsidiaries has been duly
          organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing
          under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation.  Each of the
          Company and its subsidiaries is duly qualified and in good standing as
          a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which the character or
          location of its properties (owned, leased or licensed) or the nature
          or conduct of its business makes such qualification necessary, except
          for those failures to be so qualified or in good standing which will
          not in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the Company and
          its subsidiaries taken as a whole.  Each of the Company and its
          subsidiaries has all requisite power and authority, and possesses and
          is in compliance with all necessary consents, approvals,
          authorizations, orders, registrations, qualifications, licenses,
          franchises and permits of and from all public, regulatory or
          governmental agencies and bodies to own, lease and operate its
          properties and conduct its business as now being conducted and as
          described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, with such
          exceptions as are not material, and no such consent, approval,
          authorization, order, registration, qualification, license, franchise
          or permit contains a materially burdensome restriction not adequately
          disclosed in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

               (ix) Except as described in the Prospectus, there is no
          litigation or governmental proceeding to which the Company or any of
          its subsidiaries is a party or to which any property of the Company or
          any of its subsidiaries is subject or which is pending or, to the
          knowledge of the Company, contemplated against the Company or any of
          its subsidiaries which might result in any material adverse change or
          any development involving a material adverse change in the business,
          prospects, properties, operations, condition (financial or other) or
          results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a
          whole or which is required to be disclosed in the Registration
          Statement and the Prospectus.

               (x)  The Company has not taken and will not take, directly or
          indirectly, any action designed to cause or result in, or which
          constitutes or which might reasonably be expected to constitute, the
          stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock to
          facilitate the sale or resale of the Shares.

               (xi) The financial statements, including the notes thereto, and
          supporting schedules relating to the Company and included in the
          Registration Statement and the Prospectus present fairly the financial
          position of the Company as of the dates indicated and the results of
          operations and cash flows for the periods specified.  The financial
          statements, including the notes thereto, and supporting schedules
          relating to The Genix Group, Inc. and included in the Registration
          Statement and the Prospectus present fairly the financial position of
          The Genix Group, Inc. as of the dates indicated and the results of
          operations and cash flows for the periods specified.  The pro forma
          financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the
          Registration Statement and the Prospectus have been prepared in
          accordance with the Commission's rules and guidelines with respect to
          pro forma financial statements and have been properly compiled on the
          bases described therein, and the assumptions used in the preparation
          thereof are reasonable.  Except as otherwise stated in the
          Registration Statement and the Prospectus, said financial statements
          have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
          principles applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods
          involved, and the supporting schedules, if any, included in the
          Registration Statement and the Prospectus present fairly the
          information required to be stated therein.

               (xii)     Except as described in the Prospectus or included as a
          Selling Stockholder, no holder of securities of the Company has any
          rights to the registration of securities of the Company because of the
          filing of the Registration Statement or otherwise in connection with
          the sale of the Shares contemplated hereby.

               (xiii)    The Company is not, and upon consummation of the
          transactions contemplated hereby will not be, required to register as
          an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
          amended.

               (xiv)     Except as otherwise disclosed in the Registration
          Statement and the Prospectus, the Company and its subsidiaries have
          good and marketable title to all real property and to all personal
          property owned by them, in each case free and clear of all liens,
          encumbrances and defects except such as are described in the
          Prospectus or such as do not materially affect the value of such
          property and do not interfere in any material respect with the use
          made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and its
          subsidiaries; and any real property, buildings and personal property
          held under lease by the Company and its subsidiaries are held by them
          under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as
          are not material and do not interfere with the use thereof made and
          proposed to be made by the Company and its subsidiaries.

               (xv) The Company and its subsidiaries possess and are in
          compliance with all patents, trademarks, franchises, permits, licenses
          (including, without 

                                      -7-

          limitation, all software licenses) and similar items as well 
          as all electronic data processing, electronic fund transfer
          and other contracts, agreements, leases and arrangements
          necessary or material to carrying on their business as presently
          conducted or proposed to be conducted and as described in the
          Registration Statement and the Prospectus, except where the failure to
          possess any of the foregoing would not, singly or in the aggregate,
          have a material adverse effect upon the business, prospects,
          properties, operations, condition (financial or other) or results of
          operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and
          except as otherwise described in the Registration Statement and the
          Prospectus, neither the Company nor any such subsidiary has received
          any notice of cancellation of the same on any notice of proceedings
          relating to the revocation, suspension or modification of any of the
          foregoing which, singly or in the aggregate, would result in a
          material adverse change in the business, prospects, properties,
          operations, condition (financial or other) or results of operations of
          the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole or which is required
          to be disclosed in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

               (xvi)     Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is in
          default (nor has any event occurred which, with notice or lapse of
          time or both, would constitute a default) under any provisions of any
          agreement, contract, lease, indenture, instrument, license or
          arrangement to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party
          or by which it is bound, where such default could have a material
          adverse effect on the business, prospects, properties, condition
          (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Company and
          its subsidiaries taken as a whole.

               (xvii)    The Company has received and has delivered to the
          Representatives executed undertakings, substantially in the form
          attached hereto as Annex I, of each of Darwin Deason and First
          Nationwide Bank, with respect to their disposition of any Stock or any
          securities substantially similar to the Stock or any securities
          exchangeable for, convertible into or exercisable for Stock or
          securities substantially similar to the Stock (any such securities
          herein called the "Covered Securities") owned of record or
          beneficially by them until September 22, 1996.

               (xviii)   The Company has filed with the Commission a
          Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 33-79394) under the Act and
          Rule 415 thereunder for the registration of shares of Class A Common
          Stock held by certain of its stockholders (the "Shelf Stockholders"). 
          Such registration statement, including the prospectus, financial
          statements and schedules, exhibits and all other documents filed as a
          part thereof, at the time of effectiveness of such registration
          statement, and as subsequently amended or supplemented, is herein
          called the "Shelf Registration Statement", and the prospectus, in the
          form filed with the Commission as part of the Shelf Registration
          Statement at the time of its effectiveness, and as subsequently
          amended or supplemented, is herein called the "Shelf Prospectus." 


                                      -8-

<PAGE>

          The Shelf Registration Statement is effective under the Act, and no 
          stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration 
          Statement has been issued and no proceedings therefor have been 
          initiated or, to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened by 
          the Commission.  At the time of effectiveness of the Shelf 
          Registration Statement and at the Closing Date and the Additional 
          Closing Date, if any, the Shelf Registration Statement and the Shelf
          Prospectus complied or will comply in all material respects with the
          applicable provisions of the Act, and will not contain an untrue 
          statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact 
          required to be stated therein in order to make the statements 
          therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
          not misleading.  To the best of the Company's knowledge, any sales
          by Shelf Stockholders of Class A Common Stock under the Shelf 
          Registration Statement have been and will be made in full compliance
          with the registration and/or qualification requirements under the
          state securities or blue sky laws of the various states or pursuant
          to applicable exemptions therefrom.

               (xix)     In connection with sales of Class A Common Stock by the
          Shelf Stockholders under the Shelf Registration Statement, such
          stockholders are required to sell an equal number of shares of Class A
          Common Stock (the "Precept Stock") of Precept Business Products, Inc.
          ("Precept").  Such sales of Precept Stock can be made either to
          Precept in exchange for a promissory note issued by Precept (a
          "Precept Note") or to an unrelated third party.  As of the Closing
          Date and the Additional Closing Date, if any, the Company has not
          participated in any public or private distribution or in any
          underwriting of such a distribution of the Precept Notes.   

               (xx) The Company structured the Spin-Off (as such term is defined
          in the Prospectus and herein so called) to qualify for tax-free
          treatment under Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
          amended (the "Code"), and, as a result, no gain or loss was recognized
          to (and no amount was included in the income of) the stockholders of
          the Company who participated in the Spin-Off, nor was any gain or loss
          recognized to the Company, by reason of the distribution of the
          capital stock of Precept as contemplated by the Spin-Off.  The Company
          has taken appropriate steps (contractual or otherwise) to ensure that
          the "linked sales restriction" referenced in the Prospectus has been
          and will be complied with by the Shelf Stockholders and, if
          applicable, the Selling Stockholders.  In connection with the Spin-
          Off, the Company entered into an indemnification agreement in favor of
          the Company's stockholders who participated in the Spin-Off pursuant
          to which the Company has agreed to indemnify such stockholders for any
          actual taxes (including penalties, interest and legal fees), net of
          the actual or assumed benefit resulting from increased tax basis, that
          may be asserted against such stockholders on the basis that the Spin-
          Off fails to qualify under Section 355 of the Code, which
          indemnification liability, in the aggregate, is limited to $5 million.
          To date, the Company has not received any notice from the Internal
          Revenue Service or 

                                      -9-

<PAGE>

          from any such stockholder that the Internal Revenue Service is 
          challenging the tax-free treatment of the Spin-Off or any
          notice from any such stockholder that it is asserting a claim for
          indemnification under such indemnification agreement.

               (xxi)     The Company is eligible to utilize Form S-3
          registration statements under the Act and the Regulations with respect
          to sales of its securities, including without limitation, the sale of
          the Shares contemplated hereby.

               (xxii)    The closing contemplated by that certain Stock Purchase
          Agreement (together with all of the ancillary documents referred to
          therein, the "Genix Purchase Agreement") dated as of May 31, 1996
          between the Company and MCN Investment Corporation ("MCN") has
          occurred, and the Company has purchased all of the issued and
          outstanding stock of The Genix Group, Inc. in accordance with the
          terms of the Genix Purchase Agreement.  The execution, delivery and
          performance by MCN of the Genix Purchase Agreement, and the
          consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby,
          was duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of
          the Company.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Company
          of the Genix Purchase Agreement, and the consummation by MCN of the
          transactions contemplated thereby, was duly authorized by all
          necessary corporate action on the part of MCN.  The Genix Purchase
          Agreement is a valid and binding agreement of the parties thereto
          enforceable against them in accordance with its terms.  The Company is
          not in breach of or in default under, nor has any event occurred which
          (with or without the giving of notice or the passage of time or both)
          would constitute a default by the Company under, the Genix Purchase
          Agreement, and the Company has not received any notice from, or given
          any notice to, any other party indicating that the Company or such
          other party is in breach of or in default under the Genix Purchase
          Agreement.  To the best knowledge of the Company, no other party to
          any of such agreements is in breach of or in default under the Genix
          Purchase Agreement, nor has any assertion been made by the Company of
          any such breach or default.

               (xxiii)   The assets and liabilities of The Genix Group, Inc. are
          substantially as reflected in the condensed interim financial
          statements for the three months ended March 31, 1996 contained in the
          Registration Statement and Prospectus.   

               (b)  Each Selling Stockholder represents and warrants to, and
     agrees with, the several Underwriters that:

               (i)  Certificates in negotiable form for the Shares to be sold by
          such Selling Stockholder have been placed in custody under a Custody
          Agreement (each a "Custody Agreement") for delivery under this
          Agreement with the Company, as Custodian (the "Custodian").  Such
          Selling Stockholder specifically agrees that the Shares represented by
          the certificates so held in custody for such Selling 


                                      -10-

<PAGE>

          Stockholder are subject to the interests of the several Underwriters
          and the Company, that the arrangements made by such Selling 
          Stockholder for such custody, including the Power of Attorney (each
          a "Power of Attorney") provided for in such Custody Agreement, are 
          to that extent irrevocable, and that the obligations of such Selling
          Stockholder shall not be terminated by any act of such Selling 
          Stockholder or by operation of law, whether by the death or incapacity
          of such Selling Stockholder (or, in the case of a Selling Stockholder
          that is not an individual, the dissolution or liquidation of such 
          Selling Stockholder) or the occurrence of any other event; if any such
          death, incapacity, dissolution, liquidation or other such event should
          occur before the delivery of such Shares hereunder, certificates for 
          such Shares shall be delivered by the Custodian in accordance with the
          terms and conditions of this Agreement as if such death, incapacity,
          dissolution, liquidation or other event had not occurred, regardless
          of whether the Custodian shall have received notice of such death,
          incapacity, dissolution, liquidation or other event.

               (ii) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
          and the Custody Agreement (including the Power of Attorney included
          therein) by or on behalf of such Selling Stockholder and the
          consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will
          not (a) conflict with or result in the breach of any of the terms and
          provisions of, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice
          or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) or require
          consent under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien,
          charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of such Selling
          Stockholder pursuant to the terms of any agreement, instrument,
          franchise, license or permit to which such Selling Stockholder is a
          party or by which such Selling Stockholder or any of such Selling
          Stockholder's property or assets may be bound, (b) if applicable,
          violate or conflict with any provision of the certificate of
          incorporation or bylaws of the such Selling Stockholder or (c) violate
          or conflict with any judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or
          regulation of any court or any public, governmental or regulatory
          agency or body having jurisdiction over such Selling Stockholder or
          such Selling Stockholder's properties or assets.

               (iii) Such Selling Stockholder has, and at the time of delivery
          of the Shares to be sold by such selling Stockholder such Selling
          Stockholder will have, full legal right, power, authority and
          capacity, and, except as required under the Act and state securities
          and Blue Sky laws, all necessary consents, approvals, authorizations,
          orders, registrations, filings, qualifications, licenses and permits
          of and from all public, regulatory or governmental agencies and bodies
          as are required for the execution, delivery and performance of this
          Agreement and the Custody Agreement (including the Power of Attorney
          therein) and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
          and thereby, including the sale, assignment, transfer and delivery of
          the Shares to be sold, assigned, transferred and delivered by such
          Selling Stockholder hereunder.

          Stockholder.  
 
               2.   PURCHASE, SALE AND DELIVERY OF THE SHARES.

               (a)  On the basis of the representations, warranties, covenants
     and agreements herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions
     herein set forth, the Company and each of the Selling Stockholders agree,
     severally and not jointly, to sell to each of the Underwriters and each of
     the Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase from the
     Company and each of the Selling Stockholders, at a purchase price per share
     of $_______, the number of Firm Shares (to be adjusted by the
     Representatives so as to eliminate fractional shares) determined by
     multiplying the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be sold by the Company
     and each of the Selling Stockholders as set forth opposite their respective
     names in Schedule II hereto by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
     aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased by such Underwriter as set
     forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule I hereto (plus any
     additional number of Shares which such Underwriter may become obligated to
     purchase pursuant to the provisions of Section 9 hereof), and the
     denominator of which is the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased
     by all the Underwriters from the Company and all the Selling Stockholders
     hereunder.

               (b)  Payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of
     certificates for, the Firm Shares shall be made at the office of Bear,
     Stearns & Co. Inc., 300 Crescent Court, Suite 200, Dallas, Texas 75201, or
     at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representatives and the
     Company, at 9:00 A.M., Dallas Time, on the third or fourth (if the
     transactions contemplated hereby were priced after the close of the market)
     business day (unless postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section
     9 hereof) following the date of this Agreement, or such other time not
     later than seven full business days after such date as shall be agreed upon
     in writing by the Representatives, the Company and the Selling Stockholders
     (such time and date of payment and delivery being herein called the
     "Closing Date").  Payment shall be made to the Company and the Custodian,
     as the case may be, by wire transfer on the federal wire system to accounts
     in 


                                      -13-

<PAGE>


     the United States designated in writing by the Company and the Custodian
     not later than three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date, against
     delivery to the Representatives for the respective accounts of the
     Underwriters of certificates for the Firm Shares to be purchased by them. 
     Certificates for the Firm Shares shall be registered in such name or names
     and in such authorized denominations as the Representatives may request in
     writing at least one full business days prior to the Closing Date.  Such
     certificates will be made available to the Representatives at the offices
     of Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc., 245 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10167, for
     checking and packaging for delivery at least one full business day prior to
     the Closing Date.  

               (c)  In addition, in the event and to the extent that the
     Underwriters shall exercise the option to purchase Additional Shares as
     provided below, the Company agrees to sell to each of the Underwriters 
     and each of the Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agrees to 
     purchase from the Company, at the purchase price per share set forth 
     in clause (a) of this Section 2, that portion of the number of Additional
     Shares as to which such option shall have been exercised (to be adjusted 
     by the Representatives so as to eliminate fractional shares) determined 
     by multiplying such number of Additional Shares by a fraction, the 
     numerator of which is the maximum number of Additional Shares that such
     Underwriter is entitled to purchase as set forth opposite the name of such
     Underwriter in Schedule I hereto and the denominator of which is the
     aggregate number of Additional Shares which all of the Underwriters are
     entitled to purchase hereunder.

          The Company hereby grants to the Underwriters the option to purchase
     at their option up to 604,125 Additional Shares, at the purchase price 
     per Share set forth in clause (a) of this Section 2, for the sole purpose
     of covering any over-allotments in the sale of the Firm Shares.  Any 
     such election to purchase Additional Shares may be exercised by written
     notice from the Representatives to the Company and the Attorneys-in-Fact,
     given within a period of 30 calendar days after the date of this 
     Agreement and setting forth the aggregate number of Additional Shares to
     be purchased and the date and time when such Additional Shares are to be
     delivered, as reasonably determined by the Representatives (such date 
     and time being herein sometimes referred to as the "Additional Closing
     Date"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Additional Closing Date shall not 
     be earlier than the Closing Date or earlier than the second full 
     business day after the date on which the option shall have been
     exercised nor later than the eighth full business day after the date on
     which the option shall have been exercised (unless such time and date are
     postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 hereof). 
     Certificates for Additional Shares shall be registered in such name or
     names and in such authorized denominations as the Representatives may
     request in writing at least one full business day prior to the Additional
     Closing Date.  Such certificates will be made available to the
     Representatives at the offices of Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc., 245 Park
     Avenue, New York, New York 10167, for checking and packaging for delivery
     at least one full business day prior to the Additional Closing Date.

               Payment for the Additional Shares shall be made by wire transfer
     on the federal wire system to account(s) in the United States designated in
     writing by the Company not later than three (3) business days prior to 
     the Additional Closing Date, upon delivery of the certificates for the 
     Additional Shares to the Representatives for the respective accounts of
     the Underwriters.

               3.   OFFERING.  Upon the Representatives' authorization of the
     release of the Firm Shares, the Underwriters propose to offer the Shares
     for sale to the public upon the terms set forth in the Prospectus.

               4.   COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY AND THE SELLING STOCKHOLDERS.

          (a)  The Company covenants and agrees with the Underwriters that:

               (i)  If the Registration Statement has not yet been declared
          effective the Company will use its best efforts to cause the
          Registration Statement and any amendments thereto to become effective
          as promptly as possible, and if Rule 430A of the Regulations is used
          or the filing of the Prospectus is otherwise required under Rule
          424(b) of the Regulations, the Company will file the Prospectus
          (properly completed if such Rule 430A has been used) pursuant to such
          Rule 424(b) within the prescribed time period and will provide
          evidence satisfactory to the Representatives of such timely filing. 
          The Company will notify the Representatives immediately (and, if
          requested by the Representatives, will confirm such notice in writing)
          (A) when the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto become
          effective, (B) of any request by the Commission for any amendment of
          or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or for
          any additional information, (C) of the mailing or the delivery to the
          Commission for filing of any amendment of or supplement to the
          Registration Statement or the Prospectus, (D) of the issuance by the
          Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
          Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or of
          the initiation, or the threatening, of any proceedings therefor, (E)
          of the receipt of any comments from the Commission, and (F) of the
          receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the
          suspension of the qualification of the Shares for sale in any
          jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for
          that purpose.  If the Commission shall propose or enter a stop order
          at any time, the Company will make every reasonable effort to prevent
          the issuance of any such stop order and, if issued, to obtain the
          lifting of such order as soon as possible.  The Company will not file
          any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment of or
          supplement to the Prospectus (including any prospectus required to be
          filed pursuant to such Rule 424(b) and including the issuance or
          filing of any term sheet within the meaning of Rule 434 of the
          Regulations) that differs from the preliminary prospectus on file at
          the time of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement before or
          after the effective date of the Registration Statement to which the

                                      -15-

<PAGE>

          Representatives shall reasonably object in writing after being timely
          furnished in advance a copy thereof.

               (ii) If at any time when a prospectus relating to the Shares is
          required to be delivered under the Act any event shall have occurred
          as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented
          includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any
          material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
          statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
          were made, not misleading, or if it shall be necessary at any time to
          amend or supplement the Prospectus or Registration Statement to comply
          with the Act or the Regulations, the Company will notify the
          Representatives promptly and prepare and file with the Commission an
          appropriate amendment or supplement (in form and substance reasonably
          satisfactory to the Representatives) which will correct such statement
          or omission or which will effect such compliance and will use all
          reasonable efforts to have any amendment to the Registration Statement
          declared effective as soon as possible.

               (iii)     The Company will promptly deliver to the
          Representatives four signed copies of the Registration Statement,
          including exhibits and all amendments thereto, and the Company will
          promptly deliver to each of the Underwriters such number of copies of
          any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus, the Registration
          Statement, and all amendments of and supplements to such documents, if
          any, as the Representatives may reasonably request.

               (iv) The Company will cooperate with the Representatives, at or
          prior to the time of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, in
          connection with the qualification of the offering or sale of the
          Shares under the state securities or blue sky laws of such
          jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate and the maintenance
          of such qualification in effect for so long as required to complete
          the offer and sale of the Shares, except that in no event shall the
          Company be obligated in connection therewith to qualify as a foreign
          corporation or as a broker or a dealer in any jurisdiction in which it
          is not so qualified or to execute a general consent to service of
          process.

               (v)  The Company will make generally available (within the
          meaning of Section 11(a) of the Act) to its security holders and to
          the Representatives as soon as practicable, but not later than 45 days
          after the end of its fiscal quarter in which the first anniversary
          date of the effective date of the Registration Statement occurs, an
          earning statement (in form complying with the provisions of Rule 158
          of the Regulations) covering a period of at least twelve consecutive
          months beginning after the effective date of the Registration
          Statement.

               (vi) During the period of 90 days from the date of the
          Prospectus, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of
          Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc., 


                                      -16-

          issue, sell, offer or agree to sell, grant any option for the sale of
          (other than new employee stock options to purchase up to 75,000 
          shares of Common Stock to be granted pursuant to the Company's 
          existing stock option plans following the date of the Prospectus,
          provided that any such new options granted will not become
          exercisable during such 90 day period), or otherwise dispose of,
          directly or indirectly, any Covered Securities, otherwise than
          hereunder or upon the exercise of presently outstanding stock options;
          provided, however, that during such period the Company may issue up to
          100,000 shares of unregistered Common Stock in connection with the
          consummation of acquisitions provided that it gives prior written
          notice of any such issuances to Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc.

               (vii)     During a period of three years from the effective date
          of the Registration Statement, the Company will furnish to the
          Representatives copies of (A) all reports to its stockholders; and (B)
          all reports, financial statements and proxy or information statements
          filed by the Company with the Commission, any national securities
          exchange or the Nasdaq National Market.

               (viii)    The Company will apply the net proceeds from the sale
          of the Shares by it hereunder as set forth in "Use of Proceeds" in the
          Prospectus.

               (ix) The Company will cause the Shares to be sold by it hereunder
          to be approved, upon official notice of issuance, for quotation on the
          Nasdaq National Market.

          (b)  Each Selling Stockholder covenants and agrees with the several
     Underwriters that:

               (i)  Such Selling Stockholder has not taken and will not take,
          directly or indirectly, any action which is designed to or which has
          constituted or which might reasonably be expected to cause or result
          in stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the
          Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Shares.

               5.   PAYMENT OF EXPENSES.  Whether or not the transactions
     contemplated in this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is
     terminated, the Company hereby agrees to pay or cause to be paid all costs
     and expenses, except as set forth below, incident to the performance of the
     obligations of the Company and the Selling Stockholders hereunder,
     including those in connection with (i) preparing, printing, duplicating,
     filing and distributing the Registration Statement, as originally prepared
     and all amendments thereof (including all exhibits thereto), any
     preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus and any amendments or supplements
     thereto (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Company's
     accountants and counsel), the underwriting documents (including this
     Agreement, the related agreement among underwriters and any selected
     dealers agreement, other than fees and expenses of Underwriters' counsel)

     documents related to the public offering of the Shares (including those
     supplied to the Underwriters in quantities as hereinabove stated), (ii) the
     issuance and delivery of the Shares by the Company to the Underwriters,
     including any transfer or other taxes payable thereon, (iii) the 
     qualification of the Shares under state or foreign securities or blue
     sky laws, including the costs of printing and mailing a preliminary and
     final "blue sky memorandum" and the fees of counsel for the Underwriters
     and such counsel's disbursements in relation thereto, (iv) inclusion of the

     discounts and commissions with respect to the Shares.  In addition, to the
     extent, if at all, that any Selling Stockholder engages special legal
     counsel to represent such Selling Stockholder, in addition to the one
     counsel representing the Selling Stockholders as a group, in connection
     with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the fees and expenses
     of such special counsel shall be paid by such Selling Stockholder; and any
     transfer or other taxes imposed on the sale or delivery of the Shares by a
     Selling Stockholder to the several Underwriters will be paid by such
     Selling Stockholder.

               6.   CONDITIONS OF UNDERWRITERS' OBLIGATIONS.  The obligations of

          stock of the Company of any class, series or rank, including the
          Common Stock, the Firm Shares and the Additional Shares, conforms in
          all material respects to the description thereof contained in the

          with this Agreement, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and

          Date by the Selling Stockholders are duly and validly authorized and
          issued, fully paid and nonassessable and were not issued in violation
          of or subject to any preemptive rights.  

                    (iii)     This Agreement and the transactions contemplated
          herein have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered
          by the Company, and constitute legal, valid and binding agreements of
          the Company enforceable in accordance with their respective terms
          except to the extent that (a) the enforceability hereof and thereof
          may be subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
          transfer, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium,
          liquidation, conservatorship and other laws affecting creditors'
          rights generally, (b) equitable principles may limit the availability
          of equitable relief in the case of a breach hereof or thereof
          (regardless of whether such remedies are sought in a proceeding at law
          or in equity), and (c) federal securities laws may limit the
          enforceability of the indemnification provisions hereunder.

                    (iv) The execution, delivery, and performance of this
          Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
          by the Company do not and will not (a) conflict with or result in a
          breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default
          (or an event which with notice or lapse of time, or both, would
          constitute a default) under, or result in the creation or imposition
          of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the
          Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to, any material
          agreement, contract, lease, arrangement, instrument, franchise,
          license or permit known to such counsel after reasonable inquiry to
          which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which
          any of such corporations or their respective properties or assets may

          be bound or (b) violate or conflict with any provision of the
          certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company or any of its
          subsidiaries, any federal, state or local statutory, regulatory or
          common law known to such counsel after reasonable inquiry or, to the
          best knowledge of such counsel after reasonable inquiry, any judgment,
          decree, order, rule or regulation of any court or any public,
          governmental or regulatory agency or body having jurisdiction over the
          Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective
          properties or assets.  No consent, approval, authorization, order,
          registration, filing, qualification, license or permit of or with any
          court or any public, governmental, or regulatory agency or body having

          their respective properties or assets is required for the execution,
          delivery and performance of this Agreement or the consummation of the
          transactions contemplated hereby, except for (a) such as may be
          required under state securities or blue sky laws in connection with
          the purchase and distribution of the Shares by the Underwriters (as to
          which such counsel need express no opinion) and (b) such as have been
          made under the Act.

                    (v)  The Company is not, and upon consummation of the
          transactions contemplated hereby will not be, required to register as
          an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
          amended.

                    (vi) The Registration Statement and the Prospectus and any
          amendments thereof or supplements thereto (other than the financial
          statements, financial statement notes, financial statement schedules
          and other financial, accounting or statistical data included or
          incorporated by reference therein, as to which no opinion need be
          rendered) comply as to form in all material respects with the
          requirements of the Act and the Regulations.

                    (vii) The Registration Statement is effective under the Act,
          and, to the best knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending
          the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective
          amendment thereof has been issued and no proceedings therefor have
          been initiated or threatened by the Commission and all filings
          required by Rule 424(b) of the Regulations have been timely made.

                    (viii)  The statements made in the Prospectus, as amended or
          supplemented, under the captions "The Acquisition", "Business",
          "Reorganization", "Management", and "Principal and Selling
          Stockholders", insofar as they purport to constitute summaries or to
          describe the provisions of the documents, transactions or legal
          matters therein described, in summary form, are fair and accurate
          summaries in all material respects. 

               In addition, such counsel shall also state that such counsel has
          participated in conferences with officers and representatives of the
          Company, representatives

                                      -20-

<PAGE>


          of the independent public accountants for the Company and the 
          Underwriters at which the contents of the Registration
          Statement and the Prospectus and related matters were discussed and,
          although such counsel is not passing upon, and does not assume
          responsibility for and has not independently verified, the accuracy,
          completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the
          Registration Statement or the Prospectus, on the basis of the
          foregoing, no facts have come to the attention of such counsel which
          would lead such counsel to believe that either the Registration
          Statement at the time it became effective (including the information
          deemed to be part of the Registration Statement at the time of
          effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430A(b) of the Regulations, if
          applicable), or any amendment thereof made prior to the Closing Date
          as of the date of such amendment, contained an untrue statement of a
          material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be
          stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
          misleading or that the Prospectus as of its date (or any amendment
          thereof or supplement thereto made prior to the Closing Date as of the
          date of such amendment or supplement) and as of the Closing Date
          contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or
          omitted or omits to state any material fact required to be stated
          therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of
          the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (it being
          understood that such counsel need express no belief or opinion with
          respect to the financial statements, financial statement notes,
          financial statement schedules and other financial, accounting or
          statistical data included therein).

               In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely (a) as to
          matters involving the application of laws other than the laws of the
          United States and jurisdictions in which they are admitted, to the
          extent such counsel deems proper and to the extent specified in such
          opinion, if at all, upon an opinion or opinions (in form and substance
          reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives) of other counsel
          reasonably acceptable to the Representatives, familiar with the
          applicable laws; and (b) as to matters of fact, to the extent they
          deem proper, on certificates of responsible officers of the Company
          and certificates or other written statements of officers of
          departments of various jurisdictions having custody of documents
          respecting the corporate existence or good standing of the Company and
          its subsidiaries, provided that copies of any such statements or
          certificates shall be delivered to the Representatives.  The opinion
          of such counsel for the Company shall state that the opinion of any
          such other counsel is in form satisfactory to such counsel and, in
          their opinion, the Representatives and they are justified in relying
          thereon.  Furthermore, in rendering such opinion, to the extent that
          the matters discussed in clause (iii) above involve or may be governed
          by or construed under the laws of the State of New York, such counsel
          may assume that the laws of New York are the same as the laws of the
          State of Texas.

          (c)  At the Closing Date the Representatives shall have received the
     opinion of David W. Black, Executive Vice President and General Counsel of
     the Company, dated 

                                      -21-

     substance satisfactory to the Representatives, to the effect that:

                    (i)  All of the issued and outstanding shares of the
          Company's capital stock of any class, series or rank, including the
          Shares to be delivered and sold by the Company and the Selling
          Stockholders in accordance with this Agreement, are duly and validly
          authorized and issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and were not
          issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive rights.  All of
          the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of any class,
          series or rank of each subsidiary of the Company have been duly and
          validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable and were not
          issued in violation of preemptive rights and (except for directors'
          qualifying shares and as set forth in the Prospectus) are owned
          directly or indirectly by the Company, free and clear of any lien,

          whatsoever.

                    (ii) Each subsidiary of the Company (other than the
          Significant Subsidiaries) has been duly organized and is validly
          existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the
          jurisdiction of its incorporation.  Each of the Company and its
          subsidiaries is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign
          corporation in each jurisdiction in which the character or location of
          its properties (owned, leased or licensed) or the nature or conduct of
          its business makes such qualification necessary, except for those
          failures to be so qualified or in good standing which will not in the
          aggregate have a material adverse effect on the Company and its
          subsidiaries taken as a whole.  Each of the Company and its
          subsidiaries has all requisite power and authority, and possesses and
          is in compliance with all necessary consents, approvals,
          authorizations, orders, registrations, qualifications, licenses,
          franchises and permits of and from all public, regulatory or
          governmental agencies and bodies to own, lease and operate its
          properties and conduct its business as now being conducted and as
          described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, with such
          exceptions as are not material.

                    (iii)     Except as described in the Prospectus, there is no
          litigation or governmental or other action, suit, proceeding or
          investigation before any court or before or by any public, regulatory
          or governmental agency or body pending or, to the best of such
          counsel's knowledge after reasonable inquiry, threatened against, or
          involving the properties or business of, the Company or any of its
          subsidiaries, which might result in any material adverse change in the
          business, prospects, properties, operations, financial condition or
          results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a
          whole, or which is of a character required to be disclosed in the
          Prospectus.

          marketable title to all real property and to all personal property
          owned by them, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances
          and defects with such exceptions as are described in the Prospectus or
          are not material and do not interfere with the use made or proposed to
          be made of such property by the Company and its subsidiaries; and any
          real property, buildings and personal property held under lease by the
          Company and its subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting
          and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do
          not interfere with the use thereof made and proposed to be made by the
          Company and its subsidiaries, except to the extent that (a) the
          enforceability thereof may be subject to applicable bankruptcy,
          insolvency, fraudulent transfer, fraudulent conveyance,
          reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship and other
          laws affecting creditors' rights generally, and (b) equitable
          principles may limit the availability of equitable relief in the case
          of a breach thereof (regardless of whether such remedies are sought in
          a proceeding at law or in equity).

                    (v)  The Company and its subsidiaries possess and are in
          compliance with all patents, trademarks, franchises, permits, licenses
          (including, without limitation, all software licenses) and similar
          items as well as all electronic data processing, electronic fund
          transfer and other contracts, agreements, leases and arrangements
          necessary or material to carrying on their business as presently
          conducted or proposed to be conducted and as described in the
          Prospectus, except where the failure to possess any of the foregoing
          would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect
          upon the business, prospects, properties, operations, condition
          (financial or other) or results of operations of the Company and its
          subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and except as otherwise described in
          the Prospectus, neither the Company nor any such subsidiary has
          received any notice of cancellation or any notice of proceedings
          relating to the revocation, suspension or modification of any of the
          foregoing which, singly or in the aggregate, would result in a
          material adverse change in the business, prospects, properties,
          operations, condition (financial or other) or results of operations of
          the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole or which is required
          to be disclosed in the Prospectus.

                    (vi) Each of the Incorporated Documents (other than the
          financial statements, financial statement notes, financial statement
          schedules and other financial, accounting or statistical data included
          or incorporated by reference therein, as to which no opinion need be
          rendered) complies as to form in all material respects with the
          requirements of the Exchange Act.

          or supplemented, under the captions "The Acquisition", "Business",
          "Reorganization", "Management", and "Principal and Selling
          Stockholders", insofar as they purport to constitute summaries of or
          to describe the provisions of the documents, 


                                      -23-

<PAGE>


          transactions or legal matters therein described, in summary form, 
          are fair and accurate summaries in all material respects.

                    (viii)    The Shelf Registration Statement is effective
          under the Act, and, to the best knowledge of such counsel after
          reasonable inquiry, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
          Shelf Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings
          therefor have been initiated or threatened by the Commission.  At the
          time of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement and at the
          Closing Date, the Shelf Registration Statement and the Shelf
          Prospectus complied or will comply in all material respects with the

                    (ix) As of the Closing Date, the Company has not
          participated in any public or private distribution or in any
          underwriting of such a distribution of the Precept Notes.

               In addition, such counsel shall also state that such counsel has
          participated in conferences with other officers and representatives of
          the Company, representatives of the independent public accountants and
          counsel for the Company and the Underwriters at which the contents of
          the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and related matters were
          discussed (including review and discussion of the contents of all
          Incorporated Documents) and, although such counsel is not passing
          upon, and does not assume responsibility for and has not independently
          verified, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements
          contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, on the
          basis of the foregoing, no facts have come to the attention of such
          counsel which would lead such counsel to believe that either the
          Registration Statement at the time it became effective (including the
          Incorporated Documents and the information deemed to be part of the
          Registration Statement at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule
          430A(b) of the Regulations, if applicable), or any amendment thereof
          made prior to the Closing Date as of the date of such amendment,
          contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state
          any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
          the statements therein not misleading or that the Prospectus as of its
          date (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto made prior to the
          Closing Date as of the date of such amendment or supplement) and as of
          the Closing Date contained or contains an untrue statement of a
          material fact or omitted or omits to state any material fact required
          to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
          the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
          misleading (it being understood that such counsel need express no
          belief or opinion with respect to the financial statements, financial
          statement notes, financial statement schedules and other financial,
          accounting or statistical data included therein).

               In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely (a) as to
          matters involving the application of laws other than the laws of the
          United States and 

                                      -24-

<PAGE>

          jurisdictions in which he is admitted, to the extent such counsel
          deems proper and to the extent specified in such opinion,
          if at all, upon an opinion or opinions (in form and substance
          reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives) of other counsel
          reasonably acceptable to the Representatives, familiar with the
          applicable laws; and (b) as to matters of fact, to the extent he deems
          proper, on certificates of responsible officers of the Company and
          certificates or other written statements of officers of departments of
          various jurisdictions having custody of documents respecting the
          corporate existence or good standing of the Company and its
          subsidiaries, provided that copies of any such statements or
          certificates shall be delivered to the Representatives.  The opinion
          of such counsel for the Company shall state that the opinion of any
          such other counsel is in form satisfactory to such counsel and, in his
          opinion, the Representatives and he are justified in relying thereon.

          (d)  At the Closing Date the Representatives shall have received the
     favorable opinion of counsel for each of the Selling Stockholders, as set
     forth in Schedule II hereto, dated the Closing Date, addressed to the
     Underwriters and in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives,
     to the effect that:

                    (i)  Each of this Agreement and the Custody Agreement
          (including the Power of Attorney therein) has been duly and validly
          authorized, executed and delivered by or on behalf of each Selling
          Stockholder and each of this Agreement and the Custody Agreement
          (including the Power of Attorney therein) is a valid and binding
          obligation of each Selling Stockholder, enforceable against such
          Selling Stockholder in accordance with its terms, except to the extent
          that (a) the enforceability hereof and thereof may be subject to
          applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, fraudulent
          conveyance, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship
          and other laws affecting creditors' rights generally, (b) equitable
          principles may limit the availability of equitable relief in the case
          of a breach hereof or thereof (regardless of whether such remedies are
          sought in a proceeding at law or in equity), and (c) federal
          securities laws may limit the enforceability of the indemnification
          provisions hereunder.

                    (ii) Each Selling Stockholder has all requisite power and
          authority, and all necessary consents, approvals, authorizations,
          orders, registrations, filings, qualifications, licenses and permits
          of and from all courts and all public, governmental or regulatory
          agencies and bodies as are required for the execution, delivery and
          performance of this Agreement, the Custody Agreement (including the
          Power of Attorney therein) and the consummation of the transactions
          contemplated hereby and thereby except for (1) such as may be required
          under state securities or Blue Sky laws in connection with the
          purchase and distribution of the Shares by the Underwriters (as to
          which such counsel need express no opinion) and (2) such as have been
          made or obtained under the Act.

                    (iii)     Upon the delivery of and payment for the Shares to
          be sold by each Selling Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement as
          herein contemplated, each of the Underwriters who is not aware of any
          adverse claim with respect thereto will receive good, valid and
          marketable title to the Shares purchased by it from each Selling
          Stockholder, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, claims,
          security interests, restrictions on transfer, shareholders'
          agreements, voting trusts and other defects in title whatsoever.

                    (iv) The execution, delivery and performance of this
          Agreement and the Custody Agreement (including the Power or Attorney
          therein) by each Selling Stockholder and the consummation of the
          transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not violate or
          conflict with any provision of the certificate of incorporation or
          bylaws of any Selling Stockholder or any agreement, contract, lease,
          arrangement, instrument, franchise, license or permit known to such
          counsel after reasonable inquiry to which the Selling Stockholder is a
          party or any statute or, to the best knowledge of such counsel after
          reasonable inquiry, any judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation of
          any court or any public, governmental or regulatory agency or body
          having jurisdiction over any of the Selling Stockholders or any of
          their respective properties or assets.

                    (v)  The Statements in the Prospectus under the caption
          "Principal and Selling Stockholders", insofar as such statements
          constitute a summary of the matters referred to therein, fairly
          present the information called for with respect to such matters.

               In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely (A) as to
          matters involving the application of laws other than the laws of the
          United States and jurisdiction in which they are admitted, to the
          extent such counsel deems proper and to the extent specified in such
          opinion, if at all, upon an opinion or opinions (in form and substance
          reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives) of other counsel
          reasonably acceptable to the Representatives, familiar with the
          applicable laws; and (B) as to matters of fact, to the extent they
          deem proper, on certificates of, or certificates of responsible
          officers of, the Selling Stockholders, provided that copies of any
          such statements or certificates shall be delivered to the
          Representatives.  The opinions of such counsel for each Selling
          Stockholder shall state that the opinion of any such other counsel is
          in form satisfactory to such counsel and, in their opinion, the
          Representatives and they are justified in relying thereon.

          (e)  All proceedings taken in connection with the sale of the Firm
     Shares and the Additional Shares as herein contemplated shall be
     satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives, and the
     Underwriters shall have received from Thompson & Knight, P.C., counsel for
     the Underwriters, a favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Date, with
     respect to the issuance and sale of the Shares, the Registration Statement
     and 

                                      -26-

     the Prospectus and such other related matters as the Representatives
     may reasonably require, and the Company shall have furnished to such
     counsel such documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to
     pass upon such matters.

          (f)  At the Closing Date the Representatives shall have received a
     certificate of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and
     Chief Financial Officer of the Company, dated the Closing Date, to the
     effect that (i) the condition set forth in subsection (a) of this Section 6
     has been satisfied, (ii) as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date
     the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 1(a)
     hereof are accurate, (iii) as of the Closing Date the obligations of the
     Company to be performed hereunder on or prior thereto have been duly
     performed and (iv) subsequent to the respective dates as of which
     information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, the
     Company and its subsidiaries have not sustained any material loss or
     interference with their respective businesses or properties from fire,
     flood, hurricane, accident or other calamity, whether or not covered by
     insurance, or from any labor dispute or any legal or governmental
     proceeding, and there has not been any material adverse change, or any
     development involving a material adverse change, in the business prospects,
     properties, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), or results of
     operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, except in
     each case as described in or contemplated by the Prospectus.

          (g)  At the Closing Date, the Representatives shall have received a
     certificate executed by an Attorney-in-Fact on behalf of each Selling
     Stockholder, dated the Closing Date, to the effect that the representations
     and warranties of such Selling Stockholder set forth in Section 1(b) hereof
     are accurate, and that as of the Closing Date, the obligations of such
     Selling Stockholder to be performed hereunder on or prior thereto have been
     duly performed.

          (h)  At the time this Agreement is executed and at the Closing Date,
     the Representatives shall have received a letter from Price Waterhouse LLP,
     independent public accountants for the Company, dated, respectively, as of
     the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, addressed to the
     Underwriters and in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives,
     to the effect that: (i) they are independent certified public accountants
     with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Act and stating that
     no response to Item 10 of Form S-3 is required with respect to them; (ii)
     in their opinion, the financial statements and schedules of the Company
     included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and covered by
     their opinion therein (of which the Representatives shall have been
     provided with a manually signed copy) comply as to form in all material
     respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the
     Exchange Act; (iii) they consent to the use of their report concerning the
     Company's consolidated financial statements in the Prospectus and to all
     references to such accountants therein, including their designation as
     experts under the caption "Experts" therein; (iv) on the basis of certain
     specified procedures performed on the unaudited condensed 

                                      -27-

<PAGE>


     consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1996 and the unaudited condensed
     consolidated statements of operations and of cash flows for the nine-month
     periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 included in the Registration 
     Statement and inquiries of officers and other employees of the Company and
     its subsidiaries who have responsibility for financial and accounting 
     matters of the Company, nothing has come to their attention that would 
     cause them to believe that (A) such unaudited consolidated financial 
     statements do not comply as to form in all material respects with the 
     applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the Regulations or 
     (B) any material modifications should be made to such unaudited 
     consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with 
     generally accepted accounting principles; and (v) on the basis of 
     procedures (but not an examination made in accordance with generally 
     accepted auditing standards) consisting of a reading of the latest 
     available unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of
     the Company and its subsidiaries, a reading of the minutes of
     meetings and consents of the shareholders and boards of directors of the
     Company and its subsidiaries and the committees of such boards subsequent
     to March 31, 1996, inquiries of officers and other employees of the Company
     and its subsidiaries who have responsibility for financial and accounting
     matters of the Company and its subsidiaries with respect to transactions
     and events subsequent to March 31, 1996 and other specified procedures and
     inquiries to a date not more than two days prior to the date of such
     letter, nothing has come to their attention that would cause them to
     believe that: (A) with respect to the period subsequent to March 31, 1996
     there were, as of the date of the most recent available monthly
     consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, if
     any, and as of a specified date not more than two days prior to the date of
     such letter, any changes in the capital stock or increases in long-term
     indebtedness of the Company or any decrease in the net current assets or
     shareholders' equity of the Company, in each case as compared with the
     amounts shown in the most recent balance sheet of the Company presented in
     the Prospectus, except for changes or decreases which the Prospectus
     discloses have occurred or may occur or which are set forth in such letter;
     (B) that during the period from March 31, 1996 to the date of the most
     recent available monthly consolidated financial statements of the Company
     and its subsidiaries, if any, and to a specified date not more than two
     days prior to the date of such letter, there was any decrease, as compared
     with the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year, in total revenues,
     operating income from continuing operations or total or per share net
     income, except for decreases which the Prospectus disclose have occurred or
     may occur or which are set forth in such letter; and (C) they have compared
     specific dollar amounts, numbers of shares, percentages of revenues and
     earnings, and other financial information pertaining to the Company and its
     subsidiaries set forth in the Prospectus, which have been specified by the
     Representatives prior to the date of this Agreement, to the extent that
     such amounts, numbers, percentages, and information may be derived from the
     general accounting and financial records of the Company and its
     subsidiaries or from schedules furnished by the Company, and excluding any
     questions requiring an interpretation by legal counsel, with the results
     obtained from the application of specified readings, inquiries, and other
     appropriate procedures (but not an examination made in accordance with
     generally accepted auditing standards) specified by the Representatives and
     set forth in such letter, and found them to be in agreement.

          [(i) At the time this Agreement is executed and at the Closing Date,
     the Representatives shall have received a letter from Deloitte & Touche
     LLP, independent public accountants for The Genix Group, Inc., dated,
     respectively, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date,
     addressed to the Underwriters and in form and substance satisfactory to the
     Representatives, containing statements and information of the type
     ordinarily included in accountants' "comfort letters" to underwriters with
     respect to the financial statements and certain financial and statistical
     information regarding The Genix Group, Inc. contained in the Registration
     Statement and the Prospectus.]

          (j)  Prior to the Closing Date the Company shall have furnished to the
     Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as the
     Representatives may reasonably request.

          (k)  At the Closing Date, the Shares to be sold hereunder shall have
     been approved for listing on the Nasdaq National Market.

          If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not have
     been fulfilled when and as required by this Agreement, or if any of the
     certificates, opinions, written statements or letters furnished to the
     Representatives or to Underwriters' counsel pursuant to this Section 6
     shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and
     substance to the Representatives, all obligations of the Underwriters
     hereunder may be cancelled by the Representatives at, or at any time prior
     to, the Closing Date and the obligations of the Underwriters to purchase
     the Additional Shares may be cancelled by the Representatives at, or at any
     time prior to, the Additional Closing Date.  Notice of such cancellation
     shall be given to the Company in writing, or by telephone, telex or
     telegraph, confirmed in writing.

               7.   INDEMNIFICATION.

               (a)  The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each
     Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within
     the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act,
     against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses
     whatsoever (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and any
     and all expenses whatsoever incurred in investigating, preparing or
     defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim
     whatsoever, and any and all amounts paid in settlement of any claim or
     litigation), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become
     subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such
     losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect
     thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
     untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement
     for the registration of the Shares, as originally filed or any amendment
     thereof, or any related preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus, or in any
     supplement thereto or amendment thereof, or arise out of or are based upon
     the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
     to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, 

                                      -29-

<PAGE>


     in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made, not 
     misleading; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company will not be liable in any
     such case to the extent, but only to the extent, that any such loss, 
     liability, claim, damage or expense arises out of or is based upon any such
     untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged 
     omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written 
     information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter
     through the Representatives expressly for use therein; and PROVIDED
     FURTHER, HOWEVER, that the Company will not be liable to any 
     Underwriter under the indemnity agreement contained herein with respect
     to any preliminary prospectus to the extent that any such loss, 
     liability, claim, damage or expense of such Underwriter results from 
     the fact that such Underwriter sold Shares to a person to whom
     there was not sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of
     such sale, a copy of the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented if the
     Company has previously furnished copies thereof to such Underwriter.  This
     indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company
     may otherwise have including under this Agreement.

               (b)  Each Underwriter severally, and not jointly, agrees to
     indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each Selling Stockholder, each of
     the directors of the Company, each of the officers of the Company who shall
     have signed the Registration Statement, and each other person, if any, who
     controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section
     20(a) of the Exchange Act, against any losses, liabilities, claims, damages
     and expenses whatsoever (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys'
     fees, and any and all expenses whatsoever incurred in investigating,
     preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or
     any claim whatsoever, and any and all amounts paid in settlement of any
     claim or litigation), joint or several, to which they or any of them may
     become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as
     such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in
     respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
     alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration
     Statement for the registration of the Shares, as originally filed or any
     amendment thereof, or any related preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus,
     or in any supplement thereto or amendment thereof, or arise out of or are
     based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material
     fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
     therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent,
     that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises out of or is
     based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
     omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in
     conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on
     behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use
     therein.  This indemnity will be in addition to any liability which any
     Underwriter may otherwise have including under this Agreement.  The Company
     and each Selling Stockholder acknowledge that the statements set forth in
     the last paragraph of the cover page, in the stabilization legends set
     forth as the last two paragraphs on page 2, and in the second paragraph
     under the table of Underwriters under the caption "Underwriting" in the
     Prospectus constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on
     behalf of any 


                                      -30-

<PAGE>


     Underwriter expressly for use in the Registration Statement
     for the registration of the Shares, as originally filed or in any amendment
     thereof or supplement thereto, any related preliminary prospectus or the
     Prospectus or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, as the case
     may be.

               (c)  Each Selling Stockholder, severally and not jointly, agrees
     to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the Company, each of the
     directors of the Company, each of the officers of the Company who shall
     have signed the Registration Statement, and each other person, if any, who
     controls the Company or any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of
     the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, against any losses,
     liabilities, claims, damages and expenses whatsoever (including but not
     limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and any and all expenses whatsoever
     incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation,
     commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and any and all amounts
     paid in settlement of any claim or litigation), joint or several, to which
     they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or
     otherwise, insofar as such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses
     (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue
     statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
     Registration Statement for the registration of the Shares, as originally
     filed or any amendment thereof, or any related preliminary prospectus or
     the Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise
     out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein
     a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
     statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to
     the extent, that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises
     out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue
     statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and
     in conformity with written information relating to such Selling Stockholder
     furnished to the Company by such Selling Stockholder expressly for use
     therein.  This indemnity will be in addition to any liability which any
     Selling Stockholder may otherwise have including under this Agreement.

               (d)  Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under
     subsection (a), (b) or (c) above of notice of the commencement of any
     action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to
     be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify each
     party against whom indemnification is to be sought in writing of the
     commencement thereof (but the failure so to notify an indemnifying party
     shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this
     Section 7 except to the extent that it has been prejudiced in any material
     respect by such failure or from any liability which it may have otherwise
     than under this Section 7).  In case any such action is brought against any
     indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the
     commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to
     participate therein, and to the extent it may elect, by written notice
     delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid
     notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with
     counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party.  Notwithstanding the
     foregoing, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ
     its or their own 

                                      -31-

<PAGE>


     counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of which counsel
     shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties
     unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in
     writing by one of the indemnifying parties in connection with the defense
     of such action in which case such indemnifying party or parties shall be
     responsible for such fees and expenses, (ii) the indemnifying parties shall
     not have employed counsel to have charge of the defense of such action
     within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, or
     (iii) such indemnified party or parties shall have been notified in writing
     by counsel that there may be defenses available to it or them which are
     different from or additional to those available to one or all of the
     indemnifying parties (in which case the indemnifying parties shall not have
     the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified
     party or parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be
     borne by the indemnifying parties.  Anything in this subsection to the
     contrary notwithstanding, an indemnifying party shall not be liable for any
     settlement of any claim or action effected without its written consent;
     PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such consent was not unreasonably withheld.

               8.   CONTRIBUTION.  In order to provide for contribution in
     circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in Section 7 hereof
     is for any reason held to be unavailable or is insufficient to hold
     harmless a party indemnified thereunder, the Company, the Selling
     Stockholders and the Underwriters, severally and not jointly, shall
     contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
     expenses of the nature contemplated by such indemnification provisions
     (including any investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in
     connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or
     proceeding or any claims asserted, but after deducting in the case of
     losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses suffered by the Company
     or any Selling Stockholder any contribution received by the Company or such
     Selling Stockholder, as the case may be, from persons, other than the
     Underwriters, who may also be liable for contribution, including persons
     who control the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or
     Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, officers of the Company who signed the
     Registration Statement and directors of the Company) to which the Company,
     one or more of the Selling Stockholders and one or more of the Underwriters
     may be subject, in such proportions as is appropriate to reflect the
     relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Stockholders on
     the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of
     the Shares or, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law or
     indemnification is not available as a result of the indemnifying party not
     having received notice as provided in Section 7 hereof, in such proportion
     as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to
     above but also the relative fault of the Company, the Selling Stockholders
     and the Underwriters in connection with the statements or omissions which
     resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well
     as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative benefits
     received by the Company and the Selling Stockholders on the one hand and
     the Underwriters on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same
     proportion as the total proceeds from the offering (net of underwriting
     discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by the
     Company and the Selling Stockholders, and the discounts and commissions


                                      -32-

<PAGE>


     received by the Underwriters, respectively, bear to the total price of the
     Shares to investors, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the
     Prospectus.  The relative fault of the Company, the Selling Stockholders
     and of the Underwriters shall be determined by reference to, among other
     things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
     or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
     information supplied by the Company, the Selling Stockholders or the
     Underwriters and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
     information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
     omission.  The Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters agree
     that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
     Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters
     were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of
     allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations
     referred to above.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, (i)
     in no case shall any Underwriter be liable or responsible for any amount in
     excess of the discount applicable to the Shares purchased by such
     Underwriter hereunder, (ii) in no case shall any Selling Stockholder be
     liable or responsible for any amount that exceeds the proceeds from the
     sale in the offering at the initial price to public (as set forth in the
     table on the cover page of the Prospectus) of the Shares sold by such
     Selling Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement and (iii) no person guilty
     of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
     Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty
     of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  For purposes of this Section 8, each
     person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section
     15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act shall have the same
     rights to contribution as such Underwriter, each person, if any, who
     controls a Selling Stockholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act
     or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to
     contribution as such Selling Stockholder, and each person, if any, who
     controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section
     20(a) of the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have
     signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall
     have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case
     to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 8.  Any party entitled to
     contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any
     action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim
     for contribution may be made against another party or parties under this
     Section 8, notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be
     sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not
     relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any
     obligation it or they may have under this Section 8 or otherwise.  No party
     shall be liable for contribution with respect to any action or claim
     settled without its consent; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such consent was not
     unreasonably withheld.

          9.   DEFAULT BY AN UNDERWRITER.

               (a)  If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall default in its or
     their obligation to purchase Firm Shares or Additional Shares hereunder,
     and if the Firm Shares or Additional Shares with respect to which such
     default relates do not (after giving effect 

                                        -33-

<PAGE>

     to arrangements, if any, made by the Representatives pursuant to subsection
     (b) below) exceed in the aggregate 10% of the aggregate principal amount
     of Firm Shares or Additional Shares, as the case may be, which all 
     Underwriters have agreed to purchase hereunder, then such Firm Shares or
     Additional Shares to which the default relates shall be purchased by the
     non-defaulting Underwriters in proportion to the respective proportions
     which the amount of Firm Shares set forth opposite their respective names
     in Schedule I hereto bear to the aggregate amount of Firm Shares set forth
     opposite the names of the non-defaulting Underwriters.

               (b)  In the event that such default relates to more than 10% of
     the Firm Shares or Additional Shares, as the case may be, the
     Representatives may in their discretion arrange for themselves or for
     another party or parties (including any non-defaulting Underwriter or
     Underwriters who so agree) to purchase such Firm Shares or Additional
     Shares, as the case may be, to which such default relates on the terms
     contained herein.  In the event that within five business days after such a
     default the Representatives do not arrange for the purchase of the Firm
     Shares or Additional Shares, as the case may be, to which such default
     relates as provided in this Section 9, this Agreement or, in the case of a
     default with respect to the Additional Shares, the obligations of the
     Underwriters to purchase and of the Company to sell the Additional Shares
     shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of the Company
     or the Selling Stockholders with respect thereto (except in each case 
     as provided in Sections 5, 7(a) and (c) and 8 hereof) or the several 
     Underwriters, but nothing in this Agreement shall relieve a defaulting
     Underwriter or Underwriters of its or their liability, if any,
     to the other several Underwriters and the Company and the Selling
     Stockholders for damages occasioned by its or their default hereunder.

               (c)  In the event that the Firm Shares or Additional Shares to
     which the default relates are to be purchased by the non-defaulting
     Underwriters, or are to be purchased by another party or parties as
     aforesaid, the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to
     postpone the Closing Date or Additional Closing Date, as the case may be,
     for a period not exceeding five business days, in order to effect whatever
     changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or the
     Prospectus or in any other documents and arrangements, and the Company
     agrees to file promptly any amendment or supplement to the Registration
     Statement or the Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, which in the
     Representatives' opinion may thereby be made necessary or advisable.  The
     term Underwriter as used in this Agreement shall include any party
     substituted under this Section 9 with like effect as if it had originally
     been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Firm Shares and
     Additional Shares.

               10.  SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND AGREEMENTS.  All
     representations and warranties, covenants and agreements of the
     Underwriters, the Selling Stockholders and the Company contained in this
     Agreement, including, without limitation, the agreements contained in
     Section 5 hereof, the indemnity agreements contained in Section 7 hereof
     and the contribution agreements contained in Section 8 hereof, shall 

                                      -34-

<PAGE>

     remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any 
     investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any 
     controlling person thereof or by or on behalf of the Company or any of 
     its officers and directors or any Selling Stockholder or any 
     controlling person thereof, and shall survive delivery of and payment
     for the Shares to and by the several Underwriters. 
     The representations contained in Section 1 hereof and the agreements
     contained in Sections 5, 7, 8 and 11(d) hereof shall survive the
     termination of this Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to
     Sections 9 or 11 hereof.

               11.  EFFECTIVE DATE OF AGREEMENT; TERMINATION.

               (a)  This Agreement shall become effective after the occurrence
     of both of, and upon the later of, (i) when you, the Company and the
     Attorneys-in-Fact shall have received notification of the effectiveness of
     the Registration Statement and (ii) the execution of this Agreement.  If
     either the initial public offering price or the purchase price per Share
     has not been agreed upon prior to 5:00 P.M., New York time, on the fifth
     full business day after the Registration Statement shall have become
     effective, this Agreement shall thereupon terminate without liability to
     the Company, the Selling Stockholders or the Underwriters except as herein
     expressly provided.  Until this Agreement becomes effective as aforesaid,
     it may be terminated by the Company by notifying the Representatives and
     the Selling Stockholders or by joint action only of the Selling
     Stockholders directly or an Attorney-in-Fact on behalf of all the Selling
     Stockholders by notifying the Company and the Representatives or by the
     Representatives notifying the Company and the Selling Stockholders. 
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 11 and of
     Sections 1, 5, 7 and 8 hereof shall at all times be in full force and
     effect.

               (b)  The Representatives shall have the right to terminate this
     Agreement at any time prior to the Closing Date or the obligations of the
     Underwriters to purchase the Additional Shares at any time prior to the
     Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, if (A) any domestic or
     international event or act or occurrence has materially disrupted, or in
     the Representatives opinion will in the immediate future materially
     disrupt, securities markets; or (B) trading in any of the Company's
     securities has been suspended by the Commission or the Nasdaq National
     Market or trading on the New York or American Stock Exchange shall have
     been suspended, or minimum or maximum prices for trading shall have been
     fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been
     required, on the New York or American Stock Exchange by the New York or
     American Stock Exchange or by order of the Commission or any other
     governmental authority having jurisdiction; or (C) a banking moratorium has
     been declared by a state or federal authority; or (D) a moratorium in
     foreign exchange trading by major international banks or persons has been
     declared; or (E) any new restriction materially adversely affecting the
     distribution of the Firm Shares or the Additional Shares, as the case may
     be, shall have become effective; or (F)(i) the United States becomes
     engaged in hostilities or there is an escalation of hostilities involving
     the United States or there is a declaration of a national emergency or war
     by the United States or (ii) there shall 

                                      -35-

<PAGE>


     have been a change in political, financial or economic conditions, if 
     the effect of any such event in (i) or (ii) in the Representatives 
     reasonable judgment makes it inadvisable to proceed with the offering,
     sale and delivery of the Firm Shares or the Additional Shares, as the
     case may be, on the terms contemplated by the Prospectus, as then 
     amended or supplemented.

               (c)  Any notice of termination pursuant to this Section 11 shall
     be by telephone, telex, or telegraph, confirmed in writing by letter.

               (d)  If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to any of the
     provisions hereof (otherwise than pursuant to Sections 9(b) or 11(b)
     hereof), or if the sale of the Shares provided for herein is not
     consummated because any condition to the obligations of the several
     Underwriters set forth herein is not satisfied or because of any refusal,
     inability or failure on the part of the Company or any Selling Stockholder
     to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof, the
     Company and the Selling Stockholders jointly and severally agree, subject
     to written demand by the Representatives, to reimburse the Underwriters for
     all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and
     expenses of their counsel), incurred by the several Underwriters in
     connection herewith.

               12.  NOTICE.  All communications hereunder, except as may be
     otherwise specifically provided herein, shall be in writing and, if sent to
     any Underwriter, shall be mailed, delivered, or telexed or telegraphed and

     300 Crescent Court, Suite 200, Dallas, Texas 75201, Attention: Corporate
     Finance; and if sent to the Company or any Selling Stockholder, shall be
     mailed, delivered, or telegraphed and confirmed in writing, in the case of
     the Company, to the address of the Company set forth in the Registration
     Statement, Attention: Secretary, and, in the case of a Selling Stockholder,
     to the Attorneys-in-Fact for such Selling Stockholder.

               13.  PARTIES. The Representatives represent that they are
     authorized to act on behalf of the several Underwriters named in Schedule I
     hereto, and the Company and Selling Stockholders shall be entitled to act
     and rely on any request, notice, consent, waiver or agreement purportedly
     given on behalf of the Underwriters when the same shall have been given by
     the Representatives on such behalf.  This Agreement shall inure solely to
     the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the several Underwriters, the
     Selling Stockholders and the Company and the controlling persons,
     directors, officers, employees and agents referred to in Sections 7 and 8,
     and their respective successors and assigns, and no other person shall have
     or be construed to have any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under
     or in respect of or by virtue of this Agreement or any provision herein
     contained.  The term "successors and assigns" shall not include a
     purchaser, in its capacity as such, of Shares from any of the Underwriters.

                                      [Date]

     As Representatives of the
     several Underwriters named in
     Schedule I to the Underwriting Agreement
c/o Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc.
300 Crescent Court
Suite 200
Dallas, Texas 75201

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     In connection with the offering (the "Offering") of shares of Class A 
Common Stock, par value $.01 per share ("Class A Common Stock"), of 
Affiliated Computer Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), 
pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement (the "Underwriting 
Agreement") to be entered into by and among the Company, certain of its 
stockholders (the "Selling Stockholders") and the underwriters named therein 
(the "Underwriters"), and as described in the Company's Form S-3 Registration 
Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about June 10,
1996, and to induce you to purchase the shares of Class A Common Stock 
offered by the Company and the Selling Stockholders, the undersigned, a 
stockholder of the Company, hereby irrevocably confirms and agrees for your 
benefit as follows:

          (i)  During the period beginning on and including the date hereof and
     continuing to and including September 21, 1996, the undersigned will not,
     without your prior written consent, issue, sell, offer to agree to sell,
     grant any option for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of, directly or
     indirectly, any Covered Securities (defined below), except that the
     undersigned may transfer Covered Securities to a Family Member (defined
     below), a trust solely for the benefit of the undersigned and/or Family
     Members, a corporation wholly owned by the undersigned and/or Family
     Members or a partnership, all interests in which are owned solely by the
     undersigned and/or Family Members, provided that prior to any such transfer
     the transferee will have executed and delivered to the Company and 
     Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc., on behalf of the Underwriters, a lock-up 

                                       -1-

<PAGE>

     agreement substantially in the form of this agreement.  "Covered 
     Securities" means any Stock (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement)
     or other securities which are substantially similar to the Stock (or 
     any securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for 
     Stock or other securities which are substantially similar to the 
     Stock), which Stock and other securities are, on the date hereof, 
     or become, at any time hereafter, registered in the name of, or
     beneficially owned or controlled by, the undersigned.  "Family Members" 
     means the spouse, parents, siblings and lineal descendants of the 
     undersigned or of any such person.

          (ii) The undersigned hereby waives all preemptive rights, rights of
     first refusal and other similar rights under any agreement or arrangement
     with respect to the offering and sale of the Shares in the Offering and
     agrees not to include any Stock or other securities in the Offering, except
     as contemplated in the Underwriting Agreement, and, during the period
     specified in clause (i) above, not to request or otherwise require under
     any agreement or arrangement that any Stock or other Covered Securities be
     registered under the Securities Act of 1933, either in connection with the
     Offering or otherwise.

          (iii)     The undersigned has not taken and will not take, directly or
     indirectly, any action which constitutes, or is intended or might
     reasonably be expected to result in, stabilization or manipulation of the
     price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of
     the Shares, or which constitutes a bid for or purchase, of, or an attempt
     to induce any person to purchase, the Shares or any related securities that
     is prohibited by Rule 10b-6 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
     amended.

     The agreements set forth herein will terminate on August 1, 1996, unless
the Underwriting Agreement has been executed and delivered by the parties
thereto and the closings for any purchases of Shares by the Underwriters
pursuant thereto have occurred prior to such date.  Neither the Company nor any
Underwriter makes any representations as to whether the Offering will be
completed.


                                  Very truly yours,

                             SALE OF STOCK; CLOSING


                    Section 2.1.  PURCHASE AND SALE.  On the basis of the

outstanding Shares.  In payment for such Shares, simultaneously with the

<PAGE>

have 20 days to review the Closing Date Balance Sheet, together with the 
workpapers used in the preparation thereof.  Seller and its authorized 
representatives shall have full access to all relevant books and records and 
employees of the Company and the Subsidiaries to the extent required to 
complete their review of the Closing Date Balance Sheet.  Seller may dispute 
items reflected on the Closing Date Balance Sheet only on the basis that such 
amounts were not arrived at in accordance with the consistent application of 
accounting principles used in the preparation of the Company Financial 
Statements.  Unless Seller delivers written notice to Buyer on or prior to 
the 20th day after Seller's receipt of the Closing Date Balance Sheet 
specifying in reasonable detail all disputed items and the basis therefor, 
Seller shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the Closing Date 
Balance Sheet.  If Seller so notifies Buyer of its objection to the Closing 
Date Balance Sheet, Buyer and Seller shall, within 30 days following such 
notice (the "Resolution Period"), attempt to resolve their differences and 
any resolution by them as to any disputed amounts shall be final, binding and 
conclusive.

                    (c)  If at the conclusion of the Resolution Period there
remain amounts in dispute pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 2.3, then
all amounts remaining in dispute shall be submitted to a firm of nationally
recognized independent



                                    -7-


<PAGE>

public accountants who shall not have had a material relationship with 
Seller, Buyer or any of their respective affiliates within the past two years 
(the "Neutral Auditors") and who shall be selected by Seller and Buyer within 
10 days after the expiration of the Resolution Period.  Each party agrees to 
execute, if requested by the Neutral Auditors, a reasonable engagement 
letter.  All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed 
by the Neutral Auditors shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer.  The 
Neutral Auditors shall act as an arbitrator to determine, based solely on 
presentations by Seller and Buyer, and not by independent review, only those 
issues still in dispute.  The Neutral Auditors' determination shall be made 
within 30 days of their selection, shall be set forth in a written statement 
delivered to Seller and Buyer and shall be final, binding and conclusive.  
The term "Adjusted Closing Date Balance Sheet", as hereinafter used, shall

                                   ARTICLE IV

                   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF BUYER


                   Buyer hereby represents and warrants to Seller as follows:

                    Section 4.1.  INCORPORATION; AUTHORIZATION; ETC.  Buyer is a
corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Delaware.  Buyer has full corporate power to execute and
deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate
the transactions contemplated hereby.  The execution and delivery of this
Agreement, the performance of Buyer's obligations hereunder and the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized by
the Board of Directors of Buyer, and no other corporate proceedings or actions
on the part of Buyer, its Board  



                                   -30-

<PAGE>

of Directors or stockholders are necessary therefor.  The execution, delivery 
and performance of this Agreement will not (i) violate any provision of the 
certificate of incorporation or By-laws of Buyer, (ii) violate any provision 
of, or be an event that is (or with the passage of time will result in) a 
violation of, or result in the acceleration of or entitle any party to 
accelerate (whether after the giving of notice or lapse of time or both) any 
obligation under, or result in the imposition of any lien upon or the creation
of a security interest in any of Buyer's assets or properties pursuant to, 
any mortgage, lien, lease, agreement, instrument, order, arbitration award, 
judgment or decree to which Buyer is a party or by which Buyer is bound, or 
(iii) violate or conflict with any other restriction of any kind or character 
to which Buyer is subject, that, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), would,
individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect or would 
prevent the Stock Purchase.  This Agreement has been duly executed and 
delivered by Buyer, and, assuming the due execution hereof by Seller, this 
Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Buyer, 
enforceable against Buyer in accordance with its terms.

                    Section 4.2.  BROKERS, FINDERS, ETC.  Buyer has not
employed, and is not subject to the valid claim of, any broker, finder,
consultant or other intermediary in connection



                                   -31-


<PAGE>

with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement who might be entitled to 
a fee or commission from Seller in connection with such transactions.

                    Section 4.3.  LICENSES, APPROVALS, OTHER AUTHORIZATIONS,
CONSENTS, REPORTS, ETC.  Schedule 4.3(a) contains a list of all registrations,
filings, applications, notices, consents, approvals, orders, qualifications or
waivers required to be made, filed, given or obtained by Buyer or any of its
affiliates with, to or from any persons or governmental authorities or private
agencies in connection with the consummation of the Stock Purchase except for
those (i) that become applicable solely as a result of the specific regulatory
status of Seller, the Company or the Subsidiaries or (ii) the failure to make,
file, give or obtain which would not, individually or in the aggregate, either
have a Material Adverse Effect or prevent the consummation of the Stock
Purchase.

                    Section 4.4.  ACQUISITION OF SHARES FOR INVESTMENT.  Buyer
has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the purchase of the Shares.  Buyer
confirms that Seller has made available to Buyer the opportunity to ask
questions of the officers and management employees of the Company and to acquire
additional information about the business and financial condition of



                                   -32-


<PAGE>

the Company and each of the Subsidiaries.  Buyer is acquiring the Shares for 
investment and not with a view toward or for sale in connection with any 
distribution thereof, or with any present intention of distributing or selling
the Shares.  Buyer agrees that the Shares may not be sold, transferred, offered
for sale, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of without registration 
under the Securities Act of 1933 except pursuant to an exemption from such 
registration available under such Act, to the extent applicable.

                    Section 4.5.  FINANCIAL CAPABILITY.  (a)  Buyer has
furnished to Seller the consolidated statement of financial position of Buyer
and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 1995 and June 30, 1994 and the related
consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the
years then ended together with the notes thereto and the unaudited consolidated
statement of financial position of Buyer and its subsidiaries as of March 31,
1996 and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and
cash flows for the nine-month period then ended (collectively, the "Buyer
Financial Statements") and, in the case of the audited statements, the related
opinion of independent auditor.  The Buyer Financial Statements present fairly
the financial position and results of operation of Buyer and its subsidiaries
for the periods or as of the dates set forth therein, in each



                                   -33-


<PAGE>

case in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently 
applied during the periods involved (except as otherwise indicated therein).  
Except as disclosed in Schedule 4.5(a) hereto, from June 30, 1995:  (i) there 
has been no Material Adverse Effect except for any change resulting from general
economic, financial or market conditions and for any change resulting from 
conditions or circumstances generally affecting the business in which Buyer and
its subsidiaries operate, and (ii) there has been no physical damage, 
destruction or loss that would have a Material Adverse Effect.

                    (b)  Buyer will have available as of the Closing Date, from
its immediately available cash, funds sufficient to pay the Initial Purchase
Price, provided that a banking moratorium has not been declared by a state or
federal authority, nor has there been a declaration of a national emergency or
war.

                    Section 4.6.  NO OUTSIDE RELIANCE.  Buyer has not relied and
is not relying upon any statement or representation not made in this Agreement
or a Schedule hereto or any certificate or document required to be provided by
Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

                                    ARTICLE V

                        COVENANTS OF SELLER AND BUYER


                    Section 5.1.  INVESTIGATION OF BUSINESS; ACCESS TO
PROPERTIES AND RECORDS.  (a)  After the date hereof, Seller shall cause the
Company and the Subsidiaries to afford to representatives of Buyer reasonable
access, subject to applicable law, to their respective offices, plants,
properties, books and records during normal business hours, in order that Buyer
may make such investigations as it reasonably desires of the affairs of the
Company and the Subsidiaries; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such investigation shall
not unreasonably disrupt the personnel and operations of any of Seller, the
Company or the Subsidiaries.  If, in the course of any investigation pursuant to
this Section 5.1, Buyer has actual knowledge of any breach of any representation
or warranty contained in this Agreement or any circumstance or condition that
upon Closing would constitute such a breach, Buyer covenants that it will
promptly so inform Seller.

                    (b)  Any information provided to the parties or their
representatives pursuant to this Agreement shall be held in accordance with, 
and shall be subject to the terms of, the Confidentiality Agreement dated 
February 21, 1996 by and between Smith Barney Inc. on behalf of MCN Corporation



                                   -35-


<PAGE>

and Buyer, as supplemented by the Supplemental Confidentiality Agreement, 
dated as of May 8, 1996, by and between MCN Corporation and Buyer 
(collectively, the "Confidentiality Agreement"), which Confidentiality 
Agreement shall survive the execution and termination of this Agreement.

                    (c)  Buyer agrees to (i) hold all of the books and records
of the Company and the Subsidiaries existing on the Closing Date and not to
destroy or dispose of any thereof for a period of five (5) years from the
Closing Date or such longer time as may be required by law, and thereafter, if
it desires to destroy or dispose of such books and records, to offer first in
writing at least 60 days prior to such destruction or disposition to surrender
them to Seller and (ii) following the Closing Date to afford Seller, its
accountants and counsel, during normal business hours, upon reasonable request,
full access to such books, records and other data and to the employees of the
Company and any of the Subsidiaries to the extent that such access may be
requested for any legitimate purpose at no cost to Seller (other than for
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses); provided, however, that nothing herein shall
limit any of Seller's rights of discovery.  Buyer shall have the same rights,
and Seller the same obligations, as are set forth above in this Section 5.1(c)
with respect to any non-privileged records of Seller pertaining to the Company
and the Subsidiaries that are retained by



                                   -36-


<PAGE>

Seller, with the exception of tax returns relating to taxes that, pursuant to 
Article VI, are not the responsibility of Buyer; provided, however, that nothing
herein shall limit any of Buyer's rights of discovery.

                    Section 5.2.  REASONABLE BEST EFFORTS; OBTAINING CONSENTS. 
(a)  Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, Seller and Buyer each
agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all
actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or 
advisable to consummate and make effective as promptly as practicable the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to cooperate with the other in
connection with the foregoing, including using its reasonable best efforts 
(i) to obtain all necessary waivers, consents and approvals from other parties
to material loan agreements, leases and other contracts, including but not 
limited to those set forth in any of the Schedules hereto (it being understood
that the failure to obtain any such waiver, consent or approval shall not 
constitute the failure of a condition to the obligation of the parties hereto
to consummate the transactions specified herein unless specifically provided 
for in Section 7.2 or Section 8.2), (ii) to obtain all consents, approvals and
authorizations that are required to be obtained under any federal, state, local
or foreign law or regulation, (iii) to lift or rescind any injunction or 
restraining order or other



                                   -37-


<PAGE>

order adversely affecting the ability of the parties hereto to consummate the 
transactions contemplated hereby, (iv) to effect all necessary registrations 
and filings including, but not limited to, filings under the HSR Act and 
submissions of information requested by governmental authorities, and (v) to 
fulfill all conditions to this Agreement.  Seller and Buyer further covenant 
and agree, with respect to a threatened or pending preliminary or permanent 
injunction or other order, decree or ruling or statute, rule, regulation or 
executive order that would adversely affect the ability of the parties hereto 
to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, to use their respective 
reasonable best efforts to prevent the entry, enactment or promulgation 
thereof, as the case may be.

                    (b)  Either party hereto shall promptly inform the other of
any material communication from the United States Federal Trade Commission, the
Department of Justice or any other domestic or foreign government or 
governmental or multinational authority regarding any of the transactions
contemplated hereby.  If either party or any affiliate thereof receives a
request for additional information or documentary material from any such
government or authority with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby,
then such party or affiliate will endeavor in good faith to make, or cause to be



                                   -38-


<PAGE>

made, as soon as reasonably practicable and after consultation with the other
party, an appropriate response in compliance with such request.  Each party will
advise the other promptly in respect of any understandings, undertakings or
agreements (oral or written) which such party proposes to make or enter into
with the Federal Trade Commission, the Department of Justice or any other
domestic or foreign government or governmental or multinational authority in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

                    Section 5.3.  FURTHER ASSURANCES.  Seller and Buyer agree
that, from time to time, whether before, at or after the Closing Date, each of
them will execute and deliver such further instruments of conveyance and
transfer and take such other action as may be necessary to carry out the
purposes and intents of this Agreement.

                    Section 5.4.  CONDUCT OF BUSINESS.  From the date hereof
through the Closing, except as disclosed on Schedule 5.4 hereto or otherwise
provided for in, or contemplated by, this Agreement, or except as consented to
or approved by Buyer in writing (which consent or approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), Seller covenants and agrees that:



                                   -39-


<PAGE>

                    (a)  each of the Company and the Subsidiaries shall operate
its business in the ordinary and usual course in all material respects in
accordance with past practices;

                    (b)  none of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries shall
issue, sell or agree to issue or sell (i) any shares of its capital stock, or
(ii) any securities convertible into, or options with respect to, or warrants to
purchase or rights to subscribe for, any shares of its capital stock;

                    (c)  except in the ordinary course of business or as
required by law and except for contractual obligations or other understandings
or arrangements disclosed on Schedule 5.4, none of the Company or any of the
Subsidiaries shall (i) increase in any manner the base compensation of, or enter
into any new bonus or incentive agreement or arrangement with, any of its
directors, officers or other employees; (ii) pay or agree to pay any pension,
retirement allowance or other employee benefit to any such director, officer or
employee, whether past or present; (iii) enter into any new employment,
severance, consulting, or other compensation agreement with any existing
director, officer or employee; (iv) commit itself to any additional pension,
profit-sharing, deferred compensation, group insurance, severance pay,
retirement or other employee benefit plan, fund or similar arrangement or amend
or commit itself to amend any of such  



                                   -40-



<PAGE>

plans, funds or similar arrangements in existence on the date hereof; or 
(v) waive any standstill or confidentiality rights of Seller or any of its 
affiliates, insofar as they relate to the Company.

                    (d)  except in the ordinary course of business or as
otherwise specifically provided for in or contemplated by this Agreement, none
of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries shall (i) sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of any of its material assets, (ii) create or permit to exist any new
material security interest, lien or encumbrance on its properties or assets,
(iii) enter into any joint venture, partnership or other similar arrangement or
form any other new material arrangement for the conduct of its business, or 
(iv) purchase any assets or securities of any person; and

                    (e)  none of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries shall
agree to take any action prohibited by this Section 5.4.

                    Section 5.5.  PRESERVATION OF BUSINESS.  Subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, Seller shall, and shall cause the
Company and the Subsidiaries to, use reasonable efforts to preserve the
businesses of the Company and the Subsidiaries intact, keep available to the
Company, Subsidiaries and Buyer the services of the employees of the Company and
Subsidiaries, preserve the good will of customers



                                   -41-


<PAGE>

and others having business relations with the Company or any of the 
Subsidiaries, and maintain consistent with past practice and good business 
judgment insurance in full force and effect with responsible companies, 
comparable in amount to that in effect on the date of this Agreement, subject 
to the availability thereof at costs not materially greater than at present.

                    Section 5.6.  PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS.  Each party hereto will
consult with the other before issuing, or permitting any agent or affiliate to
issue, any press releases or otherwise making or permitting any agent or
affiliate to make, any public statements with respect to this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby.  Each such party  agrees that this Agreement,
including the Schedules hereto, and the specific terms and provisions thereof
shall be kept confidential except as may otherwise be required by law or agreed
to in writing by the parties hereto, which agreement shall not be unreasonably
withheld.

                    Section 5.7.  NON-SOLICITATION.  (a)  If this agreement is
terminated (except for a termination pursuant to Section 10.1(b) hereof where
the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
results from the willful breach by Seller of a representation, warranty or
covenant contained herein), Buyer will not, for a period of



                                   -42-


<PAGE>

three years thereafter, without the prior written approval of Seller, 
directly or indirectly, solicit, encourage, entice or induce any person who 
is an employee of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries at the date hereof 
or at any time hereafter that precedes such termination, to terminate his or 
her employment with the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, except in 
response to a general solicitation of employment.  Buyer agrees that any 
remedy at law for any breach by it of this Section 5.7 would be inadequate, 
and Seller would be entitled to injunctive relief in such a case.  If it is 
ever held that the restriction placed on Buyer by this Section 5.7 is too 
onerous and is not necessary for the protection of Seller, Buyer agrees that 
any court of competent jurisdiction may impose lesser restrictions which such 
court may consider to be necessary or appropriate to properly protect Seller.

                    (b)  Seller will not, for a period of three years after the
Closing Date, without the prior written approval of Buyer, directly or
indirectly solicit, encourage, entice or induce any person who is an employee of
the Company or any of the Subsidiaries at the date hereof or at any time
hereafter that precedes such termination, to terminate his or her employment
with the Company or the Subsidiaries except in response to a general
solicitation of employment.

<PAGE>

                    Section 5.8.  INTERCOMPANY ACCOUNTS; GUARANTIES.  (a) 
Effective as of the Closing, all intercompany receivables or payables and loans
then existing between Seller or any affiliate of Seller (including without
limitation MCN Corporation) other than the Company and the Subsidiaries (the
"Other Affiliates"), on the one hand, and the Company or any of the
Subsidiaries, on the other hand, shall be settled by way of capital contribution
(with respect to intercompany payables or loans due to Seller or any Other
Affiliate) or by way of dividend in kind (with respect to receivables of the
Company and the Subsidiaries owed by Seller or any Other Affiliate); provided,
however, that receivables or payables related to the provision by the Company or
any Subsidiary of data processing, computer operations or related services to
Seller or any Other Affiliate shall not be subject to the provisions of this
Section 5.8(a), but shall be governed by the appropriate agreements or
understandings related to such services.

                    (b)  Buyer shall use its best efforts to cause itself or one
or more of its affiliates to be substituted in all respects for Seller or any
Other Affiliate, effective as of the Closing, in respect of all obligations of
Seller and any Other Affiliate under each of the guaranties, letters of credit
and letters of comfort obtained by Seller or any Other Affiliate or any
affiliates thereof for the benefit of the



                                   -44-


<PAGE>

Company or any of the Subsidiaries, which guaranties, letters of credit and 
letters of comfort are set forth in Schedule 5.8(b) (the "Guaranties").  If 
Buyer is unable to effect such a substitution with respect to any Guaranty 
after using its commercially reasonable efforts to do so, Buyer shall obtain 
letters of credit, on terms and from financial institutions reasonably 
satisfactory to Seller, with respect to the obligations covered by each of 
the Guaranties for which Buyer does not effect such substitution.  As a 
result of the substitution contemplated by the first sentence of this Section 
5.8(b) and/or the letter or letters of credit contemplated by the second 
sentence hereof, Seller and the Other Affiliates shall from and after the 
Closing cease to have any obligation whatsoever arising from or in connection 
with the Guaranties except for obligations, if any, for which Seller or the 
appropriate Other Affiliate will be fully indemnified pursuant to a letter of 
credit obtained by Buyer.  Nothing herein shall limit Buyer's rights of 
indemnification hereunder.

                    Section 5.9.  CERTAIN BENEFIT PLANS.  Seller has previously
made available to Buyer true and complete copies of the Post-Retirement Medical
Plan and the Severance Allowance Plan.  From and after the Closing Date and
until the first anniversary thereof, Buyer agrees to cause the Company and the
Subsidiaries to maintain the Post-Retirement Medical Plan and the Severance 



                                   -45-


<PAGE>

Allowance Plan (with respect to persons who are Company employees as of the date
hereof) in full force and effect and without any reduction of benefits or other
amendment or modification that has an adverse effect on benefits (except to the
extent necessary to comply with applicable law).

                    Section 5.10.  USE OF "MCN" NAME.  Buyer covenants that,
from and after the Closing Date, none of the Company, any of the Subsidiaries,
Buyer or any affiliate of Buyer shall employ the term "MCN", or a confusingly
similar term, as the name of any business entity operating in the computer
services outsourcing or any similar business or in connection with any product
or service to be offered as part of such business.

                    Section 5.11.  CERTAIN PAYMENTS BY SELLER.  The parties
agree that the payments specified in Schedule 5.11 shall be made upon the
occurrence of the events specified therein.


                                   ARTICLE VI

                                   TAX MATTERS


                    Section 6.1.  TAX RETURNS OF THE COMPANY AND THE
SUBSIDIARIES.  Seller represents and warrants that all material Tax Returns
required to be filed for taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date
by the Company or the Subsidiaries have been or will be filed in accordance with
all applicable



                                   -46-

laws, and all Taxes required to be shown as due on such Returns have been or 
will be paid.

                    Section 6.2.  TAX INDEMNIFICATION BY SELLER.  Except as
otherwise provided in Section 6.3, Seller shall be liable for, and shall hold
Buyer, its affiliates, the Company and the Subsidiaries harmless from and
against (a) any and all Taxes for any taxable period ending on or before the
Closing Date due or payable, now or in the future, by the Company or the
Subsidiaries or Buyer or its affiliates with respect to the Company or the
Subsidiaries, except to the extent of any reserves or accruals for Taxes for
taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date reflected on the Adjusted
Closing Date Balance Sheet (excluding Taxes attributable to an election made
pursuant to Section 338(h)(10) of the Code); and (b) any Taxes of any Person
(other than Buyer and its affiliates) for which the Company or the Subsidiaries
may be held liable pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any
similar provision under state or local law, as transferee or successor, by
contract or otherwise, with respect to taxable periods beginning before the
Closing Date.

6.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company and the Subsidiaries shall be
liable for, and Buyer shall hold Seller harmless from and against, (i) any and
all Taxes for any

Company or any Subsidiary or by Seller with respect to the Company or any 
Subsidiary, (ii) any Tax of the Company or any Subsidiary for any taxable

other accrual therefor on the Adjusted Closing Date Balance Sheet, and (iii) 
any and all Taxes not incurred in the ordinary course of business 
attributable to the acts or omissions not contemplated herein of Buyer, 
Buyer's affiliates, the Company or any Subsidiary after the Closing on the 
Closing Date.

                    Section 6.4.  SECTION 338(h)(10) ELECTION.  Seller agrees,
if so directed by Buyer, to join with Buyer in making timely, effective
elections under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any corresponding elections
under state, local or foreign tax law) (collectively, "Section 338(h)(10)
Elections") with respect to the purchase and sale of the stock of the Company
hereunder.  Provided that it has made a Section 338(h)(10) Election with respect
to the Company, Buyer may choose to make such election for any one or more of
the Subsidiaries.  Seller



                                   -48-


<PAGE>

will pay timely any Taxes, including any liability of the Company and its 
Subsidiaries for taxes resulting from the application to it of Treasury 
Regulation 1.338(h)(10)-1(f)(5), attributable to the making of the Section 
338(h)(10) Election and will indemnify Buyer, the Company and its 
Subsidiaries against any Loss arising out of any failure to pay such Tax. 
Seller will pay any state, local or foreign Tax (and indemnify Buyer, the 
Company and its Subsidiaries against any Loss arising out of any failure to 
pay such Tax) attributable to an election under state, local or foreign law 
similar to the election available under Section 338(g) of the Code (or which 
results from the making of an election under Section 338(g) of the Code) with 
respect to the purchase and sale of the stock of the Company and its 
Subsidiaries hereunder.  Buyer will be responsible for completing and filing 
all federal and state tax forms necessary to make the Section 338(h)(10) 
Elections ("Necessary Forms").  In the event such a form is required to be 
signed by Seller, or attached to a tax return prepared and filed by Seller, 
Seller will sign and file (or return to Buyer as appropriate) copies of the 
appropriate forms and schedules or return, as appropriate, in a timely manner 
and provide assurance to Buyer that it has done so.  Seller agrees to 
indemnify Buyer, Company and the Subsidiaries for all Tax Benefits (excluding 
any increase in the tax basis of the stock of the Company or Subsidiaries) 
that Buyer, Company and the Subsidiaries



                                   -49-


<PAGE>

do not realize as a result of any act requested of Seller by Buyer in writing 
and not performed by Seller on a timely basis and which prevents Buyer, the 
Company or the Subsidiaries from receiving the Tax Benefits they would have 
received had Section 338(h)(10) Elections been effectively made. Seller shall 
pay Buyer the present value of such lost Tax Benefits in a lump sum within 30 
days of a final determination that the Section 338(h)(10) Elections are not 
valid as a result of Seller's failure to timely perform an act requested of 
it in writing by Buyer, which payment shall be determined by calculating such 
Tax Benefits for the 15-year period immediately following the Closing Date 
and using a 7% discount factor to determine present value.

                    At least 60 days prior to the filing date of such election,
Buyer will submit a copy of the Necessary Forms for Seller to review.  Unless
Seller delivers written notice to Buyer on or prior to the 20th day after the
receipt of the Necessary Forms, specifying in reasonable detail all disputed
items and the basis therefor, Seller shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed
to the Necessary Forms.  Buyer and Seller will make reasonable and good faith
attempts to resolve any disputed items.  In the event there remains any dispute,
Buyer and Seller will follow resolution procedures similar to those set forth in
Section 2.3(c).

     Section 6.5.  ALLOCATION OF CERTAIN INCOME TAXES.  Except as
otherwise provided in Section 6.3, any Taxes based on income, gross receipts,
gain or similar items ("Income Taxes") for a taxable period beginning before the
Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date (a "Straddle Period") shall be
apportioned between Seller and Buyer based on the actual operations of the
Company and the Subsidiaries, as the case may be, during the portion of such
period ending on the Closing Date and the portion of such period beginning on
the day following the Closing Date, and for purposes of the provisions of
Sections 6.2, 6.3 and 6.7, each portion of such period shall be deemed to be a
taxable period (whether or not it is in fact a taxable period).  All Taxes other
than Income Taxes relating to a Straddle Period shall be apportioned between
Buyer and Seller based on the number of days of the assessment period occurring
on and before the Closing Date, and the number of days during such period
occurring after the Closing Date, and for purposes of Sections 6.2, 6.3 and 6.7,
each portion of such period shall be deemed to be a taxable period (whether or
not it is in fact a taxable period).

     To the extent estimated Taxes have been paid prior to the
Closing Date or are accrued on the Adjusted Closing Date Balance Sheet with
respect to a Straddle Period, Seller's liability with respect thereto shall be
reduced by that amount; provided that if such payment or accrual of Taxes
exceeds

<PAGE>

Seller's liability as calculated pursuant to this Section 6.5, Buyer shall 
pay Seller the amount of such excess within 30 days after the final due date 
of the applicable Straddle Period Tax Returns.

     Seller shall pay to Buyer the unpaid portion of Taxes as calculated and 
allocated to Seller pursuant to this Section 6.5 within 30 days of receipt of 
written notice from Buyer.

     Section 6.6.  FILING RESPONSIBILITY.  (a)  Subject to Buyer's review and 
reasonable approval of those Returns with respect to which Buyer has a 
continuing interest in the pre-Closing tax attributes or history of the 
Company or the Subsidiaries, Seller shall prepare and file or shall cause the 
Company to prepare and file all Returns with respect to (i) the business or 
assets of the Company and each Subsidiary required to be filed on or before 
the Closing Date, (ii) any consolidated, combined, or unitary Return that 
includes (or is required to include) Tax items of both Seller or any Other 
Affiliate, on the one hand, and the Company or the Subsidiaries, on the other 
hand and (iii) any consolidated, combined, unitary or separate Company Return 
based on a Tax year that ends on or prior to the Closing Date.

     (b)  Buyer shall prepare and file, or shall cause the

filing responsibility pursuant to Section 6.6(a).

     Section 6.7.  REFUNDS AND CARRYBACKS.  (a)  Seller shall be entitled to 
any refunds or credits of Taxes attributable to or arising in taxable periods 
ending on or before the Closing Date (plus any interest received with respect 
thereto from the applicable governmental authority), except to the extent 
reflected on the Adjusted Closing Date Balance Sheet.

     (b)  Buyer, the Company and the Subsidiaries shall be entitled to any 
refunds or credits of Taxes of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries 
attributable to or arising in taxable periods beginning after the Closing 
Date, and to any other refunds or credits of Taxes to the extent reflected on 
the Adjusted Closing Date Balance Sheet (plus any interest received with 
respect thereto from the applicable governmental authority).

     (c)  Buyer shall cause the Company and the Subsidiaries promptly to 
forward to Seller any refunds or credits due Seller (pursuant to the terms of 
this Article VI) after receipt thereof, and Seller shall promptly forward to 
Buyer or pay any refunds or credits due Buyer (pursuant to the terms of this 
Article VI) after receipt thereof (plus any interest received with respect 
thereto from the applicable governmental authority).

     (d)  Notwithstanding anything contained herein, Buyer, the Company and 
each Subsidiary agree that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall carry 
back any item of loss, deduction or credit which arises in any taxable period 
ending after the Closing Date ("Subsequent Loss") into any taxable period 
ending on or before the Closing Date with respect to any Return that includes 
any member (other than the Company or the Subsidiaries) of the affiliated 
group of which MCN Corporation, or any successor thereto, is the common 
parent.  If the Company or any Subsidiary does carry back a Subsequent Loss 
into any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date with respect to 
a Return that includes any member (other than the Company or the Subsidiaries)
of the affiliated group of which MCN Corporation, or any successor thereto, is
the common parent, Seller shall be entitled to any Tax Benefit, as defined in 
Section 6.12(c), or refund of Taxes realized as a result thereof.

                                   -54-


<PAGE>

or if later within three months after the Closing Date all information as 
Seller shall reasonably request in such workpaper packages.

     (b)  Except as provided in subsection (a) above, as soon as
practicable, but in any event within 30 days after a party's request in the case
of documents, records, or files in the control or possession of the other party,
from and after the Closing Date, the party to whom the request is directed shall
provide the requesting party with such cooperation and shall deliver to the
requesting party such information and data concerning the pre-Closing operations
of the Company and the Subsidiaries and make available such knowledgeable
employees of the Company and the Subsidiaries or Seller, as the case may be, as
may be reasonably requested, including providing the information and data
required for Seller's customary tax and accounting questionnaires, in order to
enable the parties to complete and file all Returns which they may be required
to file with respect to the operations and business of the Company and the
Subsidiaries or to respond to audits by any taxing authorities with respect to
such operations and to otherwise enable the parties to satisfy their internal
accounting, tax and other legitimate requirements.  Such cooperation and
information shall include without limitation (i) granting to an officer of 



                                   -55-

accompanying schedules and related workpapers, documents relating to rulings or
other determinations by taxing authorities, and records concerning the ownership
and tax basis of property, which the parties, the Company or the Subsidiaries
may possess.  The parties, the Company and the Subsidiaries shall make their
employees and facilities available on a mutually convenient basis to provide
explanation of any documents or information provided hereunder.

     (c)  Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company and each of the Subsidiaries
to retain all Returns, books and records (including computer files) of, or 
with respect to the activities of, the Company and the Subsidiaries for all 
taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date for all periods during 
which the Returns are subject to audit by any taxing authority.

<PAGE>

     (d)  Whenever any taxing authority asserts a claim, makes an assessment, 
or otherwise disputes (a "Dispute") the amount of Taxes for which Seller or 
any Other Affiliate is liable, Buyer shall promptly inform Seller, and Seller 
shall, to the extent any proceedings or determinations with respect to such 
Dispute affect the amount of Taxes for which Seller or any Other Affiliate is 
liable, have the right to control, at its own expense, any resulting meetings,
conferences or proceedings and to determine whether and when to settle such 
Dispute.

     Section 6.9.  PURCHASE PRICE.  Buyer and Seller agree that the 
consideration provided for pursuant to this Agreement is being paid solely to 
acquire the Shares and neither party will (or will permit any affiliate to) 
report or treat any part of such consideration as allocable to anything other 
than payment for the Shares.

     Section 6.10.  INTEREST.  If any payment payable by one party to another 
pursuant to this Article VI is not made on the due date as provided hereunder,
any such payment to the extent not paid shall bear interest at the interest 
rate applicable to large corporate underpayments pursuant to Section 6621(c) 
of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

<PAGE>

                         (i)  the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or
                    warranty made by Seller in this Agreement; or
                    
                        (ii)  the breach or inaccuracy of any covenant or

                         (i)  the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or
                    warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement;
                    
                        (ii)  the breach or inaccuracy of any covenant or

                    persons or entities that are affiliates of Seller as of the
                    date hereof) which is based solely on actions taken or
                    omissions by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries on or
                    after the Closing Date.

                    (c)  Any party seeking indemnification under this Article IX
(an "Indemnified Party") shall give each party



                                   -65-


<PAGE>

from whom indemnification is being sought (each, an "Indemnifying Party") 
written notice of any matter which such Indemnified Party has determined has 
given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, 
within 15 days of such determination, stating the amount of the Loss, if 
known, and method of computation thereof, providing reasonable detail with 
respect thereto and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement
in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises; 
provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release
the Indemnifying Party from any of the obligations under this Article IX except
to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure
or as otherwise provided in Section 9.2(e).

                    (d)  The obligations and liabilities of an Indemnifying
Party under this Article IX with respect to Losses arising from claims of any
third party which are subject to the indemnification provided for in this
Article IX ("Third Party Claims") shall be governed by and contingent upon the

receive notice of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall give the
Indemnifying Party written



                                   -66-


<PAGE>

notice of such Third Party Claim within 15 days of the receipt by the 
Indemnified Party of such notice; provided, however, that the failure to 
provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of the 
obligations under this Article IX except to the extent the Indemnifying Party 
is materially prejudiced by such failure or as otherwise provided in Section 
9.2(e).  The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and control the 
defense of such Third Party Claim at its expense and through counsel of its 
choice if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Party 
within ten Business Days of the receipt of such notice from the Indemnified 
Party; provided, however, that if there exists or is reasonably likely to 
exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the judgment 
of the Indemnified Party for the same counsel to represent both the 
Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party 
shall be entitled to retain its own counsel, in each jurisdiction for which 
the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required, at the expense of the 
Indemnifying Party.  In the event the Indemnifying Party exercises the right 
to undertake any such defense against any such Third Party Claim as provided 
above, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in

records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party's possession or 
under the Indemnified Party's control relating thereto as is reasonably 
required by the Indemnifying Party.  Similarly, in the event the Indemnified 
Party is, directly or indirectly, conducting the defense against any such 
Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the 
Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified 
Party, at the Indemnifying Party's expense, all such witnesses, records,

Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an 
unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the 
Indemnified Party of a written release from all liability in respect of such 
Third Party Claim or (ii) settle or compromise any Third Party Claim in any 
manner that may adversely affect the Indemnified Party other than as a result 
of money damages or other money payments (so long as the Indemnifying Party 
has acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify).  Similarly, no 
Third Party Claim which is being defended by the Indemnifying Party shall be 
settled by

(or the expiration of the relevant survival period pursuant to Section 9.1), the
written notice specified in Section 9.2(c) has been delivered to the party
alleged to have breached a representation, warranty or covenant contained in
this Agreement, no action or proceeding may be brought with respect to any such
representation or warranty or with respect to any such covenant (other than such
a covenant which by its terms contemplates performance on or after the first
anniversary of the Closing) and such party shall have no liability under the
indemnification provisions of this Article IX or otherwise with respect to such
matter; provided, however, that this sentence shall not limit the time within
which any action or proceeding by an Indemnified Party may be brought, or any
Indemnifying Party's liability, pursuant to Section 9.2(b)(iii).

to the extent that the aggregate amount of Loss indemnifiable under Section 
9.2(a) exceeds 1.5 percent of the Purchase Price.  No amount shall be payable 
by any Indemnifying Party pursuant to Sections 9.2(b)(i) and

9.2(b)(ii) except to the extent that the aggregate amount of Loss indemnifiable
under either of such Sections exceeds 1.5 percent of the Purchase Price.

                    (b)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement, the maximum amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be
recovered from Seller, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, arising out
of or resulting from the causes enumerated in Section 9.2 shall be an amount
equal to fifty percent of the Purchase Price.

                    (c)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement, no party shall have any liability for the breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement (or otherwise
have any liability in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement) to the extent that the existence of such liability or the breach upon
which such liability would be based is specifically disclosed in this Agreement,
any document referred to by this Agreement, the Schedules attached hereto, or
which is disclosed in a written notice specifying such breach furnished to the
other party not less than five days prior to the Closing, or of which breach
such other party has actual knowledge prior to the Closing; provided, however,

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to Affiliated Computer Services, Inc., a 
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the registration 
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of 4,027,500 shares of the 
Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), and 
up to an additional 604,125 shares of Common Stock subject to an 
over-allotment option as described in the Registration Statement of the 
Company on Form S-3 (No. 333-______) (the "Registration Statement") filed 
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Upon registration, the Company 
proposes to sell such shares to the Underwriters (the "Underwriters") listed 
in the final Prospectus (the "Prospectus") which forms a part of the 
Registration Statement.

     In rendering this opinion, we have examined and relied upon executed 
originals, counterparts or copies of such documents, records and certificates 
(including certificates of public officials and officers of the Company) as 
we considered necessary or appropriate for enabling us to express the 
opinions set forth herein. In all such examinations, we have assumed the 
authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals 
and the conformity to originals and completeness of all documents submitted 
to us as photostatic, conformed, notarized or certified copies.

     Based on the foregoing, and assuming that the Pricing Committee of the 
Company's Board of Directors duly approves the number of shares of Common 
Stock to be issued and the price of such shares, we are of the opinion that 
such shares, when issued and sold to the Underwriters as described in the 
Registration Statement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

     This opinion may be filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. 
We also consent to the reference to this firm as having passed on the validity
of the Shares under the caption "Legal Matters" in the Prospectus. In giving 
this consent, we do not admit that we are included in the category of persons 
whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as 
amended, or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
promulgated thereunder.


                                       Very truly yours,
