                        CA TO PROCEED WITH CSC OFFER

ISLANDIA, N.Y., February 19, 1998 - Computer Associates International, Inc.
today announced that it is proceeding with its offer for Computer Sciences
Corporation at $108 cash per share. CA stated that, while it clearly preferred
and offered to negotiate a transaction with CSC management, the decision now
should be submitted to CSC shareholders in a fair referendum.

CA today modified its Hart-Scott Rodino notification in order to shorten the
waiting period for antitrust clearance to 15 days.

Computer Associates International, Inc. (NYSE: CA), with headquarters in
Islandia, N.Y., is the world leader in mission-critical business software. The
Company develops, licenses and supports more than 500 integrated products that
include enterprise computing and information management, application
development, manufacturing and financial applications. CA has over 11,000
people in 160 offices in 43 countries and had revenue of $4.5 billion in
calendar year 1997. CA can be reached by visiting HTTP://WWW.CAI.COM on the
World Wide Web, emailing [email protected], or calling 1-516-342-5224.

the planned solicitation. The Computer Associates nominees are Charles B. Wang,
Sanjay Kumar, Russell Artzt, Peter A. Schwartz, Steven M. Woghin, Charles P.
McWade, Ira Zar, Michael A. McElroy, David Kaplan, Robert Toth, Richard
Chiarello, Lisa Savino, Gary Quinn, Abraham Poznanski and Douglas Robinson.
None of the Computer Associates Nominees will receive any additional
compensation for their participation in this solicitation.

Computer Associates owns, through a wholly owned subsidiary, 170,000 shares of
common stock of Computer Sciences Corporation. None of the Computer Associates
Nominees owns any shares of Computer Sciences common stock.

Computer Associates has also retained Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. and its
affiliates ("Bear Stearns") to provide certain financial advisory services to
Computer Associates. Bear Stearns is acting as Dealer Manager in connection
with the Offer and as financial advisor to Computer Associates and the CAI
Computer Services Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Computer Associates, in
connection with the proposed acquisition of the Company, but Bear Stearns has
not been retained to specifically assist in this solicitation. Computer
Associates is obligated to pay to Bear Stearns, if, as more fully described in
the engagement letter relating to Bear Stearns' engagement, during the term of
the engagement or within 12 months thereafter Computer Associates acquires the
Company or more than 50% of its outstanding voting securities, a fee of $5
million and a fee of $1 million (which will be credited against such $5 million
fee) if Computer Associates requests Bear Stearns to render a customary
fairness opinion. Bear

Stearns is also entitled to act as sole underwriter, placement agreement and 
financial advisor in connection with certain debt and equity financings (and 
certain refinancings) and certain asset sales for a specified period 
following the acquisition and to receive fees in connection therewith. In 
addition, Computer Associates has agreed to reimburse Bear Stearns for its 
reasonable expenses, including reasonable fees and disbursements of its 
counsel, incurred in rendering its services under its engagement agreement 
with Computer Associates and has agreed to indemnify Bear Stearns against 
certain liabilities and expenses in connection with the Offer and Proposed 
Merger, including certain liabilities under federal securities laws. Bear 
Stearns from time to time renders various investment banking services to 
Computer Associates and its affiliates for which it is paid customary fees.

In connection with Bear Stearns' engagement as financial advisor, Computer 
Associates anticipates that Michael J. Urfirer, Senior Managing Director of 
Bear Stearns, Lisa M. Price, Senior Managing Director of Bear Stearns and 
Barry J. Cohen, Senior Managing Director of Bear Stearns, none of whom will 
receive additional compensation for such solicitation, may communicate in 
person, by telephone or otherwise with a limited number of institutions, 
brokers or other persons who are shareholders for the purpose of assisting in 
this solicitation. Bear Stearns will not receive any fee for, or in 
connection with, such solicitation activities by its employees apart from the 
fees it is otherwise entitled to receive as described above. None of the 
above-named employees of Bear Stearns owns any shares of Computer Sciences 
Corporation common stock.
