          CSC TO COMMENCE TENDER OFFER FOR SHARES OF MYND, FORMERLY
                POLICY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS, ON JUNE 28, 2000.

     EL SEGUNDO, Calif., June 27 -- Computer Sciences Corporation (NYSE: CSC)
and Policy Management Systems Corporation (NYSE: PMS), d/b/a Mynd, announced
today that they had mutually agreed that CSC will commence by June 28, rather
than June 27, its previously announced tender offer for all shares of Mynd
common stock at $16 net per share in cash.

     Upon commencement of the cash tender offer, CSC will file a Tender Offer
Statement with the SEC and mail a copy to each Mynd shareholder.  On the same
day, Mynd expects to file a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement with the
SEC that will also be mailed to its shareholders.  Mynd shareholders are
advised to read the Tender Offer Statement and the
Solicitation/Recommendation Statement when they become available because they
will contain important information that shareholders should consider before
making any decision regarding tendering their shares.

     Investors can access the Tender Offer Statement, the
Solicitation/Recommendation Statement and other documents filed with the SEC
at no charge at its Web site (www.sec.gov).  Copies of CSC's Tender Offer
Statement, Mynd's Solicitation/Recommendation Statement and other CSC SEC
filings will be available at no charge by telephoning CSC's shareholder
services and automated literature request line at 800.542.3070.
