   * On March 29, 1999, HardMetal, Inc. ("Merger Subsidiary"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Computer Associates International, Inc. ("Computer Associates"),
entered into a Stockholder Option Agreement, dated as of March 29, 1999 (the
"Stockholder Option Agreement"), with certain stockholders of the Company (as
hereinafter defined) (collectively, the "Principal Stockholders"), pursuant to
which the Principal Stockholders each granted the Merger Subsidiary an
irrevocable option, subject to certain conditions (the "Option"), to purchase
for a price of $29.25 per share (subject to the adjustments specified therein),
or to cause to be tendered pursuant to the tender offer described in this
Statement (the "Offer"), all the shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per
share (and the associated Rights) (the "Shares"), of PLATINUM TECHNOLOGY
International, INC. (the "Company") owned by them (representing an aggregate of
2,629,555, or approximately 2.6% of the Shares outstanding as of March 29, 1999)
(the "Optioned Shares"), and an additional 7,644,125 shares issuable to certain
of the Principal Stockholders upon exercise of employee stock options (the
"Employee Stock Options"). Merger Subsidiary's option to purchase the Optioned
Shares and the shares issuable upon the exercise of the Employee Stock Options
is reflected in Rows 8, 10, 11 and 13 of each of the tables above. Subject to
certain conditions, including the consummation of the Offer, the Option is
exercisable by the Merger Subsidiary at any time or from time to time, from
March 29, 1999 until the 30th business day after the termination of the Merger
Agreement in accordance with its terms. Pursuant to the Stockholder Option
Agreement, each Principal Stockholder has granted a proxy to the Merger
Subsidiary as such Principal Stockholder's attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full
power of substitution, to vote or consent such Principal Stockholder's Optioned
Shares in favor of the Merger. Certain of the Shares and Optioned Shares are,
according to one of the Principal Stockholders, subject to third party rights,
and, to such extent, Merger Subsidiary's rights under the Stockholder Option
Agreement are subject and subordinate, which may limit Merger Subsidiary's right
over such Shares and Optioned Shares, as described. The Stockholder Option
Agreement is described more fully in Section 11 ("Purpose of the Offer; Merger
Agreement; Stockholder Option Agreement; Consulting and Non-Compete Agreements;
Appraisal Rights") of Merger Subsidiary's Offer to Purchase all of the
outstanding Shares filed by Merger Subsidiary and Computer Associates as an
exhibit to the Schedule 14D-1 filed, on April 2, 1999, with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Offer to Purchase").

   ** On January 15, 1999, Computer Associates purchased 1,080,000 Shares in
open market purchases for an aggregate purchase price (excluding brokerage
commissions) of approximately $14,477,184 (or an average purchase price of
approximately $13.4048 per share ) in cash. Such purchases are reflected in Rows
7 and 9 of each of the tables above.
