Item 5.  Other Events
         ------------

         On September 29, 1995, SunGard Data Systems Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("SunGard"), MACESS Corporation, an Alabama corporation ("MACESS"),
and SDS Merger Inc., an Alabama corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of
SunGard ("Newco"), signed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement") and a related Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the
"Reorganization Agreement") by and among MACESS, the eight principal
shareholders of MACESS (the "Principals"), SunGard and Newco, providing for the
merger (the "MACESS Merger") of Newco with and into MACESS with MACESS surviving
as a wholly owned subsidiary of SunGard. MACESS' principal business is providing
work-flow management and document imaging systems to the healthcare industry,
with an emphasis on managed healthcare providers. Total consideration for the
MACESS Merger will be 1,990,000 shares of SunGard common stock, par value $.01
per share ("SunGard Common Stock"), subject to adjustment only for
recapitalization, having a value of approximately $57,710,000 based on the last
sale price of SunGard Common Stock on October 2, 1995 as reported on The Nasdaq
Stock Market. The closing of the MACESS Merger is subject to certain conditions,
including, among other conditions, certain regulatory approvals and the approval
of the shareholders of MACESS. The closing of the MACESS Merger is expected to
occur in November 1995. The Reorganization Agreement and Merger Agreement
attached hereto as Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2, respectively, and SunGard's press
release dated October 2, 1995 attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 are incorporated
herein by reference.

         On September 28, 1995, SunGard and Renaissance Software Inc., a
California corporation ("Renaissance"), announced the signing of an Agreement
and Plan of Merger and a related Agreement and Plan of Reorganization by and
among Renaissance, the four principal shareholders of Renaissance, SunGard and a
wholly owned subsidiary of SunGard, providing for the merger (the "Renaissance
Merger") of such subsidiary with and into Renaissance with Renaissance surviving
as a wholly owned subsidiary of SunGard. Renaissance's principal business is
developing and licensing software used by financial institutions, banks and
other market makers in the trading of over-the-counter interest rate derivative
instruments. The closing of the Renaissance Merger is subject to certain
conditions, including, among other conditions, certain regulatory approvals and
the approval of the shareholders of Renaissance. The closing is expected to
occur in November 1995. SunGard's press release dated September 28, 1995
attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 is incorporated herein by reference.

         On August 31, 1995, SunGard completed the acquisition of Intelus
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Intelus"), whereby Intelus became a wholly
owned subsidiary of SunGard in accordance with an Agreement and Plan of Merger
and a related Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated August 23, 1995 (the
"Intelus Merger").  Intelus' principal business is providing work-flow
management and document imaging systems to the healthcare and financial services
industries, with an emphasis on hospitals.

         The three business acquisitions described above will be accounted for
as poolings-of-interests. Additionally, during the nine month period ended
September 30, 1995, SunGard has completed five business acquisitions accounted
for as purchases, none of which are expected to have a material effect on
SunGard's financial condition or results of operations.

         As described in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1, MACESS and
Intelus will form the nucleus of a new business group called SunGard Technology
Systems, headed by Kenneth R. Adams who was chief executive officer of SunGard's
Recovery Services Group. Michael F. Mulholland, president and chief operating
officer of SunGard Recovery Services Inc., has succeeded Mr. Adams as Chief
Executive Officer of the Recovery Services Group. With the addition of
Renaissance, SunGard is also reorganizing its trading and risk management
businesses under the SunGard Trading Systems Group, formerly known as the
SunGard Capital Markets Group. The SunGard Trading Systems Group will continue
to be led by Cristobal I. Conde.

                         Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Directors
MACESS Corporation

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of MACESS Corporation as of
December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related statements of income, changes in
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 audit.

We conducted our audit 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of MACESS Corporation at December
31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                         Notes to Financial Statements

              June 30, 1995 (unaudited) and 1994 (unaudited) and
                 December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 (unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

MACESS Corporation (the Company) was formed December 29, 1989 for the purpose of
developing and selling computer software, providing consultation, installation
and training services to meet the needs of potential customers.  The Company's
software sales are part of a turnkey vertical market solution to meet its
customers needs which include the above-mentioned services as well as support
and maintenance services and ongoing software sales.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements for the six months ended 
June 30, 1995 and 1994 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information.  The Company has
included adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a
fair presentation of the Company's financial position at June 30, 1995 and
results of operations and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30,
1995 and 1994.

2. Accounting Policies

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly
liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.  Cash equivalents, consisting primarily of money market funds, are
valued at cost which approximates market.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and
amortization are computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the related assets ranging from three to five years, except for
leasehold improvements which is 39 years.

                                                                               7

                   Notes to Financial Statements (continued)


2. Accounting Policies (continued)

Capitalized Software

Amortization of software development costs begins at the time the product is
ready for sale, and is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated
economic life of the product.  Research and development costs related to
software development are expensed as incurred.

Taxes

Deferred taxes are provided for differences between financial and income tax
reporting.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue based on the terms of the contract which
correlates to the percentage of completion method of accounting.  The contract
payment terms for software, consulting and training generally include an initial
payment equal to 25% of the contract value, 50% after the computer system is
installed and the final 25% 30 to 90 days after installation.  The contract
payment terms for hardware generally include an initial payment equal to 25% of
the contract value and 75% after the computer system is installed.  The Company
generally does not require collateral as security for payment.

4. Capitalized Software Development Costs

The Company capitalized salaries and indirect costs of $172,975 for the six
months ended June 30, 1995 and $327,410, $312,221 and $133,692 in 1994, 1993 and
1992, respectively, relating to the development of new software products,
including product enhancements.  Capitalization of software development costs
begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility and continues until
such software is available for sale.

The establishment of technological feasibility, the point at which the product
is ready for general release, and the ongoing assessment of recoverability of
capitalized software development costs requires the exercise of judgment by
management. In the opinion of management, all such costs capitalized at June 30,
1995 are recoverable through anticipated future sales of the applicable
products.

5. Notes Payable to Stockholders

Notes payable to stockholders consisted of the following:

6. Taxes

The Company follows the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes."  Under Statement 109, the
liability method is used in accounting for income taxes.  Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting
and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax
rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to
reverse.

The provision for taxes as a percentage of income before taxes differs from the
U.S. federal statutory rate as follows:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.   BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Business - Renaissance Software, Inc. (the Company) is engaged in the
     development, marketing and sale of software products and services for use
     in the financial services and capital markets industries.

     Basis of Presentation - The consolidated financial statements include the
     Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
     balances and transactions have been eliminated.

     Cash and Equivalents - Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid debt
     instruments purchased with original maturities of ninety days or less.

     Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost.
     Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
     useful lives of the related assets, which range from four to seven years.

     Software Development Costs - Software development costs are expensed as
     incurred until technological feasibility is established, at which time any
     additional costs are capitalized in accordance with Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software
     To Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed." Because the Company believes
     its current process for developing software is essentially completed
     concurrently with the establishment of technological feasibility, no costs
     have been capitalized through March 31, 1995.

     Revenue Recognition - Revenue from software licenses is recognized upon
     installation and when no significant obligations remain outstanding. When
     the Company receives payment prior to installation or fulfillment of
     significant vendor obligations, such payments are recorded as deferred
     revenue and are recognized as revenue upon installation or fulfillment of
     significant vendor obligations. Contract revenues are generally recognized
     upon completion of milestones and when such amounts are billable.
     Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance
     agreement. Revenue from customer training, support, and other services is
     recognized as the service is performed.

     Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, which requires an
     asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of
     income taxes.

2.   NOTES RECEIVABLE

     The notes receivable from employees are unsecured, bear interest at 5% to
     6% per annum and are due September 1995 through February 1997.

     The holders of convertible preferred stock are entitled to receive
     dividends, prior and in preference to holders of common stock, when and if
     declared by the Board of Directors. Each share of convertible preferred
     stock has voting rights equal to its common stock equivalents and is
     entitled to a liquidation preference of $1.00 per share.

     Beginning June 30, 1995, each share of Series B-1, B-2 and B-3 preferred
     stock is convertible into 1-1/8 shares of common stock at the option of the
     holder. Such conversions are based on the initial conversion rate, as
     defined in the stock purchase agreements, and are subject to certain
     antidilution provisions. All outstanding shares of preferred stock
     automatically convert to common stock upon the closing of an underwritten
     public offering of the Company's common stock yielding proceeds in excess
     of $7,500,000 and $3.00 per share.

     The Company has reserved 2,880,000 shares of common stock for future
     conversion of convertible preferred stock.

     Common Stock and Stock Option Plan

     In fiscal 1993, the Board of Directors approved the Renaissance Software,
     Inc. 1992 Equity Incentive Plan (the Plan), which provides for the issuance
     of up to 4,250,000 shares of common stock, incentive stock options and
     nonqualified stock options. At March 31, 1995, a total of 3,183,870 shares
     of common stock have been issued under the Plan, net of repurchases.
<PAGE>
 
     Common stock is issued at fair market value, as determined by the Board of
     Directors, and generally vests over a period of three to five years. The
     Company may repurchase such stock at the original issue price for unvested
     shares. At March 31, 1995 there were 1,108,914 unvested shares. Options are
     granted at fair market value, as determined by the Board of Directors, and
     generally vest over a period of five years.

     In fiscal 1995, the Company issued common stock to certain officers and
     employees in exchange for notes receivable. The common stock vests ratably
     over a period of three to five years. The notes receivable from the sale of
     common stock bear interest at 5% to 10% and are due through 1997.

     Option activity under the incentive and nonqualified stock option plan for
     fiscal 1995 is as follows:

       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


1.   The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been
     prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
     interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
     information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
     principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,
     all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
     necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for
     the three month period ended June 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative
     of the results that may be expected or the fiscal year ending March 31,
     1996.

                       Report of Independent Accountants
                       ---------------------------------

To the Board of Directors
Intelus Corporation

          We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Intelus Corporation
as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related statements of operations,
changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended.  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 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, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Intelus Corporation
as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

          As discussed in Note 13, the Company has agreed to be acquired as of
August 31, 1995.

          As discussed in Note 12, in 1993 the Company changed its method of
accounting for income taxes to conform with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes".

                                        ________          


1.   Organization

               Intelus Corporation (the Company) was incorporated on July 31,
     1986, under the laws of the State of Delaware, to acquire and operate a
     division of Infocel, Inc.  The Company is primarily engaged in the
     development, marketing, and maintenance of comprehensive document
     management systems using UNIX-based distributed computer networks.


2.   Summary of significant accounting policies

          Interim financial statements
          ----------------------------
 
               The interim financial statements are unaudited, but, in the
          opinion of management, include all necessary adjustments (which
          comprise only normal recurring items) required for a fair presentation
          of the financial position as of June 30, 1995 and 1994 and the
          results of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash
          flows for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.

          Revenue recognition
          -------------------

               The Company's revenues consist primarily of sales of systems and
          product and fees for maintenance.  Systems and product revenues are
          recognized upon shipment of the equipment and acceptance of software
          by the customer in accordance with Statement of Position 91-1 Software
          Revenue Recognition and Statement of Position 81-1, Accounting for
          Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type
          Contracts.  Annual maintenance fees are recorded as deferred revenue
          at the time of receipt and then recognized ratably over the respective
          maintenance period.

          Cash and cash equivalents
          -------------------------

               The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original
          maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents for purposes
          of the statement of cash flows.

          Inventory
          ---------

               Inventory primarily consists of computer equipment and is valued
          at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is determined principally on the
          average cost method.

                             NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                                         
                                        ________          


          Fixed assets
          ------------

               Fixed assets are stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed on the
          straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related
          assets, ranging from 3 to 7 years.  Leasehold improvements are
          amortized over the term of the lease or the useful life of the
          improvements, whichever is less.

               At the time of retirement or other disposal of fixed assets, the
          cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the
          accounts and resulting gains or losses are reflected in the statement
          of operations.

          Software
          --------

               Purchased software is amortized over useful lives of up to 5
          years on a straight-line basis.  Amortization expense of $29,371 and
          $21,087 was recorded in 1994 and 1993, respectively.

               The Company capitalizes software development costs incurred for
          new products and product enhancements when technological feasibility
          has been established, as evidenced by a working model.  Capitalization
          ceases when the new product or enhancement is available for general
          release to customers, at which time amortization of the capitalized
          costs begins and is included in cost of goods sold.  Total
          amortization expense was $468,092 and $376,688 in 1994 and 1993,
          respectively.  Capitalized software is amortized on a straight-line
          basis over the estimated life of the products, generally three to five
          years.  Research and development expense, before capitalization of
          software development costs, amounted to approximately $1,416,000 and
          $1,350,000 for the years ended December 31, 1994, and 1993,
          respectively.

                                        ________          


          Income taxes
          ------------

               Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted SFAS Statement No.
          109, Accounting for Income Taxes.  Under SFAS 109, deferred tax
          liabilities and assets are recognized for the estimated future tax
          consequences of temporary differences and income tax credits.
          Temporary differences are primarily the result of the differences
          between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial
          reporting amounts.  Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured
          by applying enacted statutory tax rates, applicable to the future
          years, in which deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be
          settled or realized.  Valuation allowances are established when
          necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be
          realized.  Income tax expense consists of the taxes payable for the
          current period and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities
          during the period.

          Concentration of credit risk
          ----------------------------

               The Company sells its products to various end users in different
          industries and geographic locations.  The Company's five largest
          customers accounted for approximately 37.3% and 30.5% of sales in 1994
          and 1993, respectively.  Accounts receivable included two diversified
          customers whose balances accounted for approximately 37% and 25% of
          the outstanding accounts receivable at December 31, 1994 and 1993,
          respectively.

 3.  Property and equipment

     interest is due on demand and principal was due in full on May 31, 1993.
     The bank extended the Company's due date on the Note until June 30, 1995.
     As of December 31, 1994, the Company was in default with respect to several
     affirmative covenants, but was granted a waiver for all of them.

               On March 28, 1995, the Company received an increase in the
     maximum borrowing amount under its Revolving Loan Note Agreement with its
     bank.  Available short-term borrowings increased to $2,500,000 and were due
     and payable on June 30, 1995.  Borrowings under the Note were limited to
     85% of eligible accounts receivable, 60% of maintenance accounts receivable
     (not to exceed $400,000) and 50% against inventory (not to exceed
     $250,000).  As of March 31, 1995, the Company was in default with respect
     to one of the affirmative covenants, for which a waiver was received from
     the bank.

               On June 22, 1995, the Company received another increase in the
     maximum borrowing amount under its Revolving Loan Note Agreement with its
     bank.  Available short term borrowings are now in the amount of $3,100,000,
     and are due and payable on September 30, 1995.  Borrowings under the Note
     have the same limitations as the March 28, 1995 increase, except for the
     addition of 30% of eligible unbilled accounts receivable (not to exceed
     $500,000).  Interest on the loan is at a floating rate of prime minus 1%.
     As of June 30, 1995, the Company was in default with respect to several
     affirmative covenants, but was granted a waiver for all of them.

 
               Also, under the terms of the Revolving Loan Note Agreement, there
     exists a Fraud Indemnification Agreement ("the Agreement") between the
     majority shareholder ("the Indemnitor") and the bank whereby, with respect
     to the existence or occurrence of a condition of fraud, as defined in the
     Agreement, the Indemnitor agrees to indemnify the bank from any loss, cost
     or expense as a result of such a condition, for all obligations between the
     Company and the bank.

     Loan Note Agreement (see Note 4) with the bank that permits it to borrow up
     to $400,000 to purchase equipment.  Individual borrowings bear interest at
     the bank's prime rate plus 1% and are payable monthly over three years from
     the transaction date and are collateralized by the related equipment.

     year's annual rent.  The total amount of the base rent payment and the
     escalation portion is being charged to expense using the straight-line
     method over the term of the lease.  In addition, the Company also pays an
     allocation of the building's operating expenses.  The sublease terminates
     on July 31, 1997 with no renewal option.


11.  Profit-sharing plan

               The Company maintains a defined contribution profit-sharing plan
     under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Plan) which covers
     substantially all of its permanent employees.

               Pursuant to the Plan, eligible participants may elect to
     contribute a percentage of their annual gross compensation and the Company
     will contribute certain additional amounts as provided by the Plan.  Total
     contribution expense for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993,
     amounted to $23,204 and $18,713, respectively.

13. Subsequent event

           Management's plans with regard to the refinancing of the Note payable
    to the bank (see Note 4), included alternate financing through several
    venture capital sources or a potential merger opportunity.  On June 15,
    1995, the Company and its majority stockholders signed a letter of intent to
    be acquired by merger through the exchange of substantially all of the
    Company's outstanding common and preferred shares for shares of the
    acquiring entity at the exchange rate equating to a total company valuation
    of approximately $23 million.

         Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Income Statement Data

             The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Income Statement Data
        assumes that the MACESS Merger, the Renaissance Merger and the Intelus
        Merger (collectively, the "Mergers") had occurred on January 1, 1992,
        combining the results of SunGard, MACESS, Renaissance and Intelus for
        the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 and for each of the three
        years in the period ended December 31, 1994, with each of the Mergers
        accounted for on a pooling-of-interests basis. The pro forma information
        is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily
        indicative of the results of operations that actually would have been
        obtained if the Mergers had been effected on the dates indicated or of
        the results that may be obtained in the future. Unaudited pro forma
        combined condensed balance sheet data as of June 30, 1995 and 
        December 31, 1994 are not provided herein because the Mergers would not
        have had a material effect on SunGard's historical consolidated balance
        sheets. During the nine month period ended September 30, 1995, SunGard
        has completed five business acquisitions accounted for as purchases. Pro
        forma data for these acquisitions are not presented since the financial
        condition and results of operations as reported in SunGard's historical
        financial statements would not be materially different.

             The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Income Statement Data 
        should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements
        and the related notes thereto of SunGard, MACESS, Renaissance and
        Intelus, all of which are included or incorporated by reference herein.

of ERISA; and (h) there has not been any termination or partial termination of
such plan (including, but not limited to, any termination or partial termination
attributable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement). There are no

of its Employee Benefit Plans are terminated as of the Effective Date. MACESS

Section 13:  Certain Obligations of SunGard and the Surviving Corporation after
Closing

       13.1.       Final Tax Returns. Surviving Corporation shall timely prepare
and file all federal and state income tax returns required to be filed by MACESS
for the period from January 1, 1995 through the Effective Date, and the

thereto.

       13.2.       Employment Matters. All Persons who are full-time employees
of MACESS on the Effective Date shall continue to be employed by the Surviving
Corporation after the Effective Date on an "at-will" basis and for salaries or
wages consistent with the levels in effect as of the date of this Agreement.

       13.3.       Employee Benefit Plans.  As soon as is practicable after the
Effective Date, SunGard and the executives of MACESS shall review MACESS'
Employee Benefit Plans to determine which such plans should remain in effect as
plans of the Surviving Corporation and which should be replaced with SunGard's
Employee Benefit Plans, with a view toward replacing all of MACESS' Employee
Benefit Plans with SunGard's Employee Benefit Plans except where cost factors or
unusual circumstances dictate otherwise.  Immediately after the Merger, except
as provided above in this Section 13.3, the employees of MACESS shall be
entitled to participate in SunGard's applicable standard Employee Benefit Plans,
as and when such employees become eligible to participate under the terms of
such plans, and after MACESS' employees are eligible to participate in a SunGard
standard Employee Benefit Plan, the corresponding, separate Employee Benefit
Plans of MACESS shall be terminated.  Each employee of MACESS shall receive
credit, to the extent possible under the applicable standard Employee Benefit
Plans of SunGard, for his or her years of service with MACESS.

       13.4.       Disposition of Savings Plan.  After the Effective Date, the
following plans of MACESS shall be handled as follows:

          (a)      As soon as is practicable after the Effective Date, MACESS'
401(k) (the "401(k) Plan") shall be "frozen" and the employees of MACESS shall
begin to participate in SunGard's 401(k) Savings Plan. As soon as is practicable
after the Effective Date but not later than nine months thereafter, the full
accounts of the MACESS employees under the MACESS 401(k) Plan shall be

Savings Plan, and the MACESS 401(k) Plan shall terminate.

          (b)      As soon as is practicable after the Effective Date, the
Surviving Corporation shall adopt and join in SunGard's Employee Stock Purchase
Plan.

              Section 14: Restrictive Covenants of the Principals.
     
       14.1.       Certain Acknowledgements.  Each Principal expressly
acknowledges that:

          (a)      "Imaging Business" shall mean the developing, enhancing and
licensing of imaging-based, automated document management or work flow
management proprietary Software and computer systems that provide functionality
the same as or substantially similar to the functionality contained in the
Software products and computer systems marketed, licensed, owned, claimed to
have been owned, under development or planned by MACESS at any time prior to the
Effective Date (or, with respect to a Principal who remains an employee

                                     -30-
<PAGE>
 
of the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Date, the date of such
Principal's termination of employment with the Surviving Corporation, SunGard or
any of its affiliates)  ("Imaging Software") and providing data processing and
related services using the Imaging Software and such computer systems;
irrespective of the hardware platform or software platform on which the Imaging
Software and computer systems operate, irrespective of the technology utilized
to effect such functionality, irrespective of the markets to which the Imaging
Software and computer systems are marketed or licensed and irrespective of which
existing and/or future subsidiaries of SunGard may engage in such business.
SunGard and all existing and future subsidiaries of SunGard, including MACESS,
engaged in the Imaging Business are referred to as the "SunGard Group."

          (b)      The Imaging Business is highly competitive, is marketed
throughout the United States, and requires long sales "lead times" often up to
one year. MACESS expends, and the SunGard Group will expend, substantial time
and money, on an ongoing basis, to train its employees, maintain and expand its
customer base, and improve and develop its software and services.

          (c)      In connection with the Transactions and during his tenure as
an owner and/or executive of MACESS, he has had access to proprietary and
confidential property, knowledge and information of MACESS' operations which,
after Closing, shall be proprietary and confidential property, knowledge and
information of the SunGard Group; such property, knowledge and information must
be kept in strict confidence to protect the Imaging Business and maintain the
SunGard Group's competitive positions in the marketplace; and such knowledge and
information would be useful to competitors of the SunGard Group for indefinite
periods of time.

          (d)      The covenants of this Section 14 (the "Covenants") are a
material part of this Agreement and are an integral part of the obligations of
the Principals hereunder; the Covenants are supported by good and adequate
consideration; and the Covenants are reasonable and necessary to protect the
legitimate business interests of the SunGard Group.

       14.2.       Nondisclosure Covenants.  At all times after the date of this
Agreement, for an indefinite period of time, except with SunGard's prior written
consent, or except in connection with the proper performance of services for and
as an employee of the SunGard Group, none of the Principals shall, directly or
indirectly, in any capacity:

          (a)      Communicate, publish or otherwise disclose to any Person, or
use for the benefit of any Person, any confidential or proprietary property,
knowledge or information of the SunGard Group or concerning any of its business,
software, assets or financial condition, no matter when or how such knowledge or
information was obtained, including without limitation (a) any information
concerning the Assets, or the conduct and details of MACESS' Business; (b) the
identity of customers and prospects, their specific requirements, and the names,
addresses and telephone numbers of individual contacts at customers and
prospects; (c) prices, renewal dates and other detailed terms of customer and
supplier Contracts and proposals; (d) pricing policies, marketing and sales
strategies, methods of delivering Software and services, and Software and
service development projects and strategies; (e) source code, object code, user

expressions for Software products; (g) employment and payroll records; (h)
forecasts, budgets and other


                                     -31-
<PAGE>
 
nonpublic financial information; and (i) expansion plans, management policies,
methods of operation, and other business strategies and policies.

          (b)      Disclose, use or refer to any proprietary software or other
confidential or proprietary property, knowledge or information of the SunGard
Group, no matter when or how acquired, for any purpose not in furtherance of the
business and interests of the SunGard Group, including without limitation the
purposes of designing, developing, marketing and/or selling any Software that is
similar to, visually or functionally, or competitive with any proprietary
Software of the SunGard Group.

       14.3.       Noncompetition Covenants.  During the period beginning on the
date of this Agreement and ending on the third (3rd) anniversary of the
Effective Date (or with respect to the Principals employed by Surviving
Corporation, the later of: (i) the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective
Date, or (ii) the first (1st) anniversary of the date of termination of
employment with SunGard or any of its affiliates), except with SunGard's prior
written consent, none of the Principals shall, directly or indirectly, in any
capacity, at any location worldwide:
 
          (a)      Communicate with or solicit any Person who is or during such
period becomes a customer, prospect, supplier, employee, salesman, agent or
representative of, or a consultant to, the SunGard Group, in any manner which
interferes or might interfere with such Person's relationship with the Imaging
Business of the SunGard Group, or in an effort to obtain any such Person as a
customer, supplier, employee, salesman, agent or representative of, or a
consultant to, any other Person that conducts a business competitive with or
similar the Imaging Business.
 
          (b)      Market or sell, in any manner other than in furtherance of
the business and interests of the SunGard Group, any Imaging Software.

          (c)      Establish, own, manage, operate, finance or control, or
participate in the establishment, ownership, management, operation, financing or
control of, or be a director, officer, employee, salesman, agent or
representative of, or be a consultant to, any Person that conducts an Imaging
Business.

 
It is the intent of the Parties that each of the Principals be prohibited for
said period from selling, marketing or furthering a system that has
substantially the same functionality as the Imaging Software and can be used in
lieu of the Imaging Software in a competitive manner against the Imaging
Software of the SunGard Group.

       14.4.       Certain Exclusions.  Confidential and proprietary property,
knowledge and information of the SunGard Group shall not include any information
that is now known by or readily available to the general public, nor shall it
include any information that in the future becomes known by or readily available
to the general public other than as a result of any breach of the Covenants of
this Agreement.  The ownership by any of the Principals of not more than five
percent (5%) of the outstanding securities of any public company shall not, by
itself, constitute a breach of the Covenants of Section 14.3, even if such
public company competes with the SunGard Group.  Any noncontrolling, passive,
investment by Featheringill in the ordinary course of his venture capital
financing shall not constitute a breach of the Covenants of Section 14.3, even
if the company in which Featheringill makes such noncontrolling passive
investment competes with the SunGard Group.

                                     -32-
<PAGE>
 
       14.5.       Newsoftco. The parties acknowledge that MACESS has entered
into an agreement with another company ("Newsoftco"), of which MACESS and
Featheringill are investors, to construct an electronic software system
consisting of the integration of various functions and programs described in
Exhibit 14.5 attached hereto. Based on the representations and information
contained in Exhibit 14.5, it is agreed that the development and the operation
of Newsoftco is not competitive with the current business and functionality of
MACESS and that the involvement of MACESS and Featheringill in Newsoftco shall
not constitute a breach of Section 14.3 of this Agreement.

       14.6.       Enforcement of Covenants.  Each of the Principals expressly
acknowledges that it would be extremely difficult to measure the damages that
might result from any breach of the Covenants, and that any breach of the
Covenants will result in irreparable injury to the SunGard Group for which money
damages could not adequately compensate.  If a breach of the Covenants occurs,
then the SunGard Group shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights and
remedies that it may have at law or in equity, to have an injunction issued by
any competent court enjoining and restraining the Principals and all other
Persons involved therein from continuing such breach.  The existence of any
claim or cause of action that any of the Principals or any such other Person may
have against any member of the SunGard Group shall not constitute a defense or
bar to the enforcement of any of the Covenants.  If the SunGard Group must
resort to litigation to enforce any of the Covenants that has a fixed term, then
such term shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period during
which a breach of such Covenant was occurring, beginning on the date of a final
court order (without further right of appeal) holding that such a breach
occurred or, if later, the last day of the original fixed term of such Covenant.

       14.7.       Scope of Covenants.  If any Covenant, or any part thereof, or
the application thereof, is construed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
then the other Covenants, or the other portions of such Covenant, or the
application thereof, shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforceable
without regard thereto.  If any of the Covenants is determined to be
unenforceable because of its scope, duration, geographical area or other factor,
then the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce or limit
such scope, duration, area or other factor, and such Covenant shall then be
enforceable in its reduced or limited form.

                          Section 15:  Indemnification

       15.1.       Principals' General Indemnification.  From and after the
Closing Date, the Principals, with liability allocated in accordance with
Section 15.5, shall indemnify and hold harmless the members of the SunGard Group
and all affiliated SunGard entities, and their respective successors and
assigns, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and
representatives, from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands,
debts, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, costs and expenses, including
without limitation reasonable attorney's fees and court costs, arising out of or
caused by, directly or indirectly, any or all of the following:

          (a)      Misrepresentation. Any misrepresentation, breach or failure
of any warranty or representation made in or pursuant to this Agreement.

          (b)      Unscheduled Obligations. Obligations other than: (i)
Obligations reflected on the August 1995 Balance Sheet, (ii) Obligations set
forth in Schedule 3.8, (iii) Obligations


                                     -33-
<PAGE>
 
under Contracts listed or not required to be listed on Schedule 3.14, provided
that as of August 31, 1995, no such Obligation consisted of or resulted from a
default under or violation of any such Contract, and (iv) Obligations incurred
since August 31, 1995 and not in breach of any of the representations and
warranties made in Section 3.9 or any of the covenants of Section 7.1.

          (c)      Taxes.  Any deficiency or adjustment for Taxes and related
interest, penalties and expenses, assessed against or imposed upon MACESS (or
its successor) with respect to any period ending on or before the Closing Date
to the extent not reserved against on the August 1995 Balance Sheet.  The right
of the SunGard Group to indemnification under this Section 15.1(c) shall not be
affected by the fact that the applicable tax deficiency, adjustment, interest or
penalties may be assessed against SunGard as a result of the fact that, after
the Closing Date, MACESS shall be included in the consolidated federal income
tax returns filed by SunGard; provided that the Principals shall not be liable
for Taxes, interest, penalties and expenses to the extent resulting solely from
voluntary amendments to previously filed tax returns made after Closing by
MACESS or SunGard.

       15.2.       Indemnification Procedures.  With respect to each event,
occurrence or matter ("Indemnification Matter") as to which any member of the
SunGard Group  (the "Indemnitee") is entitled to indemnification from the
Principals (the "Indemnitor") under this Section 15:

          (a)      Notice.  Within ten (10) days after the Indemnitee receives
written documents underlying the Indemnification Matter or, if the
Indemnification Matter does not involve a third-party action, suit, claim or
demand, promptly after the Indemnitee first has actual knowledge of the
Indemnification Matter, the Indemnitee shall give reasonably detailed notice to
the Indemnitor of the nature of the Indemnification Matter and the amount
demanded or claimed in connection therewith ("Indemnification Notice"), together
with copies of any such written documents.

          (b)      Defense.  If a third-party action, suit, claim or demand is
involved, then, upon receipt of the Indemnification Notice, the Indemnitor
shall, at its expense and through counsel of its choice, promptly assume and
have sole control over the litigation, defense or settlement (the "Defense") of
the Indemnification Matter, except that (a) the Indemnitee may, at its option
and expense and through counsel of its choice, participate in (but not control)
the Defense; (b) if the Indemnitee reasonably believes that the handling of the
Defense by the Indemnitor may have a material adverse affect on the Indemnitee,
its business or financial condition, or its relationship with any customer,
prospect, supplier, employee, salesman, consultant, agent or representative,
then the Indemnitee may, at its option and expense and through counsel of its
choice, assume control of the Defense, provided that the Indemnitor shall be
entitled to participate in the Defense at its expense and through counsel of its
choice; (c) the Indemnitor shall not consent to any Judgment, or agree to any
settlement, without the Indemnitee's prior written consent; and (d) if the
Indemnitor does not promptly assume control over the Defense or, after doing so,
does not continue to prosecute the Defense in good faith, the Indemnitee may, at
its option and through counsel of its choice, but at the Indemnitor's expense,
assume control over the Defense.  In any event, the Indemnitor and the
Indemnitee shall fully cooperate with each other in connection with the Defense,
including without limitation by furnishing all available documentary or other
evidence as is reasonably requested by the other.

          (c)      Payments. All amounts owed by the Indemnitor to the
Indemnitee (if any) shall be paid in full within fifteen (15) business days
after a final Judgment (without further right of appeal) determining the amount
owed is rendered, or after a final settlement or agreement as to the amount owed
is executed.

       15.3.       Limits on Indemnification.  Liability under this Section 15
shall be limited as follows:

          (a)      Threshold.  No amount shall be payable under this Section 15
unless and until the aggregate amount otherwise payable under this Section 15
exceeds Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000), in which event the Indemnitor
shall pay such aggregate amount and all future amounts payable by the Indemnitor
under this Section 15.

          (b)      Ceiling.

                   (i)   With respect to Indemnification Matters related to
title to or infringement caused by any Software product, or component thereof,
which was marketed, licensed, owned or claimed to have been owned by MACESS at
any time before Closing ("Software Indemnification Matter"), except as set forth
in Section 15.4, the total liability under this Section 15 shall not exceed two
thirds (2/3) of the Merger Consideration (as defined below), and each
Principal's total liability under this Section 15 shall not exceed two thirds
(2/3) of such Principal's share of the Merger Consideration, in accordance with
the applicable percentages set forth on Exhibit 15.5. "Merger Consideration"
means the Total SunGard Stock Issued multiplied by the last reported sale price
of one share of SunGard Stock, as reported on The Nasdaq Stock Market on the
Closing Date.


                   (ii)  With respect to all other Indemnification Matters,
except as set forth in Section 15.4, the total liability under this Section 15
shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the Merger Consideration and each
Principal's total liability under this Section 15 shall not exceed ten percent
(10%) of such Principal's share of the Merger Consideration, in accordance with
the applicable percentages set forth on Exhibit 15.5.

          (c)      Time Periods.

                   (i)   With respect to Indemnification Matters expected to be
encountered in the routine audit process of a wholly-owned subsidiary, the
Indemnitor shall not be liable as to any such Indemnification Matter for which
the Indemnitee does not give an Indemnification Notice to the Indemnitor in
accordance with Section 15.2.(a) by March 31, 1996.

                   (ii)  With respect to Software Indemnification Matters, the
Indemnitor shall not be liable as to any such Indemnification Matter for which
the Indemnitee does not give an Indemnification Notice to the Indemnitor in
accordance with Section 15.2.(a) within five (5) years after the Effective Date.

                   (iii) With respect to all other Indemnification Matters,
except as set forth in Section 15.4, the Indemnitor shall not be liable as to
any such Indemnification Matter for which the Indemnitee does not give an
Indemnification Notice to the Indemnitor in accordance with Section 15.2.(a) 
within twelve (12) months after the Effective Date.


                                     -35-
<PAGE>
 
       15.4.       Exceptions.    None of the foregoing limitations shall apply
in the case of any Indemnification Matter involving (i) intentional
misrepresentation, fraud or criminal matters; or (ii) an Indemnification Matter
the basis of which is a breach of the representations and/or warranties
contained in Section 4.

       15.5.       Allocation.

          (a)      Except as to an Indemnification Matter the basis of which is
a breach of the representations and/or warranties contained in Section 4, all
liability under this Agreement shall be allocated in accordance with the
applicable percentages set forth on Exhibit 15.5. SunGard shall be paid first
from the Escrow Stock (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) to the extent
available and sufficient by having the Escrow Agent distribute from the Escrow
Stock to SunGard such number of shares of SunGard Stock as is equal to (i) the
amount for which the SunGard Group is entitled to indemnification divided by
(ii) the last reported sale price of one share of SunGard Stock, as reported on
The Nasdaq Stock Market on the Closing Date, and if the Escrow Stock is either
not available or not sufficient, then each Principal shall pay SunGard directly
such Principal's share of the insufficiency, in accordance with the applicable
percentages set forth on Exhibit 15.5.

          (b)      With respect to an Indemnification Matter the basis of which
is a breach of the representations and/or warranties contained in Section 4,
SunGard shall collect from such Principal's share of the Escrow Stock to the
extent available and sufficient, and if the Escrow Stock is either not available
or not sufficient, then such Principal shall pay SunGard directly the amount of
the insufficiency.

       15.6.       Mediation.   If a dispute between the Principals and SunGard
arises out of or relates to an Indemnification Matter, and if the dispute cannot
be settled through negotiation between the parties, the parties agree first to
try in good faith to settle the dispute by non-binding mediation in Alabama
under the Mediation Rules of the American Arbitration Association with a neutral
mediator selected by the American Arbitration Association, before resorting to
litigation.

       15.7.       Featheringill and The Family Partnership Liability.  The
foregoing in this Section 15 notwithstanding, all liability of Featheringill
and The Family Partnership under this Agreement shall be joint and several, and
for the purposes of allocating liability under Section 15.5 and determining the
maximum liability under Section 15.3.(b), the percentage applicable to the 
joint and several liability of Featheringill and The Family Partnership shall 
be the sum of the percentages next to their respective names on Exhibit 15.5.

                         Section 16:  Other Provisions

       16.1.       Termination.  At any time before the Closing, whether or not
the Merger has been approved by MACESS' Stockholders, this Agreement may be
terminated and the Merger abandoned in accordance with any of the following
methods:

          (a)      By the mutual written consents of SunGard and MACESS,
authorized by their respective boards of directors.

          (b)      By written notice from SunGard to MACESS, or from MACESS to
SunGard, if it becomes certain (for all practical purposes) that any of the
conditions to the


                                     -36-
<PAGE>
 
closing obligations of the party giving such notice cannot be satisfied on or
before November 30, 1995, for a reason other than such party's default, and such
party is not willing to waive the satisfaction of such condition.

          (c)      By written notice from SunGard to MACESS, or from MACESS to
SunGard, if the Closing does not occur on or before November 30, 1995 for any
reason other than a breach of this Agreement by the party giving such notice.

       16.2.       Publicity.  Without the prior written consent of SunGard,
neither MACESS nor any Principal shall make any public announcement regarding
the Transactions, nor shall they in any manner disseminate any information
regarding MACESS, SunGard, the Merger or the other Transactions, except through
distribution of the Registration Statement.  Unless required by Law or stock
exchange or NASDAQ regulation, in the opinion of SunGard's counsel, neither
SunGard nor Newco shall make any public announcement regarding the Transactions
without first consulting with the Principals.   With respect to any announcement
that any of the parties is required by Law or stock exchange or NASDAQ
regulation to issue, such party shall, to the extent possible under the
circumstances, review the necessity for the contents of the announcement with
the other party before issuing the announcement.  The provisions of this Section
16.2 shall survive any termination of this Agreement for a period of five years.

       16.3.       Fees and Expenses.

          (a)      SunGard shall pay all of the fees and expenses incurred by it
and/or Newco; MACESS shall pay all of the fees and expenses incurred by it; and
the Principals shall pay any fees and expenses separately incurred by them, in
negotiating and preparing this Agreement and the Plan (and all other Contracts
and documents executed in connection herewith or therewith) and in consummating
the Transactions, except that all SEC and state filing or registration fees
shall be divided equally between MACESS and SunGard.  MACESS shall not incur,
and Principals shall not permit MACESS to incur, legal, accounting, investment
banking, brokerage and other professional fees and expenses with respect to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, in an aggregate amount
exceeding $775,000.

          (b)      In order to induce SunGard to enter into this Agreement and
the Plan, MACESS shall make the following payments to SunGard (and Featheringill
hereby guarantees such payments) if the Merger is not consummated due to the
failure of the condition set forth in Section 10.4, provided that the failure of
MACESS Stockholders to approve the Merger is not due to a failure of one of the
conditions in Section 9 other than Section 9.2:

                   (i)  A cash payment of Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000),
payable on December 1, 1995.

                   (ii) If a Later Sale (as defined below) occurs within one
year after the date of this Agreement, an additional cash payment equal to
Twenty-Five Percent (25%) of the following amount: the aggregate consideration
received by MACESS and/or the Stockholders in such Later Sale; minus Fifty-Seven
Million Dollars ($57,000,000) (or, if less than all of the \assets or shares of
MACESS are involved in the Later Sale, the corresponding portion of
$57,000,000); minus Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000). Such additional cash
payment shall be payable upon consummation of the transaction constituting the
Later Sale (whether or not such consummation shall have occurred within one year
from the date hereof).


                                     -37-
<PAGE>
 
A "Later Sale" shall have occurred if (x) a Person other than SunGard acquires,
or commits to acquire, a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock of
MACESS or assets of MACESS having a market value equal to Fifty Percent (50%) or
more of the aggregate market value of all of the assets of MACESS, (y) MACESS
merges or consolidates, or commits to merge or consolidate, with a Person other
than SunGard, or (z) MACESS files a registration with the SEC for a public
offering of its securities.

       16.4.       Notices.  All notices, consents or other communications
required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and
shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) when delivered personally, (b) three
business days after being mailed by first class certified mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, or (c) one business day after being sent by a
reputable overnight delivery service, postage or delivery charges prepaid, to
the parties at their respective addresses stated on the first page of this
Agreement.  Notices may also be given by prepaid facsimile and shall be
effective on the date transmitted if confirmed within 24 hours thereafter by a
signed original sent in the manner provided in the preceding sentence.  Before
the Closing, notices to MACESS shall be sent to its address stated on page one
of this Agreement to the attention of its President, with a copy sent
simultaneously to the same address to the attention of its Chief Executive
Officer and another copy sent simultaneously to Thomas A. Ritchie, Esquire,
Ritchie & Rediker, L.L.C., 312 North 23rd Street, Birmingham, Alabama.   Before
the Closing, any such notice to MACESS shall suffice as notice to MACESS and to
all of the Principals.  After the Closing, notices to MACESS shall be sent to
SunGard (in the manner provided below), notices to the Principals or the
Stockholders shall be sent to the Stockholders Agent in accordance with Section
16.20, and copies of notices to the Stockholders Agent shall be sent

Notices to SunGard and/or Newco (before or after the Closing) shall be sent to
SunGard's address stated on page one of this Agreement to the attention of its
General Counsel, with a copy sent simultaneously to the same address to the
attention of its Chief Financial Officer.  Any party may change its address for
notice and the address to which copies must be sent by giving notice of the new
addresses to the other parties in accordance with this Section 16.4, provided
that any such change of address notice shall not be effective unless and until
received.

       16.5.       Survival of Representations.  All representations and
warranties made in this Agreement or pursuant hereto shall survive the date of
this Agreement, the Closing Date, the Effective Date and the consummation of the
Transactions.

       16.6.       Interpretation of Representations.  Each representation and
warranty made in this Agreement or pursuant hereto is independent of all other
representations and warranties made by the same parties, whether or not covering
related or similar matters, and must be independently and separately satisfied.
Exceptions or qualifications to any such representation or warranty shall not be
construed as exceptions or qualifications to any other representation or
warranty.

       16.7.       Reliance by SunGard and Newco.  Notwithstanding the right of
SunGard and Newco to investigate MACESS' Business, Assets and financial
condition of MACESS, and notwithstanding any knowledge determined or
determinable by SunGard and Newco as a result of such investigation, SunGard and
Newco have the unqualified right to rely upon, and have relied upon, each of the
representations and warranties made by the Principals in this Agreement or
pursuant hereto.

written communications and agreements, and all contemporaneous oral
communications and agreements, with respect to the subject matter hereof,
including without limitation all confidentiality letter agreements and letters
of intent previously entered into among some or all of the parties hereto.   No
amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing
and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.  MACESS may agree to
any amendment or supplement to this Agreement, or a waiver of any provision of
this Agreement, either before or after the approval of the MACESS Stockholders
is obtained (as contemplated by this Agreement) and without seeking further
stockholder approval, so long as such amendment, supplement or waiver does not
result in a decrease in the Preliminary Merger Exchange Ratio (as defined in the
Plan) or have a material adverse effect on the MACESS Stockholders.  This
Agreement may not be terminated except as provided in Section 16.1.

       16.9.       Parties in Interest.  This Agreement shall bind, benefit, and
be enforceable by and against MACESS, The Family Partnership, SunGard and Newco
and their respective successors and assigns, and the individual Principals and
their respective heirs, estates and personal representatives.  No party shall in
any manner assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without
the express prior written consent of the other parties.

       16.10.      Waivers.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no
waiver with respect to this Agreement shall be enforceable unless in writing and
signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.  Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, no failure to exercise, delay in exercising, or
single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy by any party, and no
course of dealing between or among any of the parties, shall constitute a waiver
of, or shall preclude any other or further exercise of, any right, power or
remedy.

       16.11.      Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is construed
to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the remaining provisions hereof
shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforceable without regard thereto.

counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original
hereof, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to
produce or account for more than one counterpart hereof.

       16.13.      Section Headings.  Section and subsection headings in this
Agreement are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute a part of
this Agreement, and shall not affect its interpretation.

       16.14.      References.  All words used in this Agreement shall be
construed to be of such number and gender as the context requires or permits.

       16.15.      Controlling Law.  THIS AGREEMENT IS MADE UNDER, AND SHALL BE
CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF
PENNSYLVANIA APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE


                                     -39-

the parties irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the

Surviving Corporation's Board of Directors.

       16.18.      No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  No provision of this Agreement
or the Plan is intended to or shall be construed to grant or confer any right to

not limited to, any customer, prospect, supplier, employee, contractor,
salesman, agent or representative of MACESS.

       16.19.      Nature of Transactions.  The parties intend that the Merger

       16.20.      Stockholders Agent. Featheringill shall be constituted and
appointed as agent ("Stockholders Agent") for the Principals and the
Stockholders in accordance with the following:

          (a)      The Stockholders Agent shall have the full power and
authority, for and on behalf of each and all of the Principals and each and all
of the Stockholders, to give and receive notices and communications, to
authorize and object to deliveries to SunGard of Escrowed Stock (as defined in
the Escrow Agreement) in satisfaction of Indemnification Matters, to select

appropriate in the judgment of the Stockholders Agent for the accomplishment of
the foregoing.

          (b)      Notices or communications to or from the Stockholders Agent
shall constitute notices to or from each of the Principals or each of the

Stockholders Agent while acting in good faith, and any act done or omitted
pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good
faith.  The Principals or Stockholders, as appropriate, shall severally
indemnify the Stockholders Agent and hold him harmless against any loss,
liability or expense incurred without bad faith on the part of the Stockholders
Agent and arising out of or in connection with the performance of his duties and
exercise of his rights as agent hereunder.

          (d)      A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholders
Agent, taken in the manner set forth herein or in the Escrow Agreement, shall
constitute a decision, act, consent or instruction of all Principals or
Stockholders, as applicable, and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon
each of the Principals or each of the Stockholders, as applicable, and SunGard
and the Escrow Agent each may rely upon any decision, act, consent or
instruction of the Stockholders Agent taken in such manner as being the
decision, act, consent or instruction of each and every of the Principals or
Stockholders, as applicable. The Escrow Agent and SunGard each are hereby
relieved from any liability to any person for any acts done by them in
accordance with such decisions, acts, consents and instructions of the
Stockholders Agent taken in such manner.

          (e)      If Featheringill is unable to act as Stockholders Agent, then

Agent), upon not less than ten (10) days' prior written notice to SunGard and
the Escrow Agent.

       16.21.      No Offers.  THIS AGREEMENT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER TO

                 402 Office Park Drive, Suite 150
                 Birmingham, AL  35223

                 SunGard Data Systems Inc.
                 a Delaware corporation ("SunGard")
                 1285 Drummers Lane, Wayne, Pennsylvania 19087

                 SDS Merger Inc.
                 an Alabama corporation ("Newco")
                 1285 Drummers Lane, Wayne, Pennsylvania 19087

Date:            September 29, 1995

Background:  Newco is a wholly-owned subsidiary of SunGard.  MACESS, SunGard,
Newco and the principal equity owners of MACESS have entered into an Agreement
and Plan of Reorganization, dated this date (the "Reorganization Agreement"),
that contemplates the consolidation and merger of Newco with and into MACESS
(the "Merger") in accordance with the provisions of the Reorganization Agreement
and the provisions of this Agreement and Plan of Merger (this "Plan").

    Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein
and subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth herein and
in the Reorganization Agreement, the parties hereto, intending to be legally
bound, agree as follows:

    1.    Merger.  On the Effective Date (as defined below), Newco shall be
consolidated and merged with and into MACESS in accordance with the provisions
of this Plan and in compliance with the Alabama Corporation Law and any other
applicable corporate laws (the "Corporation Laws"), and the Merger shall have
the effect provided for in the Corporation Laws.  MACESS (sometimes referred to
as the "Surviving Corporation") shall be the surviving corporation of the Merger
and shall continue to exist and to be governed by the laws of the State of
Alabama.  The corporate existence and identity of MACESS, with its purposes and
powers, shall continue unaffected and unimpaired by the Merger, and MACESS shall
become a wholly-owned subsidiary of SunGard after the Effective Date.  On the
Effective Date, MACESS shall succeed to and be fully vested with the corporate
existence and identity of Newco, and the separate corporate existence and
identity of Newco shall cease.

    2.    Name.  The name of the Surviving Corporation shall be "MACESS
Corporation."

    3.    Charter.  Immediately after the Merger, the Certificate of
Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be that of MACESS immediately
before the Merger.

                                      A-1
<PAGE>
 
    4.    Bylaws.  Immediately after the Merger, the Bylaws of the Surviving
Corporation shall be those of MACESS immediately before the Merger.

    5.    Directors.  Immediately after the Merger, the directors of the
Surviving corporation shall be the following persons, who shall serve in
accordance with the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation:

                               Kenneth R. Adams
                               Lawrence A. Gross
                               Michael J. Ruane

    6.    Officers.  Immediately after the Merger, the officers of the Surviving
Corporation shall be the following persons, who shall serve in accordance with
the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation:

          Kenneth R. Adams ....... Chairman, Chief Executive Officer
          T. Alan Ritchie ........ President
          W. Sanders Pitman ...... Vice President
          Lawrence A. Gross ...... Assistant Vice President, Secretary
          Michael J. Ruane ....... Assistant Vice President, Assistant Secretary
          Andrew P. Bronstein .... Assistant Vice President, Assistant Secretary

    7.    Conversion of Newco Stock.  On the Effective Date, each share of the
total of 1,000 shares of common stock of Newco, $1.00 par value per share,
issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Date shall, by virtue of
the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be
automatically converted into and become one share of voting common stock, $0.002
par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation.  It is the intention of the
parties that, immediately after the Merger, SunGard shall own all of the issued
and outstanding capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

    8.    Conversion of MACESS Stock  On the Effective Date, each share of
capital stock of MACESS, including 1,430,100 shares of voting common stock,
$0.002 par value per share, and 5,720,400 shares of Class A non-voting common
stock, $0.002 par value per share, issued and outstanding immediately before the
Effective Date shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part
of the holder thereof, be automatically converted into and become 0.2783022 (the
"Preliminary Merger Exchange Ratio") shares of common stock of SunGard, $0.01
par value per share ("SunGard Stock"), subject to the possible adjustment
described in Section 9 of this Plan.

    9.    Possible Adjustment due to Recapitalization.  If, between the date of
this Plan and the Effective Date, there is a change in the number of issued and
outstanding shares of SunGard Stock as a result of a stock split, reverse stock
split, stock dividend, reclassification, exchange of shares or similar
recapitalization, then the Preliminary Merger Exchange Ratio shall be
appropriately adjusted.  The Preliminary Merger Exchange Ratio shall not be
adjusted as a result of any other changes in the number of issued and
outstanding shares of SunGard Stock, such as changes resulting from acquisitions
or offerings or changes resulting from exercises of stock options, purchases or
awards of stock, or similar transactions under SunGard's stock option, purchase
and award plans.  The Preliminary Merger Exchange Ratio, after adjustment in
accordance with this Section 9 (if any), shall be referred to as the "Final
Merger Exchange Ratio."

                                      A-2
<PAGE>
 
    10.  No Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of SunGard Stock shall be
issued as a result of the Merger.  In lieu of the issuance of fractional shares,
the number of shares of SunGard Stock to be issued to each stockholder of MACESS
in accordance with this Plan shall be rounded off to the nearest whole number of
shares of SunGard Stock.

    11.   MACESS Stock held by MACESS.  On the Effective Date, any shares of
MACESS Stock that are held by MACESS (as treasury shares) immediately before the
Effective Date shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part
of the holder thereof, be automatically canceled.

    12.   Exchange Procedures.  SunGard shall designate its transfer agent to
act as the "Exchange Agent" under this Plan.  As soon as is practicable after
the Effective Date, SunGard or the Exchange Agent shall mail, to each record
holder of an outstanding certificate that immediately before the Effective Date
represented shares of MACESS Stock, instructions for use in effecting the
surrender of such certificate to the Exchange Agent.  Upon the surrender of such
certificate to the Exchange Agent in accordance with such instructions, the
Exchange Agent shall exchange such certificate for (a) a new certificate
representing 90% of such number of shares of SunGard Stock into which the shares
of MACESS Stock represented by such certificate have been converted in
accordance with this Plan ("Closing Stock"), which shall be promptly delivered
to the holder, and (b) a new certificate for the balance of such number of
shares of SunGard Stock into which the share of MACESS Stock represented by such
certificate have been converted in accordance with this Plan ("Escrow Stock"),
which shall be held and distributed in escrow in accordance with the terms of
the Escrow Agreement by and among MACESS, SunGard, Newco and the non-dissenting
stockholders of MACESS and dated as of the date hereof.  If applicable, such
certificates shall be accompanied by any distributions due with respect to
shares of SunGard Stock that were paid to SunGard's stockholders of record as of
a date between the Effective Date and the date of distribution of either the
certificate representing the Closing Stock or the certificate representing the
Escrow Stock.  Until surrendered in accordance with the foregoing, each
outstanding certificate that immediately before the Effective Date represented
shares of MACESS Stock shall be deemed to evidence ownership of the number of
shares of SunGard Stock into which the shares of MACESS Stock represented by
such certificate have been converted in accordance with this Plan, subject to
the escrow requirement described above; provided, however, that any such
certificate that is not properly submitted for exchange to SunGard or the
Exchange Agent within three years after the Effective Date shall no longer
evidence ownership of shares of Closing Stock or Escrow Stock and all rights of
the holder of such certificate, as a stockholder of SunGard with respect to the
shares previously evidenced by such certificate, shall cease.

    13.   Dissenter's Rights.   Stockholders of MACESS shall be entitled to
exercise the rights of dissenting stockholders with respect to the Merger and
this Plan, as provided in the Corporation Laws.  SunGard shall be responsible
for paying all cash amounts due to dissenting stockholders of MACESS.  

    14.   Effective Date.  As used in this Plan, the "Effective Date" shall mean
the date upon which this Plan and a proper Articles of Merger for the Merger
have been duly signed and filed with the proper official of the State of
Alabama.

                                      A-3

    15.   Entire Understanding.  This Plan, together with the Reorganization
Agreement (and the Exhibits and Schedules thereto), states the entire
understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof
and supersedes all prior oral and written communications and agreements, and all
contemporaneous oral communications and agreements, with respect to the subject
matter hereof.  No amendment or modification of this Plan, and no waiver of any
provision of this Plan, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the
party against whom enforcement is sought.  MACESS may agree to any amendment or
supplement to this Plan, or a waiver of any provision of this Plan, either
before or after the approval of MACESS's stockholders is obtained (as
contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement) and without seeking further
stockholder approval, so long as such amendment, supplement or waiver does not
result in a decrease in the Preliminary Merger Exchange Ratio or have a material
adverse effect on MACESS's stockholders.  The obligations of the parties under
this Plan shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the
Reorganization Agreement.  If the Reorganization Agreement is terminated in
accordance with its terms, then this Plan shall simultaneously terminate, and
the Merger shall be abandoned without further action by the parties hereto.

    16.   Parties in Interest.  This Plan shall bind, benefit and be enforceable
by and against the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
No party hereto shall in any manner assign any of its rights or obligations
under this Plan without the express prior written consent of the other parties.
Nothing in this Plan or the Reorganization Agreement is intended to confer, or
shall be deemed to confer, any rights or remedies upon any persons other than
the parties hereto and their respective stockholders and directors.

    17.   Severability.  If any provision of this Plan is construed to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the remaining provisions hereof shall
not be affected thereby and shall be enforceable without regard thereto.

    18.   Counterparts.  This Plan may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original
hereof, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Plan to produce or
account for more than one counterpart hereof.

    19.   Section Headings.  Section and subsection headings in this Plan are
for convenience of reference only, do not constitute a part of this Plan, and
shall not affect its interpretation.

    20.   References.  All words used in this Plan shall be construed to be of
such number and gender as the context requires or permits.

    21.   Controlling Law.  This Plan is made under, and shall be construed and
enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Alabama applicable to
merger agreements made and to be performed solely therein, without giving effect
to principles of conflicts of law.

                           SUNGARD DATA SYSTEMS INC.
             ANNOUNCES NEW LINE OF BUSINESS AND MANAGEMENT CHANGES


Wayne, PA -- SunGard Data Systems Inc. announced today the acquisition of two
healthcare information systems companies that represent a new line of business
for the Company.  On August 31, 1995, SunGard completed the acquisition of
Intelus Corporation of Rockville, Maryland.  On September 29, 1995, SunGard
entered into a definitive agreement to acquire MACESS Corporation of Birmingham,
Alabama.  The acquisition of MACESS is expected to be completed in the fourth
quarter of 1995.

SunGard also announced that these two acquisitions will form the nucleus of a
new business group called SunGard Technology Systems, to be headed by Kenneth R.
Adams.  Mr. Adams has been the chief executive officer of SunGard's Recovery
Services Group since 1988.  Before that he headed SunGard's trust accounting
subsidiary.  Michael F. Mulholland, president and chief operating officer of
SunGard Recovery Services Inc., will succeed Mr. Adams as head of the Recovery
Services Group.  Mr. Mulholland, age 46, has been employed by SunGard since 1987
in various executive capacities.

Both MACESS and Intelus provide work-flow management and document imaging
systems to the healthcare industry.  The primary target market for MACESS' I-
MAX/(TM)/ product is managed healthcare providers, or HMO's.  With approximately
forty customers, including the largest managed healthcare organization in the
United States, MACESS is a leading provider in the relatively new application of
work-flow and imaging systems for the healthcare industry.  Intelus, whose
primary target market is large healthcare institutions, provides systems to
automate medical records processing for over eighty customers.  Intelus
currently is completing the first installation of its newest product, ChartFlo
2000 EMR/(R)/, an electronic medical record system based on work-flow and
imaging technology.  In addition to a primary emphasis on healthcare
applications, these products are also sold to banking and other financial
services markets.

James L. Mann, chairman and chief executive officer of SunGard, said, "We are
delighted that we have been able to establish an initial presence in the
healthcare information systems market, which we have identified as having
attractive growth prospects.  MACESS and Intelus are both fine companies, with
leading products and market positions in a relatively new and exciting
healthcare application area.  We believe that both of these acquisitions will
contribute to earnings per share in 1996 and have significant potential for
future growth.  As has been our practice in our investment support systems
business, we intend to make additional acquisitions of other strong computer
services companies in the healthcare market.  The fact that both MACESS and
Intelus have targeted financial institutions as a secondary market fits well
with existing initiatives where SunGard has strong market presence, which should
enhance the combined companies' growth prospects in these vertical markets."

Total consideration for the two transactions will be approximately 2.8 million
shares.  Each transaction will be accounted for as a pooling-of-interests.
Combined revenues of MACESS and Intelus for the first six months of 1995 were
approximately $13.6 million.  Except for merger costs, neither acquisition is
expected to have a material effect on SunGard's financial results in 1995.

SunGard's business is computer service and application software.  The Company is
the only large specialized provider of proprietary investment support systems,
is the pioneer and a leading provider of comprehensive computer disaster
recovery services, and also provides healthcare information systems.  Its common
stock is reported on The Nasdaq Stock Market and the London Stock Exchange under
the symbol SNDT.

                      TO ACQUIRE RENAISSANCE SOFTWARE INC.

Wayne, PA -- SunGard Data Systems Inc. announced today that it has entered into
a definitive agreement to acquire Renaissance Software Inc. for approximately
1,500,000 shares of SunGard common stock, subject to adjustment.  The
acquisition, which will be accounted for as a pooling-of-interests, is expected
to close in the fourth quarter of 1995.  The transaction is not expected to have
a material impact on SunGard's financial results in 1995.

Renaissance, based in Los Altos, California, is a world leader in the growing
software applications market supporting large banks and other market makers that
trade over-the-counter interest rate derivatives.  Renaissance, founded in 1989,
pioneered the use of object-oriented programming techniques in providing UNIX-
based systems focused on risk management and integrated front- to back-office
processing.  With the acquisition of Renaissance, SunGard is reorganizing its
trading and risk management businesses under the SunGard Trading Systems Group,
formerly known as the SunGard Capital Markets Group.  In addition to
Renaissance, other subsidiaries to be included in this group are SunGard Capital
Markets Inc., SunGard Futures Systems Inc., Front Capital Systems AB and
Prosoftia AB.  Evrard Van Hertsen will continue as chief executive officer of
Renaissance, reporting to Cristobal I. Conde, chief executive officer of the
group.

James L. Mann, chairman and chief executive officer of SunGard Data Systems Inc.
commented, "Renaissance is one of the world's premier providers of risk
management and derivatives trading software systems.  The acquisition of the
company is consistent with SunGard's strategy of growth through the acquisition
of successful, complementary businesses.  Renaissance will extend SunGard's
global preeminence in supplying and supporting the widest range of advanced
systems for trading, managing and controlling derivative instruments."

Mr. Van Hertsen stated, "Joining SunGard is a very positive step for Renaissance
and its clients and employees.  SunGard understands Renaissance's business and
has, through internal development and acquisition, demonstrated an ability to
sustain successful long-term product development and marketing programs."

SunGard's business is computer service and application software. The Company is
the only large specialized provider of proprietary investment support systems
and is the pioneer and a leading provider of comprehensive computer disaster
recovery services.  Its common stock is reported on The Nasdaq Stock Market and
the London Stock Exchange under the symbol SNDT.
