FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PERSHING SQUARE CAPITAL MANAGEMENT ANNOUNCES SUPPORT OF

CERIDIAN BUYOUT DEAL – PROXY CONTEST CONTINUES

New York, New York/Aug. 14, 2007/PRNewswire: Pershing Square Capital Management, L.P. announced today that it intends to fully support the proposed buyout offer of Ceridian Corporation (NYSE: CEN) by affiliates of Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. and Fidelity National Financial, Inc. (NYSE: FNF). The deal, which values Ceridian’s equity at $36 per share or approximately $5.3 billion, is slated to be voted on at Ceridian’s upcoming Annual Meeting of Stockholders currently scheduled for September 12, 2007.

Commenting on the announcement, William A. Ackman of Pershing Square stated, “We and our advisors have spent considerable time and resources reviewing alternatives for the company. We have also carefully monitored the significant developments in the credit markets. In light of current market conditions and after the completion of our review process, we are confident that the buyout offer at $36 per share is the highest all-cash price reasonably attainable for the company.”

Citing on-going concerns regarding credit and broader markets as well as the buyout group’s walk-away right if it chooses to pay a $165 million break-up fee, Pershing Square announced that it would continue to pursue its previously announced proxy contest. “We don’t want stockholders to be put in a position, however unlikely, that the deal fails and the company remains under the direction of the incumbent board for at least another 12 months,” Mr. Ackman stated.

In a proxy filing filed earlier today with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Pershing Square stated that, if elected, its nominees plan to fully support the company’s efforts to complete the transaction as soon as possible. Pershing Square also disclosed that its nominees plan to make no changes in management pending the completion of the deal.
