GEAC OBTAINS NEW $150 MILLION REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY
FROM BANKING SYNDICATE LED BY BANK OF AMERICA

MARKHAM, Ontario and SOUTHBOROUGH, Massachusetts – August 11,  2005 – Geac Computer Corporation Limited (TSX: GAC and NASDAQ: GEAC), a global enterprise software company that addresses the needs of CFOs, today announced a new five-year, $150 million revolving credit facility in favor of itself and certain of its subsidiaries with a banking syndicate led by Bank of America, N.A.  The new facility replaces the Company’s existing $50 million, fully-secured credit facility with Wells Fargo Foothill due to expire on September 9, 2006.  The new facility is secured only by the stock of certain of the Company’s material subsidiaries.

“The terms of this credit facility reflect our progress in strengthening Geac’s balance sheet and the consistency of our profitable operating results,” said Donna de Winter, Chief Financial Officer of Geac. “The new facility provides us with more favorable pricing, more flexible terms and a higher borrowing capacity that will put us at a competitive advantage in executing our stated acquisition strategy, which is critical as we continue to look for opportunities to grow our revenue, increase our customer base and expand our products.”

Under the new five-year credit facility, the LIBOR based rate ranges between LIBOR plus 125 and 175 basis points, and the prime based rate ranges between prime plus 25 and 75 basis points.

The initial syndicate consists of Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Citibank, N.A., as Syndication Agent, and Wachovia Bank, as Documentation Agent, with other lenders including JP Morgan Chase, Key Bank, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Malayan Banking Berhad and Standard Federal Bank.  The transaction was oversubscribed.
