                 RANGER GOVERNANCE ISSUES STATEMENT REGARDING
                         PROXY MONITOR RECOMMENDATION

Dallas, TX, August 13, 2001 - Ranger Governance, Ltd. today issued the following
statement regarding Proxy Monitor's recommendation on the election of directors
at Computer Associates' (NYSE: CA) annual meeting of shareholders on August 29,
2001:

         "Ranger Governance believes that CA's board and top
         management needs to be replaced in order to unlock the
         shareholder value that is hidden within the Company. Ranger
         has a comprehensive plan that it believes will unlock that
         value by changing CA's culture and structure through
         corporate governance, accountable and flexible management and
         a strategy for rapid growth. ISS and now Proxy Monitor agree
         that CA needs to change. The central issue remains: change is
         necessary and we believe that it cannot and will not be
         accomplished by the current Board. The Ranger nominees have
         committed to implementing these necessary changes at CA."

In its report, Proxy Monitor noted that:

"The other Ranger nominees, while lacking the name recognition of some members
of the incumbent board, have considerable combined experience in the technology
industry, including expertise in systems software."*

"Indeed, Ranger has put forth a governance plan for Computer Associates that is
a model of propriety."*

"All things considered, we agree with Mr. Wyly that the decline in the company's
market value reflects not just the downturn in technology investment, but inept
management as well."*

"The three [Wang, Kumar, and Artzt] hit the jackpot on May 22, 1998, when the
split-adjusted shares reached $53.33 per share, and they collected shares then
worth $1.1 billion.  The charge against earnings from the awards transformed a
profitable quarter into one with a loss of $480 million."*

"Computer Associates has constituents other than shareholders who also appear to
have been offended by management.  It seems fair to say that the company seems
to have operated with a certain amount of hubris vis-a-vis its clients. ...Many
clients have been known to complain about CA's pricing policies and the quality
of its customer service and support."*
