The following is the text of an advertisement for The Reynolds and Reynolds
Company to appear in Automotive News:

                                YOU'RE THE BOSS.

                                YOU HAVE MY WORD.

With the recent announcement that Reynolds and Reynolds and Universal Computer
Systems, Inc. (UCS), have agreed to merge our two organizations and create the
world's pre-eminent dealer services company, two questions have emerged:

o        Who's Fin's new boss?
o        Who's Reynolds' new boss?

The answer to both questions is simple--

YOU, OUR CUSTOMER.

As the chief executive officer of the combined company following the merger, I
give you my word that we will be driven by our number one rule: The customer is
the boss and the reason we're in business.

Going forward, the combined company will be known as The Reynolds and Reynolds
Company. More importantly, it will be the Reynolds brand and way of doing
business that will define the company. This means that you can trust the
business practices, dedication and world-class people, solutions, documents,
services and support that more than 18,000 Reynolds dealers worldwide have come
to rely upon.

It also means that you will have even greater choices under the REYNOLDSYSTEM
(TM)brand. Both Reynolds ERA(R) and UCS POWER(R) solutions will continue to be
sold,installed, supported and enhanced for years to come. You can rest assured
that your investments will be protected and strengthened regardless of your UCS
or Reynolds platform.

I look forward to Working for You as we create a stronger Reynolds and
Reynolds--one with new resources, new capabilities and new choices for our
dealers. Most importantly, I look forward to extending the Reynolds way of doing
business.
