    <remarks>This Amended Form 4 amends Mr. Marr's Form 4 previously filed on March 5, 2007, which incorrectly reported Mr. Marr's option grant as an option to purchase 60,000 shares of Tyler Technologies common stock.  Mr. Marr was granted an option to purchase 30,000 shares, not 60,000, on March 2, 2007.</remarks>
