Crescendo Comments on its Director Nominees for the Board of Geac.

NEW YORK -- Crescendo Investments II, LLC ("Crescendo Investments") on behalf of Crescendo Partners II, L.P., Series F ("Crescendo Partners") today responded to Geac's misleading press release regarding the change of the Crescendo nominee to the board of directors of Geac Computer Corporation Limited.

Mr. Eric Rosenfeld, President of Crescendo Partners said, "We understand that Geac exerted pressure on Updata to have Mr. Gerry Smith withdraw from the Crescendo slate. This created the conflict that Mr. Smith had not anticipated. It is disingenuous that after having caused Mr. Smith's withdrawal, Geac would then turn around and characterize the events the way they have".

Mr. Rosenfeld continued, "We are confident that Geac shareholders will not be fooled by steps taken to avoid providing Geac shareholders with an opportunity to consider Mr. Smith for their board. In any case, Crescendo has been able to attract an extremely qualified candidate in Mr. Dennis Conroy who will be able to draw upon his extensive experience in the IT sector to protect the interests of all shareholders. We prefer to focus on the real issue at hand - the future strategic direction of Geac".
