In a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 8, 2013, SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. (“SS&C”) reported the election of Michael E. Daniels as a director of SS&C. At the time of his election, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) had not determined Mr. Daniels’ director compensation or any Board committee assignments. On November 5, 2013, the Board approved certain compensation arrangements with Mr. Daniels, as described below, and appointed him to the Nominating Committee of the Board.

The Board approved the payment of a pro-rated annual retainer fee of $25,000 to Mr. Daniels (the same retainer fee as paid to all other outside directors, other than directors affiliated with The Carlyle Group) and ratified its existing policies of paying outside directors (other than directors affiliated with The Carlyle Group) $2,500 for each board meeting attended in person and reimbursing all outside directors for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with service on the Board. Mr. Daniels was also granted an option to purchase 21,250 shares of SS&C’s common stock with an exercise price of $41.42, which was equal to the closing price of SS&C’s common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the grant date, November 5, 2013. The option was 100% vested on the grant date.
