All Hands Meeting FAQ:

How will our business change because of this transaction?

This announcement has minimal impact on our day-to-day operations – it will remain business as usual. All employees should remain focused and continue the work that has been the foundation for our recent strong results. We will continue to operate as a public company until the transaction closes which we expect to occur in the fourth quarter.

Going forward after the transaction’s close, employees will benefit from the continuity of a solid business plan and new investments in the future of the business. We believe THL Partners and Fidelity National Financial bring complementary skills which will help us build upon our leadership position and implement our strategic plan to deliver enhanced value to our customers around the world.

What involvement will the new owners have in our business?

While we will change ownership, we expect that management will remain in place. THL Partners and FNF have said they have been extremely impressed with our management team. They fully support our vision and commitment to all of our customers and employees.

How will the deal impact my job and my benefits?

As a result of this transaction, there are no plans to change our current compensation and benefits program. However, as we do on a regular basis, we will continue to look at ways to make our plans more cost effective and marketplace competitive.

What are the benefits of being private? Do we lose anything about not being public?

The transaction will bring a change in ownership, not a change in management or the direction of our company. There will be changes but they are changes designed to make Ceridian a stronger company. As we’ve said, we expect this transaction to have minimal impact on our day-to-day operations, and will not have any impact on our relationships with our customers.

What will the impact be to customers?

As we have said, this transaction will not have any impact on the offerings we present to our customers or in any way alter the terms their contracts with Ceridian.

Our chief priority remains to make our products and services even better and deliver repeatable and reliable service at unmatched industry levels. In the end, this transaction is about enabling Ceridian to achieve its full potential so that we can better meet your needs.

Why is this called a merger?

THL Partners and Fidelity National Financial are using a merger structure to effect the acquisition of 100% of the Company’s common stock. They have created a new company that will merge into Ceridian, subject to shareholder approval and satisfaction of the other conditions. The terms of the merger provide all of the shares of common stock are cashed out at $36 per share. Ceridian will remain intact, but after the merger, it will be privately owned by THL Partners and Fidelity National Financial, and any other investors they may bring in.
