Ceridian Comments on Pershing Square Proxy Materials

Ceridian Corporation (NYSE: CEN) today issued the following statement with respect to the preliminary proxy materials filed by Pershing Square Capital Management, L.P. on July 24, 2007: "Following a thorough and publicly announced exploration of strategic alternatives, the Ceridian Board determined that a sale of the company for $36 per share was in the best interests of all Ceridian stockholders and provided the greatest and most certain value of the available alternatives. On June 13, 2007, and again last week, we made clear to Pershing Square and our other stockholders that we will consider any superior economic proposal that Pershing Square or any other party may wish to make. Pershing Square has failed to date to present any economic proposal for the Company and its stockholders. While we regret that Pershing Square has resorted to personal attacks, we continue to be focused on the operations of our Company and on providing stockholders the opportunity to vote on both the pending merger and the Board of Directors. These are very important matters and we urge stockholders to consider the issues and economic choice closely. The Board recommends that Ceridian stockholders approve the pending merger and receive $36 per share in cash and vote for the Company’s slate of directors who will work to close the transaction as quickly as the agreement permits.” ABOUT CERIDIAN Ceridian Corporation (www.ceridian.com) is a business services company that helps its customers maximize the power of their people, lower their costs and focus on what they do best.
