          NON-QUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND DISABILITY AGREEMENT
          ------------------------------------------------------------

         THIS AGREEMENT is entered into this ______ day of ______, 2001, by and
between THE REYNOLDS AND REYNOLDS COMPANY, an Ohio corporation (the
"Corporation"), and _______________________ (the "Employee").

         The Employee is a valued member of a select group of management or
highly compensated employees of the Corporation, and is currently an Officer of
the Corporation.

         The Corporation wants to encourage the Employee to stay with the
Corporation as one of its executives.

         For the preceding reasons, the Corporation previously agreed to provide
deferred compensation payments and other benefits to the Employee, subject to
the terms and conditions of a document entitled "Non-Qualified Deferred
Compensation and Disability Agreement" and dated December 20, 1984 (the "Prior
Agreement").

         The Employee and the Corporation now desire to amend and restate the
Prior Agreement to include certain Change in Control provisions and to reflect a
change in the benefit formula previously set forth on Schedule II to the Prior
Agreement.

         THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual obligations described below,
the parties agree that:

         (a)      this Agreement shall amend, restate and replace the Prior
                  Agreement; and

         (b)      upon the execution of this Agreement, the provisions of the
                  Prior Agreement shall be null and void.

         THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE as follows:

         1. DEFINITIONS. As used in this Agreement, the terms set forth below
shall have the following meanings:

         (a)      "Annual Compensation" means, for a given year, an amount equal
                  to the sum of (i) and (ii), below.

         (i) the base salary paid by the Corporation to the Employee, including
         any salary reduction amounts contributed at the election of the
         Employee for that year:

                  (1) under any tax-qualified or non-qualified deferred
                  compensation plan or agreement (other than this Agreement);
                  and

                  (2) under any plan described in Section 125 of the Internal
                  Revenue Code which is maintained by the Corporation;

                                                     AND

         (ii)     the greater of:

                  (1) the amount of any cash bonuses paid by the Corporation to
                  Employee during that year; or

                  (2) the amount of any cash bonuses accrued for payment by the
                  Corporation to Employee for that year.

                  For purposes of this clause (ii), any bonuses which are paid
                  or accrued on a basis other than an annual basis, will be
                  annualized.

                  Except as otherwise provided below and in Section 4, the
                  Annual Compensation of the Employee

                           with the Corporation, on which the Employee attains

be considered employed by the Corporation during an authorized leave of absence,
as more fully described below.

         (i) "Termination for Cause" means a termination of Employee's
employment whenever occasioned by (i) the willful and continued failure by
Employee to substantially perform duties with the Corporation (other than any
such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness) after
a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to Employee by the
Board, which demand specifically identifies the manner in which the Board
believes Employee has not substantially performed Employee's duties, or (ii) the
willful engaging by Employee in conduct which is demonstrably and materially
injurious to the Corporation or its subsidiaries, monetarily or otherwise. For
purposes of this definition, no act, or failure to act, on Employee's part shall
be deemed "willful" unless done, or omitted to be done, by Employee not in good
faith and without reasonable belief that Employee's act, or failure to act, was
in the best interest of the Corporation.

2 - DEFERRED COMPENSATION PAYMENTS. The Corporation shall begin payments under
this Agreement within thirty (30) days after the Employee's Payment Date. Unless
otherwise provided in Section 4, the amount of the payments shall be determined
as follows:

          (a)      If the Employee is an Officer described in Category A, an
                   amount equal to two hundred percent (200%) of his Annual
                   Compensation, payable in substantially equal monthly
                   installments over a period of ten (10) years;

          (b)      If the Employee is an Officer described in Category B, an
                   amount equal to one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of his
                   Annual Compensation, payable in substantially equal monthly
                   installments over a period of ten (10) years;

          (c)      If the Employee is an Officer described in Category C, an
                   amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of his Annual
                   Compensation, payable in substantially equal monthly
                   installments over a period of ten (10) years;

         Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no payment
shall be made under this Agreement by reason of the death of the Employee as a
result of suicide which occurs within two years of the date of the Prior
Agreement. The provisions of the preceding sentence shall apply whether or not
the Employee is sane at the time the suicide occurs.

         If the Employee dies while this Agreement is in effect, and:

         (i) at the time of his death, the Employee has not received all of the
         payments to which he is entitled under this Agreement; or

         (ii) payments under this Agreement begin because of the death of the
         Employee:

Any payments otherwise due shall be paid by the Corporation to a beneficiary or
beneficiaries designated by the Employee in accordance with the provisions of
Section 4.


<PAGE>


3. DISABILITY BENEFIT. If prior to attaining age fifty-five (55) Employee
becomes Disabled while employed by the Corporation, the Corporation shall make
payment(s) to Employee as provided in "Schedule I," attached hereto and made a
part hereof, until the earlier of (i) the date Employee is no longer Disabled,
(ii) the death of Employee, or (iii) attainment by Employee of age fifty-five
(55).

4. DESIGNATING A BENEFICIARY. Subject to the provisions of this Section, the
Employee may, from time to time, designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to
receive any payments under this Agreement which remain due and payable at the
time of his death. Each beneficiary must be designated by the Employee on a
written beneficiary designation form, which must be received prior to his death.
The Employee may change his designated beneficiary or beneficiaries by
submitting an appropriately completed, written beneficiary designation form to
the Chief Human Resources Officer (the "CHRO") of the Corporation prior to his
death. The beneficiary or beneficiaries currently designated by the Employee are
identified on Exhibit A, which is attached and made a part of this Agreement.

          If the Employee fails properly to designate a beneficiary, any payment
otherwise due and payable under this Agreement will be made to the Employee's
surviving spouse, if any, and otherwise to the personal representative of the
Employee's estate.

5. THE EFFECT OF PROMOTION OR DEMOTION.

         (a) Generally. If the Employee is demoted so that he remains employed
by the Corporation, but is no longer an Officer, his Annual Compensation shall
be determined as of the date he ceased to be an Officer. In order to be eligible
for payments under this Agreement, the Employee must satisfy all applicable
Service Requirements or qualify for the payment under Section 10.

         (b) Application of the Payment Formula. For purposes of applying the
payment formula contained in Section 2, the following rules shall apply. For
purposes of applying these rules, Category A shall be considered the highest
Officer category, and Category C the lowest.

          (i) if the Employee is promoted by the Corporation to a higher Officer
          category, the formula for the higher category shall apply for purposes
          of computing the payments to which the Employee (or his designated
          beneficiaries) may be entitled pursuant to Section 2; and

          (ii) if the Employee is demoted by the Corporation to a lower Officer
          category, or ceases to be an Officer, then the formula for his
          position immediately prior to the demotion shall apply for purposes of
          computing the payments to which the Employee (or his designated
          beneficiaries) may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.

6. ADMINISTRATION. The CHRO of the Corporation shall have the authority to
control and manage the operation and administration of the arrangements made by
the parties pursuant to this Agreement. The CHRO may delegate to other persons
some or all of the responsibilities of the CHRO under this Agreement. Any such
delegation may be accomplished only by delivering to the Corporation a written
instrument signed by the CHRO that specifies the nature and extent of the
responsibilities delegated and the names of the persons to whom the
responsibilities have been delegated.

          This Agreement, and any related documents, shall be retained by the
CHRO and made reasonably available for examination by the Employee. Upon written
request, those documents and other relevant information shall be provided to the
parties to this Agreement.

7. GENERAL CLAIM PROCEDURES. If a Claimant fails to receive a payment to which
he believes he is entitled under this Agreement, he may file a written claim for
the payment with the CHRO. If the claim is wholly or partially denied, written
notice of the denial will be furnished to the Claimant within a reasonable time
after the claim is filed. Each notice denying a claim shall include the
following information:

         (a) the reason or reasons the claim was denied;

         (b) a specific reference to the provision of this Agreement upon which
         the denial is based;

         (c) a description of any additional material or information necessary
         for the Claimant to perfect the claim; and

<PAGE>

         (d) an explanation of the claim appeal procedures described in Section
         8, below.

8. APPEAL PROCEDURES. Subject to the requirements of this Section, a Claimant
may appeal the denial of a claim. Appeals must be filed in writing with the CHRO
not later than 60 days after the Claimant receives written notice that the claim
has been denied. As a part of the appeal process, the Claimant may review
pertinent documents, submit written comments and request that a hearing be held
to consider the appeal.

          The decision to hold a hearing to consider the appeal shall be within
the sole discretion of the CHRO, whether or not the Claimant requests a hearing.

          Except as provided below, each appeal will be decided not later than
60 days after the CHRO receives the written appeal. If, however, special
circumstances require an extension of time for deciding an appeal, a decision
shall be rendered within a reasonable period of time, but not later than 120
days after the CHRO receives the written appeal and any additional information
submitted by the Claimant in accordance with this Section.

          Appeal decisions shall be written and shall include the specific
reason(s) for the decision and the specific reference(s) to the pertinent
provisions of this Agreement on which the decision is based.

9.    SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. All payments under this Agreement shall be made solely
from the general assets of the Corporation. No such assets shall be segregated
or placed in trust to secure the performance of the obligations of the
Corporation under this Agreement.

          The Corporation may, however, in its sole discretion, purchase one or
more policies of insurance with respect to Employee, the proceeds of which may,
but need not, be used by the Corporation to satisfy part or all of its
obligations under this Agreement. The Corporation will be the owner of any such
policy. Neither the Employee nor any other person or entity claiming through the
Employee shall have any rights with respect to any such policy or to the
proceeds of any such policy. As a condition of receiving any benefits under this
Agreement, the Employee, on behalf of himself and any person or entity claiming
through him, agrees to cooperate with the Corporation in obtaining any insurance
policy that the Corporation chooses to purchase with respect to the Employee by
submitting to such physical examinations, completing such forms, and making such
records available as may be required from time to time.

          The rights under this Agreement of the Employee and any person or
entity claiming through him shall be solely those of an unsecured, general
creditor of the Corporation. No insurance policy or other asset of the
Corporation shall be held by the Corporation for or on behalf of Employee, or
any other person, or constitute security for the performance of any obligations
of the Corporation under this Agreement.

10. CHANGE IN CONTROL. (a) (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, if within twenty-four (24) months following a Change
in Control of the Corporation Employee's employment is terminated by the
Corporation (other than a "Termination for Cause" (as defined above)), or
Employee terminates his employment for Good Reason, and Employee has attained at
least one year of service as an Officer of the Corporation as of the date of
such Change in Control, Employee shall be entitled to a lump sum payment equal
to the present value of the benefit he would have received pursuant to Section 2
of the Agreement as if the requirements of Employee's Payment Date had been
satisfied, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of (x)
Employee's whole and fractional years of service with the Corporation as of such
date of termination and (y) the number of whole and fractional years during
which Employee receives severance benefits pursuant to any employment or
severance agreement entered into with the Corporation, and the denominator of
which is fifteen (15), such fraction not to exceed one (1). (ii) If Employee has
commenced receiving benefits under Section 2 of the Agreement as of the date of
such Change in Control, Employee shall be entitled to receive a lump sum payment
equal to the present value of the remaining payments he would have been entitled
to receive pursuant to Section 2. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the
present value of the payments made pursuant to Section 2 shall be calculated
using the interest rate applied by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation in
valuing lump sum distributions that is in effect (A) for purposes of clause (i),
above, on the date of Employee's termination of employment and (B) for purposes
of clause (ii), above, on the date of such Change in Control.

11. INDEPENDENCE OF AGREEMENT. Except as otherwise expressly provided, this
Agreement is independent of, and in addition to, any other employment agreement,
employee benefit plan, or agreement, or other

<PAGE>


right that the Employee may have as a result of his employment by the
Corporation. This Agreement is not a contract of employment between the Employee
and the Corporation. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to limit
or restrict:

         (a) the right of the Corporation to discharge the Employee, with or
         without cause; or

         (b) the right of Employee to terminate his employment with the
         Corporation.

12. ACCELERATION OF PAYMENTS. The Corporation reserves the right to accelerate
the payment of any benefits payable under this Agreement without the consent of
the Employee, his estate, his designated beneficiaries, or any other person
claiming through the Employee.

13. LEAVES OF ABSENCE. The Corporation may, in its sole discretion, permit the
Employee to take one or more leaves of absence. No such leave of absence shall
exceed one year, however. For purposes of the Agreement, including the
provisions relating to the Service Requirement, the Employee will be considered
employed by the Corporation during an authorized leave of absence.

14. LEGAL EFFECT. Neither party makes any representations or warranties, express
or implied, or assumes any responsibility concerning the legal, tax, or other
implications or effects of this Agreement. The Corporation may take all actions
required by law with respect to any payments due under this Agreement, or any
other compensation or benefits due to the Employee, including withholding of tax
from such payments, compensation or benefits.

15. FACILITY OF PAYMENT. If, for any reason, the identity or legal capacity of
any person to whom payments are to be made under this Agreement is in doubt, the
Corporation may withhold payment until instructed by a final order of a court of
competent jurisdiction. If the Employee or any designated beneficiary of the
Employee is declared legally incompetent, the Corporation may make payment of
any amounts due under this Agreement to the person legally charged with his or
her care. Any payment made by the Corporation in good faith shall fully
discharge the Corporation from its obligation with respect to that payment.

16. ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS. Except as expressly permitted by this Agreement,
neither the Employee nor anyone claiming through him may sell, assign, transfer
or pledge the right to receive any payments to which he is or may become
entitled under this Agreement. No right to receive payments under this Agreement
shall be subject to the claims of creditors of the Employee or anyone claiming
through him, or to any legal, equitable, or other proceeding or process for the
enforcement of such claims.

17. CORPORATE REORGANIZATION. The Corporation shall not merge or consolidate
with any other entity unless and until such other entity expressly assumes the
obligations of the Corporation under this Agreement.

18. SECTION HEADINGS. The Section headings used in this Agreement are for
convenience of reference only, and shall not be considered in construing this
Agreement.

19. AMENDMENT. This Agreement may be amended, but only with the consent of the
Corporation and the Employee (or, after the death of the Employee, his
designated beneficiaries or the executor or administrator of any estate to which
payments are owed). Any amendment must be in writing signed by all parties who
are to be legally bound by it. Any attempt to modify or amend this Agreement
which does not satisfy the preceding requirements shall be null and void, and
shall have no legal effect.

20. BINDING EFFECT. Except as otherwise provided in Section 16, this Agreement
shall be binding upon Employee and his heirs, executors, administrators, assigns
and upon anyone claiming through him, and upon the Corporation and its
successors and assigns.

21. GOVERNING LAW. The laws of the State of Ohio shall, to the extent not
preempted by applicable Federal law, govern the construction of this Agreement.

         TO EVIDENCE THEIR AGREEMENT, the Corporation, by a duly authorized
officer, and the Employee have executed this document on the day and year first
above written.
