                  which will now be available for issue upon exercise of Options
                  granted under the Plan;

            (ii)  the 3,262,530 Shares issuable upon exercise of options
                  previously granted under Prior Plans which options will
                  continue to be subject to such Prior Plans unless such options
                  are surrendered in accordance with the terms of such Prior
                  Plans, terminate or expire without being exercised in whole or
                  in part in which case new Options may be granted under the
                  Plan covering the Shares not purchased under such surrendered,

                  the terms thereof, terminate or expire without being exercised
                  in whole or in part in which case new Options may be granted

            (iv)  an additional 4,571,582 Shares not previously available under
                  the Prior Plans or upon exercise of any previously granted
                  options and which are now available for issue upon exercise of
                  Options granted under the Plan.

      In addition, the maximum aggregate number of shares reserved for issue at
      any time upon the exercise of Options granted to Insiders shall not exceed
      10% of the total number of Shares then outstanding. The aggregate number
      of Shares reserved for issue to any one person upon the exercise of
      Options shall not exceed 5% of the total number of Shares then
      outstanding. In addition, the maximum number of Shares issuable to
      Insiders pursuant to the Plan and any other Share Compensation
      Arrangement, within a one-year period, shall not exceed 10% of the total
      number of Shares then outstanding. The maximum number of Shares issuable
      to any one Insider and the associates of such Insider pursuant to the Plan
      and any other Share Compensation Arrangement, within a one-year period,

      purposes of this Section 2.06 the number of Shares then outstanding shall
      mean the number of Shares outstanding on a non-diluted basis immediately
      prior to the proposed grant of the applicable Option or issue of Shares,
      as the case may be, excluding Shares issued pursuant to Share Compensation
      Arrangements over the preceding one-year period. If the Corporation
      repurchases for cancellation Shares such that any of the foregoing
      percentage tests are not met following such repurchase, this shall not
      constitute non-compliance under the Plan for any Options then outstanding.

Section 2.07 GRANT OF OPTIONS TO ELIGIBLE DIRECTORS: The aggregate number of
Options which may be granted under this Plan to Eligible Directors who are not
employees or officers of the Corporation or a Designated Subsidiary as a group
shall not exceed 360,000, provided that, subject to regulatory approval, such
number may be increased to a number equal to the product of 40,000 multiplied by
the number of Eligible Directors who are not employees or officers of the
Corporation or a Designated Subsidiary. To the extent that Options are exercised
by Eligible Directors who are not employees or officers of the Corporation or a
Designated Subsidiary, the aggregate number of Options available will be reduced
by the number of Options so exercised.

may be exercised unless the Optionee at the time of exercise thereof is:

      (a)   in the case of an Eligible Employee, an officer of the Corporation
            or a Designated Subsidiary or in the employment of the Corporation
            or a Designated Subsidiary and has been continuously an officer or

            Designated Subsidiary shall not be considered an interruption of
            employment for purposes of the Plan;

      (b)   in the case of an Eligible Director, a Director or a director of a

representative, legatee or distributee of any Optionee, under the terms of the
Plan. Subject to Section 3.11 hereof, upon an Optionee exercising an Option and
paying the Corporation the aggregate purchase price for the Shares in respect of

practicable issue and deliver a certificate representing the Shares so
purchased.

Optionee under the Option shall pass by the will of the Optionee or the laws of
descent and distribution for a period of twelve months after the date of death
of the Optionee or prior to the expiration of the Option Period in respect of
the Option, whichever is sooner.

            (and is not or does not continue to be an employee thereof); or

      (b)   cease to be employed by, or provide services to, or be an officer of
            the Corporation or any of its Designated Subsidiaries (and is not or

            Subsidiaries of the termination of his or her Employment Contract;

            such Plan Member's Options shall expire and terminate immediately
            upon the date of such Termination; and

      (b)   in the event an Eligible Employee retires from service to the
            Corporation or a Designated Subsidiary in accordance with the
            retirement policy of the Corporation as it may exist from time to
            time ("Retirement"), such Plan Member may for a period of one year
            following such Retirement, exercise his or her Options which have
            vested or shall vest within such one year period following
            Retirement, provided that in no event shall such right extend beyond
            the Option Period.

Section 4.01 NON-QUALIFYING PLAN: The Plan is not meant to qualify as an
incentive stock option plan pursuant to section 422 of the Internal Revenue

Section 4.02 WITHHOLDING TAXES: The Corporation or any Designated Subsidiary may

Securities Act or the securities laws of any state of the United States of
America may be required to represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree that:

            registration under the U.S. Securities Act or to be qualified under
            the securities laws of any state of the United States of America;

            Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act, and in compliance with
            applicable local laws and regulations, the foregoing legend may be
            removed by providing a declaration addressed to the Corporation and
            the registrar and transfer agent for the Shares to the following
            effect:

            "The undersigned (a) acknowledges that the sale of the

      (d)   other than as contemplated by Subsection 4.03(c) hereof, prior to
            making any disposition of any Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan
            which might be subject to the registration requirements of the U.S.
            Securities Act, the Plan Member shall give written notice to the
            Corporation describing the manner of the proposed disposition and
            containing such other information as is necessary to enable counsel
            for the Corporation to determine whether registration under the U.S.
            Securities Act or qualification under any securities laws of any
            state of the United States of America is required in connection with
            the proposed disposition and whether the proposed disposition is
            otherwise in compliance with such legislation and the regulations
            thereto;

      (e)   other than as contemplated by Subsection 4.03(c) hereof, the Plan
            Member will not attempt to effect any disposition of the Shares
            owned by the Plan Member and acquired pursuant to the Plan or of any
            interest therein which might be subject to the registration
            requirements of the U.S. Securities Act in the absence of an
            effective registration statement relating thereto under the U.S.
            Securities Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory in form and
            substance to counsel for the Corporation that such disposition would
            not constitute a violation of the U.S. Securities Act and then will
            only dispose of such Shares in the manner so proposed;

      (f)   the Corporation may place a notation on the records of the
            Corporation to the effect that none of the Shares acquired by the
            Plan Member pursuant to the Plan shall be transferred unless the
            provisions of the Plan have been complied with; and

      (g)   the effect of these restrictions on the disposition of the Shares
            acquired by the Plan Member pursuant to the Plan is such that the
            Plan Member may not be able to sell or otherwise dispose of such
            Shares for a considerable length of time in a transaction which is
            subject to the provisions of the U.S. Securities Act other than as
            contemplated by Subsection 4.03(c) hereof.

<PAGE>
                                       4

      quarters have elapsed since the effective date of termination of his
      membership and such renewal of membership will become effective as of the

      Employee's Subscription Form to renew membership at least five (5)
      business days prior to the commencement of such fiscal quarter; otherwise
      renewal of membership will become effective as of the commencement of the

4.3   The Corporation will provide each Plan Member with the following:

      (a)   a copy of the Plan; and

      (b)   any other information regarding the Plan required to be provided,
            and in a manner prescribed, under any applicable law.

5.    PLAN MEMBERS' PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS

5.1   An Employee in applying for membership in the Plan shall in the
      Subscription Form designate that one of two per cent (2%), five per cent
      (5%) or ten per cent (l0%) of his Base Salary is to be deducted from his
      salary payments for the purpose of purchasing Common Shares under this
      Plan.

5.2   A Plan Member may from time to time change the amount so designated under
      subsection 5.1, with respect to the fiscal quarter and all subsequent
      fiscal quarters, from one of two per cent (2%), five per cent (5%), or ten
      per cent (10%) to either of such other percentages by submitting to Geac a
      Subscription Form for this purpose at least five (5) business days prior
      to the commencement of the fiscal quarter in which such change of
      designated percentage is to take effect; otherwise the change of
      designated percentage will take effect in the next following fiscal
      quarter. Such a change may be made only once in each fiscal year of Geac
      unless the change is in connection with the commencement or termination of
      a leave of absence or short-term disability, or unless compliance with
      this provision is waived by Geac.

5.3   Payroll deductions will be made from a Plan Member's payroll in each
      regular payroll period after the commencement of his membership in the
      Plan. The amount of payroll deduction in each regular payroll period shall
      be equal to the product of a Plan Member's Base Salary multiplied by the
      percentage designated by the Plan Member under subsection 5.1. In the
      event a Plan Member changes his designation of payroll deduction
      percentage in accordance with subsection 5.2, the amount of the payroll
      deduction shall be adjusted accordingly. In the event a Plan Member's
      membership in the Plan is terminated in accordance with Sections 8, 9 and
      13 herein, the payroll deductions will discontinue as provided in Sections
      8, 9 and 13.

5.4   An individual bookkeeping account shall be maintained under the Plan for
      each Plan Member. The amounts deducted from a Plan Member's payroll shall
      be credited to the Plan Member's account under the Plan and shall
      constitute subscriptions by the Plan
<PAGE>
                                       5

      Member for Common Shares under the Plan. No interest shall accrue to a
      Plan Member in respect of the amounts credited to the Plan Member's
      account under the Plan.

5.5   All amounts credited to Plan Members' accounts under the Plan shall be the
      property of Geac, subject to subsections 8.2, 9.2 and 13.2 herein. All
      payroll deductions made under the Plan shall be deposited with the general
      funds of the Corporation and may be used by the Corporation for any
      corporate purpose.

6.    QUARTERLY PURCHASE OF COMMON SHARES

6.1   Subject to the provisions in Section 12 herein, as of each Purchase Date,
      Geac shall issue to each Plan Member from treasury that number of Common
      Shares (rounded downward to the nearest whole number of shares) determined
      by dividing the balance of the amount credited to a Plan Member's account
      under the Plan on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately before
      the Purchase Date by a number equal to ninety per cent (90%) of the lesser
      of (i) the Quarterly Weighted Arithmetic Mean, and (ii) the arithmetic
      mean of the weighted average trading price for the Common Shares on the
      TSE for each of the last five (5) business days on which such Common
      Shares were traded during the fiscal quarter immediately before the
      Purchase Date (such number is hereinafter referred to as the "Subscription
      Price").

6.2   Concurrently with the issuance of Common Shares in accordance with
      subsection 6.1, the balance of the Plan Member's account under the Plan
      shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of the Subscription Price for all
      Common Shares issued to such Plan Member pursuant to subsection 6.1 on
      that Purchase Date. Any balance remaining in the Plan Member's account
      under the Plan shall be applied towards the Plan Member's future quarterly
      purchases of Common Shares pursuant to this Plan.

7.    ISSUANCE OF SHARE CERTIFICATES

7.1   Upon the issuance of Common Shares by Geac to Plan Members in each fiscal
      quarter, Geac shall direct Computershare Trust Company of Canada, or any
      other person acting as the registrar and transfer agent for the Common
      Shares, to issue Common Share certificates to the Plan Members with each
      certificate representing the number of Common Shares purchased by each
      Plan Member in that fiscal quarter; such certificate shall be sent, as
      promptly as practicable, by regular mail to the address of the Plan Member
      indicated in the Subscription Form or as otherwise notified to Geac in
      writing by the Plan Member.

8.    TERMINATION OF MEMBERSHIP BY PLAN MEMBER

8.1   A Plan Member may voluntarily terminate his membership in the Plan
      effective with respect to a fiscal quarter and all succeeding fiscal
      quarters by delivering to Geac a signed Notice of Termination in the form
      of Exhibit "B" annexed hereto. The termination will take effect on the
      date (the "Voluntary Termination Date") described as follows:
<PAGE>
                                       6

      (a)   if the Corporation receives the Notice of Termination at least
            thirty (30) days before the end of a fiscal quarter, the Voluntary
            Termination Date shall be the last day of that fiscal quarter; or

      (b)   if the Corporation receives the Notice of Termination within thirty
            (30) days before the end of a fiscal quarter, the Voluntary
            Termination Date shall be the last day of the fiscal quarter
            following the fiscal quarter in which the Notice of Termination is
            received by the Corporation.

8.2   The Corporation shall not proceed with the issue of the Common Shares to
      the Plan Member that has delivered a Notice of termination for the fiscal
      quarter in which the Voluntary Termination Date occurs. The Corporation
      shall, as promptly as practicable after the Voluntary Termination Date,
      pay to the terminating Plan Member, without interest, any remaining
      balance of the Plan Member's account under the Plan which has not, as of
      the Voluntary Termination Date, been used to purchase Common Shares under
      the Plan. No further payroll deductions will be made from the terminating
      Plan Member's Base Salary for the purchase of Common Shares on and from
      the Voluntary Termination Date.

9.    AUTOMATIC TERMINATION

9.1   Membership in the Plan automatically terminates when an Employee ceases to
      be an Employee of Geac or a Subsidiary eligible to participate in the
      Plan, whether by reason of death, retirement, voluntary resignation or
      termination by Geac or the Subsidiary by which the Employee was employed,
      whether for "cause" or otherwise, or for any other reason whatsoever. The
      termination will take effect on the date (the "Automatic Termination
      Date") an Employee ceases to be an Employee of Geac or a Subsidiary
      eligible to participate in the Plan without taking into account any
      periods provided for notice of termination purposes.

9.2   Upon termination of membership of a Plan Member in the Plan as provided in
      subsection 9.1, except by reason of death, the Corporation shall, as
      promptly as practicable after the Automatic Termination Date, pay to the
      terminating Plan Member, without interest, any remaining balance of the
      Plan Member's account under the Plan which has not, as of the Automatic
      Termination Date, been used to purchase Common Shares under the Plan. No
      further payroll deductions will be made from the terminating Plan Member's
      Base Salary for the purchase of Common Shares on and from the Automatic
      Termination Date

9.3   Upon the death of a Plan Member, the balance of the deceased Plan Member's
      account under the Plan at the time of death, together with any payroll
      deduction from the deceased Plan Member's final salary payment under the
      Plan, shall continue to be credited to the Plan Member's account under the
      Plan until the end of the fiscal quarter in which the death occurs. At
      such fiscal quarter end, Common Shares shall be issued in the name of the
      last beneficiary(ies) designated under the Plan by the deceased Plan
      Member, or in the name of the deceased Plan Member if no beneficiary is
      designated under the
<PAGE>
                                       7

      Plan. The share certificate(s) shall be forwarded, and any remaining
      balance of the deceased Plan Member's account under the Plan shall be paid
      without interest and forwarded: (a) to the last beneficiary designated in
      a Subscription Form by the Plan Member, (b) in the absence of such a
      designated beneficiary, to the executor or administrator of the Plan
      Member's estate, or (c) if no such executor or administrator has been
      appointed to the knowledge of the Corporation, to such other person(s) as
      the Corporation may, in its discretion, designate.

10.   ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

10.1  The Plan shall be administered by the Corporation in accordance with its
      provisions. The Corporation may, from time to time, establish
      administrative rules and regulations relating to the operation of the Plan
      as it may deem necessary to further the purpose of the Plan and amend or
      repeal such rules and regulations. The Corporation, in its discretion, may
      appoint a Committee for the purpose of interpreting, administering and
      implementing the Plan. The Corporation may also delegate to any director,
      officer or employee of the Corporation such administrative duties and
      powers relating to the administration of the Plan as the Corporation may
      see fit.

10.2  If considered advisable, the Corporation may appoint a third party to
      administer the Plan.

10.3  Geac shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
      establishment and administration of the Plan.

11.   LISTING ON THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE

11.1  Subject to Section 13, Geac shall use its best efforts to ensure that all
      Common Shares issued to Plan Members pursuant to the Plan are listed for
      trading on the TSE.

12.   RESTRICTIONS ON NUMBER OF COMMON SHARES ISSUABLE UNDER THE PLAN

12.1  The maximum number of Common Shares available for issue to Plan Members
      under the Plan shall be 600,000 Common Shares. Such maximum number
      excludes the number of all Common Shares issued under Geac's previous
      Employee Stock Ownership Plans and the number of any Common Shares issued
      or reserved for issuance under any of Geac's Employee Stock Option Plans.

12.2  The Board from time to time may increase or decrease such maximum number
      of Common Shares available for issue to Plan Members, so long as such
      maximum number is in accordance with the requirements of the TSE and
      applicable securities legislation in effect from time to time.

12.3  If on a given Purchase Date the number of Common Shares required to be
      issued under the Plan exceeds the number of Common Shares then available
      under the Plan or if there
<PAGE>
                                       8

      are no Common Shares then available for issue under the Plan, the
      Corporation may, in its absolute discretion:

      (a)   make a pro rata allocation of the Common Shares remaining available
            for purchase in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as
            it shall determine to be equitable; or

      (b)   suspend the issuance of Common Shares under the Plan until such
            subsequent Purchase Date on which Common Shares are again available
            for issuance under the Plan. Payroll deductions shall continue to be
            made under the Plan and credited to the Plan Members' accounts under
            the Plan during the suspension period. Common Shares shall be issued
            on such subsequent Purchase Date by applying the balance of the Plan
            Members' accounts under the Plan on such subsequent Purchase Date at
            the Subscription Price as at such subsequent Purchase Date.

12.4  No Employee shall be eligible to purchase Common Shares through the Plan
      if such purchase would result in such Employee holding in excess of five
      per cent (5%) of the issued and outstanding Common Shares.

12.5  The issuance, within a one year period, of Common Shares issued pursuant
      to all Share Compensation Arrangements may not exceed ten percent (10%) of
      the Outstanding Issue.

12.6  Not more than 50% of the Common Shares issuable under the Plan may be
      issued to Insiders.

12.7  Notwithstanding any of the provisions in this Section 12, the issuance to
      any one Insider (including the Insider's associates), within a one year
      period, of Common Shares issued pursuant to all Share Compensation
      Arrangements may not exceed five percent (5%) of the Outstanding Issue and
      the issuance to all Insiders, within a one year period, of Common Shares
      issued pursuant to all Share Compensation Arrangements may not exceed ten
      percent (10%) of the Outstanding Issue.

13.   AMENDMENT

13.1  The Corporation reserves the right at any time to amend, suspend or
      terminate, in whole or in part, the Plan, including such amendments to the
      Plan as may be necessary or desirable in the opinion of the Corporation to
      comply with the rules or regulations of any governmental authority or
      stock exchange that apply to the Plan, provided however that (a) any
      approvals required under any applicable law are obtained, and (b) no such
      amendment or termination shall be made at any time which has the effect of
      adversely affecting the existing rights of Plan Members in respect of
      Employee Shares which have been acquired by the Plan Members under the
      Plan prior to the date of such amendment or termination without those Plan
      Members' consent in writing. To the extent reasonably
<PAGE>
                                       9

      practicable, Plan Members will be given at least thirty (30) days notice
      of any amendment to, or termination of, the Plan.

13.2  To the extent reasonably practicable, termination of the Plan by Geac
      shall take effect as of the end of a fiscal quarter. No Common Shares will
      be issued in the fiscal quarter in which Geac terminates the Plan. All
      payroll deductions for the purchase of Common Shares under the Plan shall
      discontinue on and from the time of termination. The balance remaining in
      each Plan Member's account under the Plan at the time of termination shall
      be returned to the Plan Member, without interest.

14.   GENERAL PROVISIONS

14.1  Rights and interests under this Plan are not transferable by a Plan Member
      either by voluntary assignment or by operation of law except by death or
      mental incompetency. Any attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other
      disposition other than as described in the preceding sentence shall be
      without effect, except that the Corporation may treat such act as an
      election to terminate the membership in the Plan in accordance with
      subsection 8.1 hereof.

14.2  Participation in the Plan shall be entirely optional and voluntary and any
      decision whether or not to participate shall not affect any Employee's
      employment with the Corporation. No Employee, Plan Member or other person
      shall have any claim or right to participate under the Plan. Participation
      in this Plan shall not affect the right of the Corporation to discharge a
      Plan Member. Neither any period of notice, if any, nor any payment in lieu
      thereof, or combination thereof, upon termination of employment shall be
      considered as extending the period of employment for the purposes of the
      Plan.

14.3  The implementation and operation of the Plan is subject to any
      governmental and stock exchange approvals or consents that may be or
      become applicable. As a condition of participating in the Plan, each Plan
      Member agrees to comply with all laws, rules and regulations which may
      apply in connection with the Plan and agrees to furnish to the Corporation
      all information and undertakings as may be required to permit compliance
      with such laws, rules and regulations.

14.4  The Corporation may adopt and apply rules that in its opinion will ensure
      that the Corporation will be able to comply with applicable provisions of
      any federal, provincial, state, or local tax legislation. The Corporation
      or a Subsidiary may withhold from any amounts payable to a Plan Member,
      either under this Plan, or otherwise, or require a Plan Member to pay,
      such amounts as may be necessary, so as to ensure that the Corporation or
      the Subsidiary will be able to comply with applicable law relating to the
      withholding of tax or other required deductions relating to the Plan
      Member's participation in the Plan. The Corporation shall also have the
      right in its discretion to satisfy any such withholding tax liability by
      retaining or acquiring any Employee Shares which would otherwise be
      provided to a Plan Member hereunder.
<PAGE>
                                       10

14.5  Notwithstanding subsection 14.4 above, a Plan Member shall be fully
      responsible and liable for reporting for tax purposes in respect of his
      participation in the Plan and the payment of any tax relating thereto.

14.6  Neither the Corporation nor the Administrator shall be liable to any Plan
      Member or any person claiming through a Plan Member for any loss or
      failure to achieve a gain resulting from:

      (a)   any change in the market value of any Employee Shares purchased by a
            Plan Member pursuant to the Plan;

      (b)   any change in the market price of the Common Shares between any time
            payroll deductions are made from a Plan Member's payroll and the
            time a purchase of Common Shares using the amounts so deducted takes
            place;

      (c)   any change in the market price of the Common Shares between the time
            the issuance of Common Shares under the Plan is suspended in
            accordance with paragraph 12.3(b) herein and the time the Common
            Shares of which issuance has been suspended are issued; or

      (d)   any change in the market price of the Common Shares between the
            Purchase Date on which a Plan Member purchases Employee Shares under
            the Plan and the date the Plan Member receives the share
            certificate(s) representing the Employee Shares he has purchased on
            that Purchase Date.

15.   EFFECTIVE DATE
