(iv) the Company and its subsidiaries have implemented backup and disaster recovery technology consistent with industry standards and practices.

(ss) To the Company’s knowledge, no material software developed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries in the conduct of their respective businesses contains any bug, defect or other error that materially adversely affects, or could reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect, the value, functionality, performance or security of such software, and no unauthorized access, use, intrusion, disclosure or other breach of security with respect to the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ data, or their respective customers’ or other third party material data, has occurred due to, or been enabled by, a security vulnerability of such software.

(b) Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, represents, warrants, and agrees with respect to offers and sales outside the United States that:

(i) such Initial Purchaser understands that no action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction by the Issuer that would permit a public offering of the Securities, or possession or distribution of the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or any other offering or publicity material relating to the Securities, in any country or jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required;

Terms used in this Section 7(b) have the meanings given to them by Regulation S.

8.Indemnity and Contribution. (a) Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each affiliate of each Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained or incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Offering Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Issuer, any General Solicitation made by the Issuer or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to any Initial Purchaser furnished to the Issuer in writing by such Initial Purchaser through the Representative expressly for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Additional Written Offering Communication, General Solicitation or the Final Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto). The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8(a) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Issuer and the Guarantors may otherwise have.

(b) Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, each Guarantor, each of their respective directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Issuer or any Guarantor within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuer and the Guarantors to

such Initial Purchaser, but only with reference to information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Issuer in writing by such Initial Purchaser through the Representative expressly for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Additional Written Offering Communication or the Final Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto). Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Initial Purchasers through the Representative has furnished to the Issuer expressly for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Communication set forth in Schedule II hereto, General Solicitation set forth in Schedule II hereto, or the Final Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto) are the statements set forth in the first sentence of the third paragraph, the fourth sentence of the seventh paragraph, the eighth paragraph and the ninth paragraph, all under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Preliminary Memorandum and the Final Memorandum. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8(b) shall be in addition to any liabilities that each Initial Purchaser may otherwise have.

(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8(a) or 8(b), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing; provided, however, that (1) the failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 8 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by such failure and (2) the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that the indemnifying party may have to an indemnified party other than under this Section 8. The indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonably incurred fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for (i) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Initial Purchasers and all persons, if any, who control the Initial Purchasers within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act or who are affiliates of the Initial Purchasers within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act and (ii) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Issuer, its directors, its officers and each person, if any, who controls the Issuer within the meaning of either such Section. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Representative, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(a), and by the Issuer, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant

to Section 8(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuer and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 8(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Issuer and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuer and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuer and the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Issuer and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the Initial Purchasers on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuer or the Guarantors, or by the Initial Purchasers, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of Securities they have purchased hereunder as set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto, and not joint.

(e) The Issuer and the Guarantors and Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to Section 8(d) were determined bypro rataallocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the total discounts, commissions and other compensation received by such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement, less the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 8 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Issuer contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, any person controlling any Initial Purchaser or any affiliate of any Initial Purchaser or by or on behalf of the Issuer, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Issuer and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities.

9.Termination. The Representative may terminate this Agreement by notice given by you to the Issuer, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, any of the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT, The NASDAQ Global Market, the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade, (ii) trading of any securities of the Company or the Issuer shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over the counter market, (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in the Representative’s judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in the Representative’s judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Memorandum or the Final Memorandum.

10.Effectiveness; Defaulting Initial Purchasers. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

If, on the Closing Date, any one or more of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one tenth of the

aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all suchnon-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the Representative with the consent of thenon-defaulting Initial Purchasers, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase on the Closing Date;providedthat in no event shall the principal amount of Securities that any Initial Purchaser has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 10 by an amount in excess of one ninth of such principal amount of Securities without the written consent of such Initial Purchaser. If, on the Closing Date any Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities which it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date and the aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than one tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on the Closing Date, and arrangements satisfactory to thenon-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Issuer for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of anynon-defaulting Initial Purchaser or of the Issuer or any Guarantor except that the provisions of Sections 6(g), 8 and 11hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such case either the Representative or the Issuer shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” shall be deemed to include any person substituted for a defaulting Initial Purchaser under this Section 10. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement.

11.Reimbursement of the Expenses of the Initial Purchasers. If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Representative pursuant to Section 9 or because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Issuer or any Guarantor to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Issuer or any Guarantor shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will reimburse each Initial Purchaser, severally, upon demand for all out of pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchasers in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.

12.Entire Agreement. (a) This Agreement, together with any contemporaneous written agreements and any prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) that relate to the offering of the Securities, represents the entire agreement between the Issuer and the Initial Purchasers with respect to the preparation of the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum, the conduct of the offering, and the purchase and sale of the Securities.

(b) This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(c) The Issuer acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Securities: (i) the Initial Purchasers have acted at arms length, are not agents of, and owe no fiduciary duties to, the Issuer, the Guarantors or any other person, (ii) the Initial Purchasers owe the Issuer only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) if any, (iii) the Initial Purchasers may have interests that differ from those of the Issuer and the Guarantors, and (iv) the Initial Purchasers have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby, and the Issuer and the Guarantors have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate. The Issuer and the Guarantors waive to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims they may have against the Initial Purchasers arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the offering of the Securities.

13.Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier, facsimile or other electronic transmission (i.e., a “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

14.Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, and to the benefit of the indemnified parties referred to in Section 8 hereof, and in each case their respective successors, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder. The term “successors” shall not include any Subsequent Purchaser or other purchaser of the Securities as such from any of the Initial Purchasers merely by reason of such purchase.

15.Partial Unenforceability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other section, paragraph or provision hereof. If any section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement is for any reason determined to be invalid or unenforceable, there shall be deemed to be made such minor changes (and only such minor changes) as are necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

16.Authority of the Representative. Any action by the Initial Purchasers hereunder may be taken by the Representative on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, and any such action taken by the Representative shall be binding upon the Initial Purchasers.

17.Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (“Related Proceedings”) may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York or the courts of the State of New York in each case located in the City and County of New York (collectively, the “Specified Courts”), and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction (except for suits, actions, or proceedings instituted in regard to the enforcement of a judgment of any Specified Court in a Related Proceeding (a “Related Judgment”), as to which such jurisdiction isnon-exclusive) of the Specified Courts in any Related Proceeding. Service of any process, summons, notice or document by mail to such party’s address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any Related Proceeding brought in any Specified Court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any Specified Proceeding in the Specified Courts and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any Specified Court that any Related Proceeding brought in any Specified Court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

18.Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement.

19.Notices.

LLC, 1585 Broadway, New York, New York 10036, Attention: High Yield Syndicate Desk, with a copy to the Legal Department; and if to the Issuer shall be delivered, mailed or sent to SS&C Technologies, Inc., 80 Lamberton Road, Windsor, Connecticut 06095, Attention: General Counsel and a copy to Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, 2475 Hanover Street, Palo Alto, CA 94304, Attention: William B.

(a) In the event that any Initial Purchaser that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Initial Purchaser of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b) In the event that any Initial Purchaser that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Initial Purchaser becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Initial Purchaser are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

Purchasers named in Schedule I

to the Purchase Agreement

referred to below

c/o Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC

1585 Broadway

New York, New York 10036

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to SS&C Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation(the “Issuer”), SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and the subsidiary guarantors listed in Schedule I (the “Schedule I Guarantors”) and Schedule II (the “Schedule II Guarantors”) to this opinion letter (collectively with Parent, the “Guarantors”) in connection with the purchase by you of $2,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.500% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”)issued by the Issuer, and unconditionally guaranteed by Parent, the Schedule I Guarantors and the Schedule II Guarantors, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, dated March 14, 2019 (the “Purchase Agreement”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, as representative of each of you, as initial purchasers (the “Initial Purchasers”).

We have examined the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ preliminary offering memorandum dated March 14, 2019 relating to the Notes and the Guarantees (as defined below) (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”), the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ offering memorandum dated March [14], 2019 relating to the Notes and the Guarantees (the “Offering Memorandum”), in each case, including the documents filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as


Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, et al.		-2-		March [●], 2019

amended, that are incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Offering Memorandum, as the case may be; the pricing supplement dated March 14, 2019 relating to the Notes and the Guarantees (the “Pricing Supplement” and, together with the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the “Pricing Disclosure Package”); the Indenture, dated as of March [•], 2019 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”); the global notes representing the Notes; the guarantees whose terms are set forth in the Indenture (the “Guarantees”); and the Purchase Agreement. We have relied as to matters of fact upon the representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement. In addition, we have examined, and have relied as to matters of fact upon, the documents delivered to you at the closing and upon originals, or duplicates or certified or conformed copies, of such records, agreements, documents and other instruments and such certificates or comparable documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Issuer and the Guarantors and have made such other investigations, as we have deemed relevant and necessary in connection with the opinions hereinafter set forth.

In rendering the opinions set forth below, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as duplicates or certified or conformed copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents.

In rendering the opinions set forth below, we have assumed that (1) each Schedule II Guarantor is validly existing and in good standing under the law of the jurisdiction in which it is organized and has duly authorized, executed, issued and delivered the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and its Guarantee, as applicable, in accordance with its organizational documents and the law of the jurisdiction in which it is organized, (2) the execution, issuance, delivery and


Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, et al.		-3-		March [●], 2019

performance by each Schedule II Guarantor of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and its Guarantee, as applicable, do not constitute a breach or violation of its organizational documents or violate the law of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or any other jurisdiction (except that no such assumption is made with respect to the federal law of the United States, the law of the State of New York, the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act) and (3) the execution, issuance, delivery and performance by Parent, the Issuer and each Guarantor of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture, the Notes and its Guarantee, as applicable, do not constitute a breach or default under any agreement or instrument which is binding upon Parent, the Issuer or such Guarantor (except that no such assumption is made with respect to the agreement listed on Schedule III hereto).

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications, assumptions and limitations stated herein, we are of the opinion that:

Each of Parent, the Issuer and the Schedule I Guarantors is validly existingand in good standing as a corporation or limited liability company under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act or under the law of the State of New York, as applicable. Parent has full corporatepower and authority to conduct its business as described in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Offering Memorandum.

The Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of Parent, the Issuer and the Schedule I Guarantors and, assuming that the Indenture is the valid and legally binding obligation of the Trustee, the Indenture constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Issuer and the Guarantors enforceable against the Issuer and the Guarantors in accordance with its terms.

The Notes have been duly authorized, executed and issued by the Issuer and, assuming due authentication thereof by the Trustee, upon payment and delivery in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the Notes will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Issuer enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with their termsand entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

4. The Guarantees have been duly authorized and issued by Parent and the Schedule I Guarantors and, assuming due authentication of the Notes by the Trusteeand upon payment for and delivery of the Notes in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the Guarantees will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Guarantors enforceable against the Guarantors in accordance with their termsand entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.


Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, et al.		-4-		March [●], 2019

5. The Purchase Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of Parent, the Issuer and the Schedule I Guarantors.

6. The statements made in each of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum under the caption “Description of Notes” (including, in the case of the Pricing Disclosure Package, the information contained in the Pricing Supplement), insofar as they purport to constitute summaries of certain terms of the Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees referred to therein, constitute accurate summaries of such terms in all material respects.

7. The statements made in each of the Pricing Disclosure Package andthe Offering Memorandum under the caption “Certain United States Federal Income and Estate Tax Consequences toNon-U.S. Holders”, insofar as they purport to constitute summaries of certain provisions of U.S. federal income and estate tax law and regulations or legal conclusions with respect thereto, constitute accurate summaries of such matters in all material respects.

8. The issue and sale of the Notes by the Issuer, the issue of the Guarantees by the Guarantors, the execution, delivery and performance by the Issuer and the Guarantors of the Purchase Agreement and the execution and delivery of the Indenture by the Issuer and the Guarantors(i) will not breach or result in a default under any loan agreement identified on Schedule III hereto and (ii) will not violate the certificate of incorporation, certificate of formation,by-laws or limited liability agreement, as applicable, of Parent, the Issuer or the Schedule I Guarantors or any federal or New York State statute or the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act or any rule or regulation that has been issued pursuant to any federal or New York State statute or the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, except that it is understood that no opinion is given in this paragraph 8 with respect to any federal or state securities law or any rule or regulation issued pursuant to any federal or state securities law.

9. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or registration or qualification with, any federal or New York State governmental agency or body or any Delaware State governmental agency or body acting pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act or, to our knowledge, any federal or New York State court or any Delaware State court acting pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act is required for the issue and sale of the Notes by the Issuer, the issue of the Guarantees by the Guarantors and the execution, delivery and performance by the Issuer and the Guarantors of the Purchase Agreement and the execution and delivery of the Indenture by the Issuer and the Guarantors, except that it is understood that no opinion is given in this paragraph 9 with respect to any federal or state securities law or any rule or regulation issued pursuant to any federal or state securities law.


Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, et al.		-5-		March [●], 2019

10. No registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of the Notes or the Guarantees and no qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, is required for the offer and sale of the Notes and the Guarantees by the Issuer and the Guarantors to the Initial Purchasers or the reoffer and resale of the Notes and the Guarantees by the Initial Purchasers to the initial purchasers therefrom solely in the manner contemplated by the Offering Memorandum, the Purchase Agreement and the Indenture.

11. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor is, and after giving effect to the issue and the sale of the Notes and the Guarantees and assuming the application of the proceeds therefrom as described in the Offering Memorandum none of them would as of the date hereof be, an “investment company” within the meaning of and subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Our opinions set forth in paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 above are subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally,(ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law)and (iii) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

We express no opinion as to the validity, legally binding effect or enforceability of (A) the waiver of rights and defenses contained in Section [•] of the Indentureor (B) Section [•] of the Indenture relating to the [severability][separability] of provisions of such agreement.

Our opinions set forth in paragraphs 8 and 9 above are limited to our review of only the statutes, rules and regulations that, in our experience, are customarily applicable to transactions of the type provided for in the Purchase Agreement and exclude statutes, rules and regulations that are part of a regulatory scheme applicable to any party or any of their affiliates due to the specific assets or business of such party or such affiliates. No opinion is expressed in paragraph 8 as to compliance with any financial or accounting test, or any limitation or restriction expressed as a dollar (or other currency) amount, or based, in whole or in part, on ratio or percentage in the agreement identified in Schedule III hereto.


Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, et al.		-6-		March [●], 2019

Insofar as our opinions relate to the valid existence and good standing of Parent, the Issuer and the Schedule I Guarantors, such opinions are based solely on confirmation from public officials and certificates of officers of Parent, the Issuer and the Schedule I Guarantors.

In connection with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement [and the Indenture] whereby the parties submit to the jurisdiction of the federal courts of the United States of America [located in the City and County of the state of New York or the courts of the City and County of the State of New York], we note the limitations of 28 U.S.C. Sections 1331 and 1332 on subject matter jurisdiction of the U.S. federal courts. In connection with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement [and the Indenture] which relate to forum selection (including, without limitation, any waiver of any objection to venue or any objection that a court is an inconvenient forum), we note that under N.Y.C.P.L.R. Section 510 a New York State court may have discretion to transfer the place of trial, and under 28 U.S.C. Section 1404(a) a U.S. District Court has discretion to transfer an action from one U.S. federal court to another.

New York, New York 10036

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted ascounsel to SS&C Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and the subsidiary guarantors listed in Schedule I to this letter (together with Parent, the “Guarantors”), in connection with the purchase by you of $2,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.500% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”)issued by the Issuer, and unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantors, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, dated March 14, 2019 (the “Purchase Agreement”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, as representative of each of you.

We have not independently verified the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements made or included in the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’preliminary offering memorandum dated March 14, 2019 relating to the Notes and the guarantees (the “Guarantees”) of the Guarantors (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”); the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’offering memorandum dated March [14], 2019 relating to the Notes and the Guarantees (the “Offering Memorandum”); the pricing supplement dated March 14, 2019 relating to the Notes and the Guarantees attached as Schedule II to this letter (such pricing supplement, together with the


Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, et al.		-2-		March [14], 2019

Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the “Pricing Disclosure Package”); or the documents filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are incorporated by reference in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum (the “Exchange Act Documents”), and we take no responsibility therefor, except as and to the extent set forth in numbered paragraphs 6 and 7 of our opinion letter to you dated the date hereof.

In connection with, and under the circumstances applicable to, the offering of the Notes and the Guarantees, we participated in conferences with certain officers and employees of the Issuer and the Guarantors, representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and your representatives in the course of the preparation by the Issuer and the Guarantors of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum (in each case, excluding the Exchange Act Documents) and also reviewed certain records and documents furnished to us, or publicly filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission,by the Issuer and the Guarantors, as well as the documents delivered to you at the closing. Based upon our review of the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Offering Memorandum and the Exchange Act Documents, our participation in the conferences referred to above, our review of the records and documents as described above, as well as our understanding of the U.S. federal securities laws and the experience we have gained in our practice thereunder, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that (a) the Pricing Disclosure Package (including the Exchange Act Documents), as of [ : ] p.m. (New York City time), on March 14, 2019, being the time you have advised us was the time of the first sale of the Notes and the Guarantees, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (b) the Offering Memorandum (including the Exchange Act Documents), as of its date or as of the date hereof, contained or


Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, et al.		-3-		March [14], 2019

contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that we express no belief in either of clauses (a) or (b) above with respect to the financial statements or other financial or accounting data contained in, incorporated or by reference in, or omitted from the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Offering Memorandum or the Exchange Act Documents.

This letter is delivered to you in connection with the above-described transaction. This letter may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or relied upon by, or furnished to, any other person, firm or corporation.

Distribution:		144A/Regulation S (no registration rights)

Each interest payment will be made to the holders of record on the immediately preceding March 15 and September 15.

Guarantees:		All payments on the notes, including principal and interest, will be fully and unconditionally, jointly and severally, guaranteed on a senior basis by Parent and all of its existing and future wholly owned domestic restricted subsidiaries (other than the Issuer) that guarantee our existing senior secured credit facilities or certain other indebtedness.


Equity Clawback:		Prior to March 30, 2022, the Issuer may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes with the net cash proceeds of certain public equity offerings, at a price equal to 105.500% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

Year:	Price:
2022		104.125	%

Under Rule15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), trades in the secondary market are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on the date of pricing of the notes or the next seven succeeding business days will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially settle in T+10, to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the notes who wish to trade the notes on the date of pricing of the notes or the next seven succeeding business days should consult their advisors.

Spread to Treasury:		+291 bps
