Tyler Technologies Strengthens Presence in California with Two New Financial Solutions Contracts

DALLAS--(Business Wire)--
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) announced that it has signed
agreements to provide Tyler's EDEN financial management solution to
two cities in California--El Monte and Union City. Combined, the
contracts are valued at nearly $1.1 million. Both contracts include
software licenses, as well as professional services, maintenance and
support.

   El Monte and Union City each have elected to purchase a
comprehensive array of applications from Tyler's EDEN financial and
human resource product suites. El Monte will enhance its use of EDEN
Utility Billing through Web extensions, while Union City will employ
Web extensions to the EDEN Accounts Payable, EDEN Accounts Receivable,
EDEN Applicant Tracking and EDEN Human Resource applications. Both
cities will implement Tyler Output Processor and Tyler GASB 34
Reporter.

   Jeff Green, president of Tyler's EDEN Financial Management
Solutions points to these most recent contracts as examples of the
EDEN solution's strong standing in California. "Tyler's EDEN financial
management solution is recognized as an exceptional Enterprise
Resource Planning solution throughout the state of California, where
our presence continues to grow. Tyler's sole focus on serving the
public sector makes us experts in this market and gives clients
confidence that we can deliver a feature-rich solution to meet their
unique needs," he stated.

   Marcie Medina, deputy city manager for El Monte, commented on the
agreement. "The City of El Monte conducted an extensive RFP process
for a new financial information system. This process included on-site
demos with various vendors. We are very pleased to say that Tyler's
EDEN solution stood out from the rest. Tyler's extensive experience in
the government sector as well as its familiarity with the State of
California reporting requirements were top-selling qualities."

   Medina believes the City will benefit significantly from
implementing Tyler's EDEN system. "The EDEN solution is able to
provide excellent system functions and support services. The City of
El Monte is moving from our outdated financial system to a new system,
taking advantage of everything Tyler has to offer in the process. The
EDEN system will streamline our financial functions, enabling the City
to work more efficiently. We are also very pleased with Tyler's
responsive customer support and team approach. We look forward to the
benefits of implementing the EDEN financial management solution that
Tyler will provide to El Monte."

   The City of El Monte is located approximately 12 miles from
downtown Los Angeles in the heart of the San Gabriel Valley. It is one
of the largest cities in Los Angeles County, with a population of
120,000.

   Union City looks forward to implementing Tyler's EDEN financial
management solution, according to Rich Digre, director of
administrative services. "Union City is excited about the feature-rich
capabilities of the EDEN System and is looking forward to seeing
improved efficiencies and access to data as a result of implementing
the system. We have a small staff that needs to access information
quickly and accurately. Our current DOS-based system has not kept up
with changing dynamics in governmental accounting. With the EDEN
solution, we will be able to use the capabilities of graphical user
interface and SQL database queries along with the integration of our
Accounting, Business Tax, Budgeting, Building Permit, Payroll,
Geographic Information and Human Resource system needs under a single
system."

   Digre commented that Tyler's EDEN solution will enable staff to
access information independently. "Our interest is in providing
accounting and financial information to departments in a decentralized
environment where each department has the tools and capabilities to
extract pertinent data or to drill down and find answers to their own
questions without the need for Finance staff assistance," he
explained.

   Situated in the San Francisco Bay area of Northern California,
Union City is home to 73,400 residents. The city covers 18 square
miles and is located 30 miles southeast of San Francisco.
