ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS On December 1, 2003, DST Systems, Inc. ("DST") and Janus Capital Group Inc. ("Janus") completed their previously announced share exchange. Under the terms of the transaction, Janus exchanged 32.3 million shares of DST common stock (27.9 % of the outstanding shares) for 100% of the stock of a DST subsidiary, DST Output Marketing Services, Inc. ("OMS"), which was previously part of DST's Output Solutions segment.

The transaction was structured as a tax-free exchange under Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code.

The per share value determined pursuant to that agreement was $34.50.

DST NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. On August 25, 2003, DST, OMS (a wholly-owned subsidiary of DST) and Janus entered into a Share Exchange Agreement that provides for the exchange of all of the outstanding shares of OMS owned by DST for 32.3 million shares of DST Common Stock owned by Janus. The Exchange has been designed to comply with Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code, accordingly, DST should not incur income tax relating to the split-off of OMS. Under the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Janus DST Shares will be valued at a price ranging from $30.00 to $34.50 per share, based on the average closing price for the 20 trading days preceding the Closing of the Exchange. DST will equalize the difference between the negotiated value of OMS of $115.0 million and the gross transaction value, which can range from $969.0 million to $1,114.4 million, with cash ranging from $854.0 million to $999.4 million (Additional Assets). On November 28, 2003, DST held a special shareholder meeting. At that meeting, DST shareholders approved the previously announced Share Exchange Agreement, dated August 25, 2003 by and among DST, DST Output Marketing Services, Inc. and Janus Capital Group Inc. The Exchange closed on December 1, 2003. Based on the average closing price of DST Common Stock and terms within the Share Exchange Agreement, $34.50 was used as the DST Common Stock share price. DST contributed cash of $999.4 million to equalize the difference between the negotiated value of OMS of $115.0 million and the final transaction value determined for the Exchange. For accounting purposes, the treasury stock is recorded at the implied transaction value ($1,126.0 million), which represents the value of OMS on the Exchange date and the contributed cash. Immediately after the Exchanged closed, the shares received were retired. 2. Reflects the historical operations of OMS for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and for the year ended December 31, 2002 and the financial position of OMS at September 30, 2003, respectively. 3. Reflects the annual interest expense of $41.5 million resulting from funding the contribution of the Additional Assets ($999.4 million) to OMS based on $34.50 per share of DST Common Stock at Closing. The interest expense for the nine month period ended September 30, 2003 is $31.2 million based on the following calculation. DST funded the Additional Assets as follows (dollars in millions): PRINCIPAL INTEREST DEBT ISSUED AMOUNT INTEREST RATE EXPENSE ----------------------------------------------------- ---------------- ---------------- ------------- Convertible notes $ 840.0 3.95% $ 33.2 Secured revolving credit facility draws specifically used for the Exchange 180.4 2.75% 4.9 ---------------- ------------- Total 1,020.4 38.1 Less debt issuance costs (21.0) 5 - 7 years 3.4 ---------------- ------------- Net $ 999.4 $ 41.5 ================ ============= On August 12, 2003, DST completed its offering of $840.0 million in Convertible Senior Debentures due 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the DST historical numbers include $5.2 million in interest expense related to the convertible notes and debt issuance costs. If the convertible notes were issued as of January 1, 2002, the interest expense related to the convertible notes would have been $27.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The debt issuance costs represents 2.5% of the offering paid to the underwriters. The DST secured revolving credit facility is subject to a variable interest rate. The effect of a 1/8% variance in the interest rate on net income is $0.2 million based on a transaction value of $34.50 per share. An additional $500.4 million was borrowed to help fund the $999.4 million in Additional Assets related to the Exchange. Of the additional borrowings, $320.0 million was used to finance existing debt and $180.4 million was used to fund the Exchange. The $320.0 million was needed due to DST using a portion of the convertible notes proceeds to payoff existing debt at the time of the Convertible Notes offering. 4. Reflects the income tax effects of the pro forma adjustments for the Additional Assets at DST's statutory income tax rate of 39%. 5. Reflects the reduction in average and diluted shares outstanding of 32.3 million shares in accordance with the Share Exchange Agreement. 6. The accompanying pro forma income statements do not reflect an estimated $114.3 million gain expected to be realized from the Share Exchange Agreement. The gain has not been reflected in the pro forma income statements given the non-recurring nature of the gain. For accounting purposes, approximately 29.0 million shares were allocated to the cash portion of the Exchange and approximately 3.3 million shares were allocated to the value of OMS. The shares allocated to OMS are valued at $37.97, which was the closing price of DST Common Stock as of December 1, 2003. The accompanying pro forma balance sheet reflects the net gain in retained earnings as of September 30, 2003 and reflects the following (in millions): Description Amount --------------------------------------------------- ------------------- Value of OMS $ 126.6 Investment in OMS as of September 30, 2003 (11.9) Stock option compensation expense ($0.6), net of tax 39% ($0.2) (0.4) ------------------- Net gain on transaction $ 114.3 =================== The $0.2 million deferred tax asset is shown as an adjustment to other assets in the accompanying pro forma balance sheet. 7. The debentures are convertible under certain circumstances into shares of DST Common Stock per $1,000 original principal amount of debentures at an initial conversion rate of 20.3732 shares, each subject to adjustment in certain events. This is equivalent to an initial conversion price of $49.08 per share for the debentures. Upon conversion, DST has the right to deliver, in lieu of DST Common Stock, cash or any combination of cash and DST Common Stock. If the conversion criteria were met, the debentures would be convertible to 17,113,488 shares of DST Common Stock. Since the conversion criteria is not met, the shares are not reflected in the earnings per share. Management currently intends to pay cash in the event the debt is put.
