     AGREEMENT made this 21st day of January, 2011 between SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and William C. Stone (the “Participant”).

1. Certificates.

     The Company has issued to the Participant, pursuant to the Company’s 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), an aggregate of 153,846 shares (the “Shares”) of Class A Non-Voting Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (the “Non-Voting Common Stock”), in consideration for employment services rendered and to be rendered by the Participant to the Company. The Company may (i) issue one or more certificates in the name of the Participant for the Shares or (ii) issue the Shares in book entry form only in the name of the Participant. If the Company issues one or more certificates for the Shares, such certificate(s) shall initially be held on behalf of the Participant by the Secretary of the Company. Following the vesting of any Shares pursuant to Section 2 below, the Secretary shall, if requested by the Participant, deliver to the Participant a certificate representing the vested Shares. If the Shares are issued in book entry form only, the Company shall, if requested by the Participant, issue and deliver to the Participant a certificate representing the vested Shares following the vesting of any Shares pursuant to Section 2 below.

2. Vesting Schedule.

     Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Plan, the Shares shall vest in accordance with the following vesting schedule: the Shares shall vest over a period of three years from March 11, 2010, with one-third of the Shares vesting on March 11, 2011 and the remaining two-thirds of the Shares vesting in eight equal quarterly installments over the remaining two years.

3. Consequences of Termination.

     (a) Upon a termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company and SS&C Technologies, Inc. (i) by the Company without Cause, (ii) as a result of the Company’s Notice of Nonrenewal, (iii) by the Participant for Good Reason, (iv) as a result of the Participant’s Disability or (v) as a result of the Participant’s death, then, provided that (other than in the case of the Participant’s death) the Participant shall have executed and submitted a Release and the statutory period during which the Participant is entitled to revoke the Release has expired on or before the sixtieth day following the date of termination, then all vesting restrictions on the Shares shall lapse.

     (b) In the event that the Participant ceases to be employed by the Company for any reason other than the reasons specified in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 3(a) above, all of the Shares that are unvested as of the time of such employment termination shall be forfeited immediately and automatically to the Company, without the payment of any consideration to the Participant, effective as of such termination of employment. If certificates were issued for the Shares, the Participant hereby authorizes the Company to take any actions necessary or appropriate to cancel any certificate(s) representing forfeited Shares and transfer ownership of such forfeited Shares to the Company; and if the Company or its transfer agent requires an executed stock power or similar confirmatory instrument in connection with such cancellation and transfer, the Participant shall promptly execute and deliver the same to the Company. The Participant shall have no further rights with respect to any Shares that are so forfeited.

4. Shares Subject to Plan and Stockholders Agreement.
