         FUJITSU GRANTED EARLY TERMINATION OF ANTITRUST WAITING PERIOD

        SUNNYVALE, CALIFORNIA -- AUGUST 14, 1997 -- Fujitsu Limited (TSE: 6702)
announced today that, in connection with its previously announced tender offer
to acquire all the outstanding shares of Amdahl Corporation that it does not
currently own, the U.S. Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission
have granted Fujitsu early termination of the waiting period under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976.
        
        Early termination of the waiting period indicates that those government
agencies do not intend to oppose the tender offer and related merger on
antitrust grounds. Such early termination of the waiting period also satisfies
one of the conditions of the tender offer agreement between Fujitsu and Amdahl,
announced July 30. The tender offer, for $12 per share, is still subject to
certain other conditions and is scheduled to expire at 5 p.m. New York City
time, September 5, 1997, unless extended.
