28 August 2001

COLUMBIA, Md., Aug. 29 / MICROS Systems, Inc. [NASDAQ: MCRS] , a leading provider of information technology solutions for the hospitality industry, will install its OPERA Property Management System and Sales & Catering System in Carlton Hotel Collection's eight European hotels, with six properties in the Netherlands and two in the U.K. Additionally, the hotel company has selected the MICROS 3700 Point-0f-Sale System for its entire chain for superior management control. The sale was jointly made through the MICROS-Fidelio Headquarters for Europe, Africa & Middle East and Van Hessen b.v - Netherlands, the MICROS distribution partner for Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg.

The MICROS OPERA Enterprise Solution (OES) is a fully integrated suite of products consisting of modules that can be easily added or expanded allowing effective and easy deployment from smaller operations to global, multi-branded hotel chain environments. OES can be deployed in any size environment, from a single property, with just Front Office, to a large, full service hotel with Sales & Marketing, Catering, Central Reservations, Revenue Management, Quality Management, Back Office, and Materials Management modules.

The MICROS 3700 POS System is Windows®-based and offers enterprise-wide system integration capability and overall flexibility for store management. The system's graphical interface features a full-color touch screen and customizable options such as "screen designer," which can help reduce server- training time and improve productivity. Comprehensive reporting capabilities offer added controls and up-to-the-minute analysis for the hotel's management team.

Jeroen Buitelaar, MICROS Vice President - Sales & Major Accounts for Europe, Africa & Middle East, stated, "Carlton Hotel Collection is one of the first hotel chains in Europe to implement the integrated modules of OPERA Property Management and Sales & Catering. This integration will give Carlton Hotel Collection state-of-the-art management tools and a customer-centric information system. The OPERA Enterprise Solution takes guest service, guest recognition and guest satisfaction to the highest level."

Martin van Straten, Fidelio Business Unit Manager for Van Hessen b.v., added, "We are pleased that the Carlton Hotel Collection has selected Van Hessen b.v. as its strategic IT partner. We are providing local training and support so they are assured of personal, high-quality service at all times."

On behalf of Carlton Hotel Collection, Managing Director Alfred Bree stated, "The installation of these new systems is an exciting time for our company. We wanted the best technology available, but it was also important to us that the systems were designed with the guest in mind. Additionally, we feel that our staff will be quite comfortable with the OPERA Enterprise Solution and will derive great benefit from this integrated solution."
