          (a)  The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A as filed with the 
Commission on April 3, 1997 (file no. 0-28600) under the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), containing audited financial 
statements for the Company's latest fiscal year.

          (b)  The Plan's Annual Report on Form 11-K as filed with the
Commission (file no. 0-28600) on July 25, 1997 under the Exchange Act,
containing audited financial statements for the Plan's latest fiscal year.

          (c)  All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act since the end of the fiscal year covered by the Annual Report on
Form 10-K referenced above.

          (d)  The description of the Company's common stock, par value $0.10 
per share (the "Common Stock"), which is contained in the registration 
statement on Form 8-A filed with the Commission (file no. 0-28600) on July 1, 
1996 under the Exchange Act, including any subsequent amendment or any report 
filed for the purpose of updating such description.

          All documents filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c),

ITEM 4.   DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

          Not applicable.

ITEM 5.   INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

          Not applicable.

ITEM 6.   INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

          The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. 
Section 145 of the Delaware Law ("Section 145") provides that a Delaware
corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made,
parties to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action
by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person
was an officer, director, employee or agent of another corporation or
enterprise.  The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by such person in connection with such action or proceeding, if he
acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
appeared to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any
criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe that this his conduct was
illegal.  A Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are
threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that such
person was a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or
enterprise.  The indemnity may include defense or settlement of such action or
suit, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests except that
no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or
director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation.  Where an officer or
director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action
referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him against the expenses which
such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred.

          The Company's Bylaws provide for the indemnification of directors and
officers of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145.

          As permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware Law, the Certificate
of Incorporation provides that directors of the Company shall have no personal
liability to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except (i) for any breach of a director's duty of
loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or 


                                      II-2
<PAGE>

omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or 
knowing violations of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware Law, or 
(iv) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal 
benefit.

          The Company maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance
which insures the directors and officers of the Company against certain
liabilities.

ITEM 9.   UNDERTAKINGS

          (a)  The undersigned Company hereby undertakes:

          (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

            (i)     To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
     the Securities Act;

           (ii)     To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
     after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
     post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
     represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
     Registration Statement; and

          (iii)     To include any material information with respect to the plan
     of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or
     any material change to such information in this Registration Statement.

          PROVIDED, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not
apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-8 and the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement.

          (2)  That, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

          (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

          (b)  The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act
(and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference
in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered 


                                      II-4
<PAGE>

therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to 
be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

          (c)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company
has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid
by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer
or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled
by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.

ITEM 3.   INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE

          The following documents heretofore filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") by CCC Information Services Group Inc.
(the "Company") are incorporated herein by reference:

          (a)  The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A as filed with the 
Commission on April 3, 1997 (file no. 0-28600) under the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), containing audited financial 
statements for the Company's latest fiscal year.

          (b)  The Plan's Annual Report on Form 11-K as filed with the
Commission (file no. 0-28600) on July 25, 1997 under the Exchange Act,
containing audited financial statements for the Plan's latest fiscal year.

          (c)  All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act since the end of the fiscal year covered by the Annual Report on
Form 10-K referenced above.

          (d)  The description of the Company's common stock, par value $0.10 
per share (the "Common Stock"), which is contained in the registration 
statement on Form 8-A filed with the Commission (file no. 0-28600) on July 1, 
1996 under the Exchange Act, including any subsequent amendment or any report 
filed for the purpose of updating such description.

          All documents filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c),
14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date of this Registration Statement
and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all
securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all securities
then remaining unsold are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this
Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the respective dates of
filing of such documents (such documents, and the documents enumerated above,
being hereinafter referred to as "Incorporated Documents").

          Any statement contained in an Incorporated Document shall be deemed to
be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the
extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed
Incorporated Document modifies or supersedes such statement.  Any such statement
so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or
superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

ITEM 4.   DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

          Not applicable.

ITEM 5.   INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

          Not applicable.

ITEM 6.   INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

          The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. 
Section 145 of the Delaware Law ("Section 145") provides that a Delaware
corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made,
parties to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action
by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person
was an officer, director, employee or agent of another corporation or
enterprise.  The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by such person in connection with such action or proceeding, if he
acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
appeared to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any
criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe that this his conduct was
illegal.  A Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are
threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that such
person was a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or
enterprise.  The indemnity may include defense or settlement of such action or
suit, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests except that
no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or
director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation.  Where an officer or
director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action
referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him against the expenses which
such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred.

          The Company's Bylaws provide for the indemnification of directors and
officers of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145.

          As permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware Law, the Certificate
of Incorporation provides that directors of the Company shall have no personal
liability to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except (i) for any breach of a director's duty of
loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or 

                                      II-2
omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or 
knowing violations of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware Law, or 
(iv) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal 
benefit.

          The Company maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance
which insures the directors and officers of the Company against certain
liabilities.

ITEM 9.   UNDERTAKINGS

          (a)  The undersigned Company hereby undertakes:

          (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

            (i)     To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
     the Securities Act;

           (ii)     To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
     after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
     post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
     represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
     Registration Statement; and

          (iii)     To include any material information with respect to the plan
     of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or
     any material change to such information in this Registration Statement.

          PROVIDED, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not
apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-8 and the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement.

          (2)  That, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

          (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

          (b)  The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act
(and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference
in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered 

                                      II-4
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to 
be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

          (c)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company
has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid
by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer
or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled
by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.

                                      II-5
