                            SHAREHOLDER'S AGREEMENT

     This Shareholder's Agreement (this "Agreement") is made and entered into as
of August 20, 2001, by and among Keane, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation
("Keane"), Veritas Acquisition Corp., a Virginia corporation and a wholly owned
subsidiary of Keane (the "Transitory Subsidiary"), and the undersigned holder
(the "Shareholder") of the shares of voting Common Stock, $0.01 par value per
share, of Metro Information Services, Inc., a Virginia corporation ("Metro"),
set forth on the signature page hereto (such number of shares, together with any
additional shares that become subject to this Agreement in accordance with
Section 1.4(b) hereof, the "Shares").

                                    RECITALS

  A.  Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Keane, Metro and the
Transitory Subsidiary have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
"Merger Agreement") that provides for the merger (the "Merger") of the
Transitory Subsidiary with and into Metro.  Pursuant to the Merger, shares of
capital stock of Metro will be converted into the right to receive shares of
common stock, $0.10 par value per share, of Keane ("Keane Common Stock") and
cash in lieu of fractional shares as described in the Merger Agreement.

  B.  The Shareholder is the record holder and beneficial owner of the Shares,
representing at least 40% of the outstanding shares of Metro Common Stock.  For
purposes of this Agreement, "beneficial ownership" shall have the meaning given
to such term in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act").

  C.  Keane desires the Shareholder to agree, and the Shareholder is willing to
agree, (i) not to transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares prior to
the Expiration Date (as defined in Section 1.1 below) and (ii) to vote the
Shares so as to facilitate consummation of the Merger.

     NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as
follows:

1.  Agreement to Retain and Vote Shares.
    -----------------------------------

  1.1  Transfer and Encumbrance.  The Shareholder agrees not to transfer (except
as may be specifically required by court order), sell, exchange, pledge or
otherwise dispose of or encumber any of the Shares or to make any offer or
agreement relating thereto, at any time prior to the Expiration Date.  As used
herein, the term "Expiration Date" shall mean the earlier to occur of:  (a) such
date and time as the Merger shall become effective in accordance with the terms
and provisions of the Merger Agreement (provided that nothing contained herein
shall release the Shareholder from any of his obligations set forth under the
Affiliate Agreement (as defined in the Merger Agreement)) and (b) such date as
the Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1 thereof.

  1.2  Agreement to Vote Shares. From the date hereof until the Expiration Date,
at every meeting of the shareholders of Metro called with respect to the Merger
Agreement and the Plan of Merger (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and/or the
Merger, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or
approval by unanimous written consent of the shareholders of Metro with respect
to the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger and/or the Merger, the Shareholder
shall vote the Shares in favor of adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement,

                                       1
<PAGE>

the Plan of Merger and any matter that could reasonably be expected to
facilitate the Merger. The Shareholder agrees not to take any actions contrary
to his obligations under this Agreement.

  1.3  Irrevocable Proxy. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the
Shareholder agrees to deliver to Keane a proxy in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A (the "Proxy"), which shall be coupled with an interest and
irrevocable, with the number of shares of capital stock of Metro beneficially
owned by the Shareholder and subject to the Proxy set forth therein.

  1.4  Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Shareholder.  The
Shareholder hereby represents, warrants and covenants to Keane as follows:

       (a)  Ownership of Shares; Authority. The Shareholder (i) is the record
   and beneficial owner of the Shares, which at the date hereof and at all times
   up until the Expiration Date will be free and clear of any liens, claims,
   options, charges or other encumbrances; and (ii) has full power and authority
   to make, enter into and carry out the terms of this Agreement and the Proxy.
   In addition, in the case of a Shareholder that is a trust, the trustees of
   such Shareholder have full power and authority to make, enter into and carry
   out the terms of this Agreement and the Proxy.

       (b)  Ownership Percentage. The Shareholder represents and warrants that
   the Shares represent 40% of the outstanding shares of Metro Common Stock as
   of the date of this Agreement. The Shareholder further acknowledges and
   agrees that if at any time and from time to time from the date of this
   Agreement until the Expiration Date, the Shares represent less than 40% of
   the outstanding shares of Metro Common Stock, this Agreement shall be deemed
   to be amended as of such time such that the number of Shares subject to this
   Agreement shall be increased to the number of shares of Metro Common Stock
   constituting 40% of the outstanding shares of Metro Common Stock.

        (c)  No Conflicts or Consents. The execution and delivery of this
   Agreement and the Proxy by the Shareholder do not, and the performance by the
   Shareholder of his obligations under this Agreement and the Proxy will not:
   (i) conflict with or violate any law, rule, regulation, order, decree or
   judgment applicable to the Shareholder or by which its properties are bound
   or affected; (ii) in the case of a Shareholder that is a trust, conflict with
   or violate any trust document applicable to the Shareholder or by which its
   properties are bound or affected; or (iii) result in or constitute any breach
   or default under, or give any person or entity rights of termination,
   amendment or acceleration in, the creation of an encumbrance or restriction
   applicable to any of the Shares.

        (d)  Governmental Filings. The Shareholder agrees to cooperate and to
   use his commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any governmental clearances
   or approvals for the consummation of the Merger under the Hart-Scott-Rodino
   Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and any other federal, state
   or foreign law or regulation or decree designed to prohibit, restrict or
   regulate actions for the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of
   trade and to respond to any government requests for information relating to
   such antitrust laws.

                                       2
<PAGE>

        (e) Transfer of Voting Rights. The Shareholder agrees that, until the
   Expiration Date, the Shareholder shall ensure that: (i) none of the Shares
   are deposited into a voting trust and (ii) no proxy is granted, and no voting
   agreement or similar agreement is entered into, with respect to the Shares.

        (f) No Proxy Solicitations. From the date of this Agreement until the
   Expiration Date, the Shareholder, in his capacity as a shareholder of Metro,
   will not, and will not permit any individual or entity under the
   Shareholder's control to: (i) solicit proxies with respect to (A) an approval
   of any proposal made in opposition to or competition with consummation of the
   Merger, (B) the adoption of any merger agreement or approval of any merger,
   consolidation, sale of assets, reorganization or recapitalization with any
   party other than with Keane and Keane's affiliates (as defined in Rule 405 of
   the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) ("Affiliates") or (C) any liquidation
   or winding up of Metro (each of the foregoing is hereinafter referred to as
   an "Opposing Proposal"); (ii) encourage or assist any party in taking or
   planning any action that would compete with, restrain or otherwise serve to
   interfere with or inhibit the timely consummation of the Merger in accordance
   with the terms of the Merger Agreement; (iii) initiate a shareholders' vote
   or action by consent of Metro shareholders with respect to an Opposing
   Proposal; or (iv) become a member of a "group" (as such term is used in
   Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) with respect to any voting securities of
   Metro with respect to an Opposing Proposal.

        (g) Additional Documents. The Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees to
   execute and deliver any additional documents necessary or desirable, in the
   reasonable opinion of Keane, to carry out the intent of this Section 1.

  1.5  Consent and Waiver.  The Shareholder hereby gives any consents or waivers
that are reasonably required for the consummation of the Merger under the terms
of any agreements to which the Shareholder is a party as a shareholder or
pursuant to any rights the Shareholder may have as a shareholder.

  1.6  Fiduciary Duty as Director of Metro.  The parties hereto acknowledge and
agree that the Shareholder's obligations under this Section 1 are solely in his
capacity as a shareholder of Metro, and that none of the provisions in this
Section 1 shall be deemed to restrict or limit any fiduciary duty that the
Shareholder or any of his Affiliates may have as a member of the Board of
Directors of Metro; provided that no such duty shall excuse the Shareholder from
his obligations as a shareholder of Metro to vote the Shares as herein provided
and to otherwise comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

  1.7  Lock-Up Agreement.  The Shareholder shall not, during any 90 day period
commencing on the Closing Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement), transfer,
or permit any of his Affiliates to transfer, shares of Keane Common Stock or
other Keane securities held by the Shareholder  and such Affiliates
representing, in the aggregate, more than 1% of the then outstanding shares of
Keane Common Stock.  Keane may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to
shares of Keane Common Stock or other securities subject to the foregoing
restriction.

  1.8  Finder's Fees.  No investment banker, broker or finder is entitled to a
commission or fee from Keane, Transitory Subsidiary or Metro in respect of this
Agreement based upon any arrangement or agreement made by or on behalf of the
Shareholder.

  2.  Representations and Warranties of Keane.  Keane represents and warrants to
the Shareholder that Keane has all requisite corporate power and authority to
enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder.  The
execution, delivery and performance by Keane of this Agreement and the
consummation by Keane of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly
authorized by the Board of Directors of Keane, and no other corporate action on
the part of Keane is necessary to authorize the execution, delivery or
performance by Keane of this Agreement and the consummation by Keane of the
transactions contemplated hereby.  This Agreement has been duly executed and
delivered by Keane and is a valid and binding agreement of Keane, enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws relating to creditors'
rights generally.

3.  Nomination of the Shareholder to the Keane Board of Directors.
    -------------------------------------------------------------

  3.1 Nomination Right. Prior to or at the Effective Time, the Shareholder shall
have the right to be nominated to the Keane Board of Directors (the "Keane
Board") effective as of the Effective Time and at each meeting of stockholders
of Keane, as the case may be, at which directors are to be elected. The Keane
Board shall, subject to its fiduciary duties under applicable law, cause the
Shareholder to be nominated and recommended for election to the Keane Board at
the Effective Time and at all meetings of stockholders of Keane at which
directors are to be elected following the Effective Time.

  3.2 Number of Directors. Subject to its fiduciary duties under applicable law,
the Keane Board shall not, in connection with its nomination of individuals to
be submitted to Keane's stockholders for election to the Keane Board, cause the
total number of director seats on the Keane Board to be considered and filled by
Keane stockholders to be decreased to a number less than that equal to the
number of director nominees nominated and recommended for election by the Keane
Board. For the avoidance of doubt, the Keane Board need not take into account
any director nominees proposed by Keane's stockholders when determining the
number of director seats on the Keane Board.

  3.3 Termination. The rights granted to the Shareholder and the obligations of
Keane pursuant to this Section 3 shall terminate on the date on which the
Shareholder, together with his Affiliates, ceases, following the Effective Time,
to beneficially own 4% or more of the outstanding shares of Keane Common Stock.

4.  Miscellaneous.
    -------------

  4.1  Severability.  If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this
Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or
unenforceable, then the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and
restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall
in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

  4.2  Binding Effect and Assignment.  This Agreement and all of the provisions
hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective successors and permitted assigns, but, except as otherwise
specifically provided herein, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights,
interests or obligations of the Shareholder may be assigned by the Shareholder
without prior written consent of Keane.

Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such cost or expense.

  4.4  Specific Performance; Injunctive Relief.  The parties hereto acknowledge

at law for a violation of any of the covenants or agreement of the Shareholder
set forth herein.  Therefore, it is agreed that, in addition to any other
remedies that may be available to Keane upon any such violation, Keane shall
have the right to enforce such covenants and agreements by specific performance,
