The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15b-15) for the Company and designed such disclosures controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the Company's Form 10-K or 10-Q, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Company's certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 (such date, the "EVALUATION DATE"). The Company presented in the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) or, the Company's knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the Company's internal controls. (s) SOLVENCY/INDEBTEDNESS. Based on the financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date: (i) the fair saleable value of the Company's assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company's existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature; (ii) the Company's assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business for the current fiscal year as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof; and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to -12- liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization or liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the Closing Date. The SEC Reports set forth as of the dates thereof all outstanding secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, or for which the Company or any Subsidiary has commitments. For the purposes of this Agreement, "INDEBTEDNESS" shall mean (a) any liabilities for borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of $50,000 (other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), (b) all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the Company's balance sheet or the notes thereto, except guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection in the ordinary course of business, and (c) the present value of any lease payments in excess of $50,000 due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with GAAP. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness. (t) CERTAIN FEES. No brokerage or finder's fees or commissions are or will be payable by the Company to any broker, financial advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the Company has not taken any action that would cause any Purchaser to be liable for any such fees or commissions.

From the date hereof until 180 days after the Effective Date, each Purchaser may, in its sole determination and severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, on one occasion, elect to purchase, in the ratio of such Purchaser's Subscription Amount on the Closing Date to the aggregate Subscription Amounts of all Purchasers on the Closing Date, additional Debentures and Warrants for an aggregate purchase price among all Purchasers of up to $2,000,000. -24- Any additional investment will be on terms and prices identical those set forth in the Transaction Documents, MUTATIS MUTANDIS, except that (i) the conversion price for any debentures issued under this additional investment shall be equal to 115% of the average of the 10 consecutive VWAPs immediately prior to the date the option is exercised, the exercise price of the warrants shall be equal to the average of the 10 consecutive VWAPs on the date the option is exercised and warrant coverage shall be determined based on the exercise price of the new warrants, and (ii) "Filing Date" in the registration statement shall be the earlier of (A) 45 days after all Purchasers have exercised their right to purchase additional debentures and warrants hereunder and (B) the later of the Company's fiscal quarter end and the 45th day following the date such a subsequent financing occurs with a Purchaser and the "Effectiveness Date" in the registration statement shall be 90 days after the Filing Date. In order to effectuate a purchase and sale of the additional shares of Common Stock and Warrants, the Company and the Purchasers shall enter into the following agreements: (x) a securities purchase agreement identical to this Agreement, MUTATIS MUTANDIS and shall include updated disclosure schedules and (y) a registration rights agreement identical to the Registration Rights Agreement, MUTATIS MUTANDIS and shall include updated disclosure schedules. Any such additional Investment shall close within 10 Trading Days of notice to the Company by a Purchaser that such Purchaser elects to exercise its rights hereunder. The parties hereby agree and acknowledge that the rights granted hereunder to a Purchaser are independent and separate of the rights granted to any other Purchaser and a Purchasers election to exercise its right to an additional investment hereunder does not obligate any other Purchaser to also elect at such time nor does it waive any Purchaser's right to elect to exercise at a later date. (b) COMPANY RIGHT. From the Effective Date until 180 days after the Effective Date ("COMPANY EXERCISE PERIOD"), if each VWAP during any 20 consecutive Trading Days during the Company Exercise Period exceeds $2.00, subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement, the Company may, on one occasion, in its sole determination and by notice within 2 Trading Days' of the end of any Company Exercise Period, require the Purchasers to purchase, in the ratio of such Purchaser's Subscription Amount on the Closing Date to the aggregate Subscription Amounts of all Purchasers on the Closing Date, additional Debentures and Warrants for an aggregate purchase price among all Purchasers of up to $2,000,000. Any additional investment will be on terms and prices identical those set forth in the Transaction Documents, MUTATIS MUTANDIS, except that the conversion price of the debentures shall be the then Set Price of the Debentures and the exercise price of the warrants shall be the then Exercise Price of the Warrants. In order to effectuate a purchase and sale of the additional shares of Common Stock and Warrants, the Company and the Purchasers shall enter into the following agreements: (x) a securities purchase agreement identical to this Agreement, MUTATIS MUTANDIS and shall include updated disclosure schedules and (y) a registration rights agreement identical to the Registration Rights Agreement, MUTATIS MUTANDIS and shall include updated disclosure schedules. Any such additional Investment shall close within 10 Trading Days of notice to the Purchasers by a Company that the Company elects to exercise its rights hereunder. The Company's right hereunder shall be applied ratably to all Purchasers as set forth above. The Purchasers shall not -25- be obligated to purchase such securities, notwithstanding this right, if a Material Adverse Effect has occurred during the period from the Closing Date to the date of such exercise or if a Purchaser reasonably believes that, based on the information contained in the disclosure schedules, a Material Adverse Effect will occur or if from the commencement of the Company Exercise Period until the additional investment is closed the Equity Conditions (as defined in the Debentures) are satisfied. (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event a Purchaser exercises its right to purchase additional debentures and warrants pursuant to Section 4.16(a), the Company's right to cause such Purchaser shall be reduced by such amount. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the Company exercises its right to purchase additional debentures and warrants pursuant to Section 4.16(b), the each Purchaser's right to cause the Company to issue additional debentures and warrants shall be reduced proportionally. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any per share dollar amounts expressed in the Transaction Documents shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement in the new transaction documents entered into pursuant to Sections 4.16(a) and (b). 4.17 EQUAL TREATMENT OF PURCHASERS. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents. Further, the Company shall not make any payment of principal or interest on the Debentures in amounts which are disproportionate to the respective principal amounts outstanding on the Debentures at any applicable time. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended to treat for the Company the Debenture holders as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise. 4.18 DELIVERY OF SECURITIES UPON CLOSING. The Company shall deliver the Debentures and Warrants to the Purchasers within 3 Trading Days of the Closing Date. ARTICLE V MISCELLANEOUS 5.1 TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated by any Purchaser, by written notice to the other parties, if the Closing has not been consummated on or before March 26, 2004; provided that no such termination will affect the right of any party to sue for any breach by the other party (or parties). 5.2 FEES AND EXPENSES. The Company has agreed to reimburse $35,000 to Omicron Master Trust ("OMICRON") (of which $10,000 has been received) as reimbursement for its legal, administrative and due diligence fees and expenses incurred to prepare and negotiate the Transaction Documents. Accordingly, in -26- lieu of the foregoing payments, the Company, on the Closing Date, will direct that the aggregate amount that Omicron is to pay for the Debentures and Warrants at the Closing, be reduced by $25,000. Except as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. The Company shall pay all transfer agent fees, stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with the issuance of any Securities. 5.3 ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

No provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and a majority in interest of the Purchasers (based on the then outstanding principal amount of Debentures held by each Purchaser, and if no Debentures are then outstanding, the number of unexercised Warrant Shares held by each Purchaser) or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right. 5.6 CONSTRUCTION. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. 5.7 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder -27- without the prior written consent of the Purchasers. Any Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement to any Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers any Securities. 5.8 NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise set forth in Sections 4.12. 5.9 GOVERNING LAW; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of San Diego, California for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. The parties hereby waive all rights to a trial by jury. If either party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Agreement, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its attorneys fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding. 5.10 SURVIVAL. The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the earlier of (a) 18 months after the Closing Date and (b) the date on which the Debentures and Warrants are no longer outstanding. The agreements and covenants of the Company contained herein shall survive, as to a Purchaser and unless otherwise set forth in the Transaction Documents, until such Purchaser no longer holds any Securities. 5.11 EXECUTION. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof. -28- 5.12 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement. 5.13 RESCISSION AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHT. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights, provided, however, in the case of a rescission of a conversion of a Debenture or exercise of a Warrant, the Purchaser shall be required to return any shares of Common Stock subject to any such conversion or exercise notice. 5.14 REPLACEMENT OF SECURITIES. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities. 5.15 REMEDIES. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company expressly agrees that its breach of the next-to-last last sentence of Section 4.7 would cause each Purchaser irreparable harm, and consents to the granting of injunctive relief by any court having jurisdiction to preclude any such issuance of securities. 5.16 PAYMENT SET ASIDE. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. -29- 5.17 USURY. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any claim, action or proceeding that may be brought by any Purchaser in order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company under the Transaction Documents for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the "MAXIMUM RATE"), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under the Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents from the effective date forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to any Purchaser with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents, such excess shall be applied by such Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at such Purchaser's election. 5.18 INDEPENDENT NATURE OF PURCHASERS' OBLIGATIONS AND RIGHTS. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Document. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in their review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of administrative convenience only, Purchasers and their respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through FW. FW does not represent all of the Purchasers but only Omicron. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Purchasers. 5.19 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. The Company's obligations to pay any liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such liquidated damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled. *********************** -30- IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Securities Purchase Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized signatories as of the date first indicated above.

THESE SECURITIES AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES. Original Issue Date Set Price: $1.32 Original Issue Date: March 15, 2004 $_______________ 9% CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE DUE MAY 15, 2006 THIS DEBENTURE is one of a series of duly authorized and issued Debentures of Island Pacific, Inc., a Delaware corporation, having a principal place of business at 3252 Holiday Court, Suite 208, La Jolla 92037 (the "COMPANY"), designated as its 9% Convertible Debenture, due May 15, 2006 (the "DEBENTURES"). FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company promises to pay to ___________________ or its registered assigns (the "HOLDER"), the principal sum of $_______________ on May 15, 2006 or such earlier date as the Debentures are required or permitted to be repaid as provided hereunder (the "MATURITY DATE") and to pay interest to the Holder on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding principal amount of this Debenture at the rate of 9% per annum, payable quarterly on March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1, beginning on the first such date after the Original Issue Date and on each Conversion Date (as to that principal amount then being converted), on each Monthly Redemption Date (as to that principal amount then being redeemed) and on the Maturity Date (except that, if any such date is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be due on the next succeeding Business Day) (each such date, an "INTEREST PAYMENT DATE"), in cash or shares of Common Stock at the Interest Conversion Rate, or a combination thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, payment in shares of Common Stock may only occur if during the 20 Trading Days immediately prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date all of the Equity Conditions have been met and the Company shall have given A-1 the Holder notice in accordance with the notice requirements set forth below. Subject to the terms and conditions herein, the decision whether to pay interest hereunder in shares of Common Stock or cash shall be at the discretion of the Company. Not less than 20 Trading Days prior to each Interest Payment Date, the Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of its election to pay interest hereunder either in cash or shares of Common Stock (the Company may indicate in such notice that the election contained in such notice shall continue for later periods until revised). Within 20 Trading Days prior to an Interest Payment Date, the Company's election (whether specific to an Interest Payment Date or continuous) shall be irrevocable as to such Interest Payment Date. Subject to the aforementioned conditions, failure to timely provide such written notice shall be deemed an election by the Company to pay the interest on such Interest Payment Date in cash. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and shall accrue daily commencing on the Original Issue Date until payment in full of the principal sum, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts which may become due hereunder, has been made. Payment of interest in shares of Common Stock shall otherwise occur pursuant to Section 4(b) and for purposes of the payment of interest in shares only, the Interest Payment Date shall be deemed the Conversion Date. Interest shall cease to accrue with respect to any principal amount converted, provided that the Company in fact delivers the Conversion Shares within the time period required by Section 4(b)(i). Interest hereunder will be paid to the Person in whose name this Debenture is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of Debentures (the "DEBENTURE REGISTER"). Except as otherwise provided herein, if at anytime the Company pays interest partially in cash and partially in shares of Common Stock, then such payment shall be distributed ratably among the Holders based upon the principal amount of Debentures held by each Holder. All overdue accrued and unpaid interest to be paid hereunder shall entail a late fee at the rate of 12% per annum (or such lower maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law) ("LATE FEE") which will accrue daily, from the date such interest is due hereunder through and including the date of payment. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 5(A) OF THIS DEBENTURE, THE COMPANY MAY NOT PREPAY ANY PORTION OF THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT ON THIS DEBENTURE WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE HOLDER. This Debenture is subject to the following additional provisions: SECTION 1. This Debenture is exchangeable for an equal aggregate principal amount of Debentures of different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for such registration of transfer or exchange. SECTION 2. This Debenture has been issued subject to certain investment representations of the original Holder set forth in the Purchase Agreement and may be transferred or exchanged only in compliance with the Purchase Agreement and applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations. The Holder hereof, by acceptance of this Debenture, agrees to be bound by the covenants made by the original Holder contained in the Purchase Agreement. Prior to due presentment to the Company for transfer of this Debenture, the Company and any A-2 agent of the Company may treat the Person in whose name this Debenture is duly registered on the Debenture Register as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as herein provided and for all other purposes, whether or not this Debenture is overdue, and neither the Company nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(ii) the Company shall fail to observe or perform any other covenant, agreement or warranty contained in, or otherwise commit any breach of any of the Transaction Documents (other than a breach by the Company of its obligations to deliver shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon conversion or interest payment which breach is addressed in clause (x) below) which is not cured, if possible to cure, within 5 days of notice of such default sent by the Holder (except with respect to breaches pursuant to Sections 4.1, 4.8 and 4.9 of the Purchase Agreement and Section 3(a) of the Warrant);

Interest shall continue to accrue on the Mandatory Prepayment Amount hereunder from the 5th day after such amount is due (being the date of an Event of Default) through the date of prepayment in full thereof in an amount equal to the Late Fee, to accrue daily from the date such payment is due hereunder through and including the date of payment. All Debentures for which the full Mandatory Prepayment Amount hereunder shall have been paid in accordance herewith shall promptly be surrendered to or as directed by the Company. The Holder need not provide and the Company hereby waives any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such declaration may be rescinded and annulled by Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall have all rights as a Debenture holder until such time, if any, as the full payment under this Section shall have been received by it. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. A-5 SECTION 4. CONVERSION. (a) (i) At any time after the Original Issue Date until this Debenture is no longer outstanding, this Debenture shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time (subject to the limitations on conversion set forth in Section 4(a)(ii) hereof). The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company the form of Notice of Conversion attached hereto as ANNEX A (a "NOTICE OF CONVERSION"), specifying therein the principal amount of Debentures to be converted and the date on which such conversion is to be effected (a "CONVERSION DATE") and shall contain a completed schedule in the form of SCHEDULE 1 to the Notice of Conversion (as amended on each Conversion Date, the "CONVERSION SCHEDULE") reflecting the remaining principal amount of this Debenture and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon subsequent to the conversion at issue. If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is provided hereunder. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender Debentures to the Company unless the entire principal amount of this Debenture has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon in an amount equal to the applicable conversion, which shall be evidenced by entries set forth in the Conversion Schedule. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount converted and the date of such conversions. The Company shall deliver any objection to the figures represented in the Conversion Schedules within 1 Business Day of receipt of such notice. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Debenture, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Debenture may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof. (ii) CERTAIN CONVERSION RESTRICTIONS. (A) The Company shall not effect any conversion of this Debenture, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Debenture, pursuant to Section 4(a)(i) or otherwise, or receive shares of Common Stock in lieu of interest payments, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, or receipt of shares of Common Stock in lieu of interest payments, the Holder (together with the Holder's affiliates), as set forth on the applicable Notice of Conversion, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving A-6 effect to such conversion. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of this Debenture beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Debentures or the Warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4(a)(ii), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. To the extent that the limitation contained in this section applies, the determination of whether this Debenture is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder) and of which a portion of this Debenture is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder. To ensure compliance with this restriction, the Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For purposes of this Section 4(a)(ii), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company's most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Company's Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Debenture, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. (B) If the Company has not obtained Shareholder Approval (as defined below), if required by the applicable rules and regulations of the Principal Market (or any successor entity), then the Company may not issue upon conversion of the Debentures, in the aggregate, in excess of 19.999% of A-7 the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Original Issue Date, less any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of or as payment of interest on the Debentures or upon prior exercise of this or any other Warrant issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (such number of shares, the "ISSUABLE MAXIMUM"). PROVIDED, HOWEVER, any Warrant Shares previously issued upon exercise of the Series A Warrants shall not be included in any such calculation unless the Exercise Price thereof is less than the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Closing Date (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement). On any given date, each Holder shall be entitled to a portion of the Issuable Maximum equal to the product of (y) the fraction determined by dividing the number of Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares (notwithstanding any conversion or exercise limitation set forth in the Debentures or Warrants) then held by such Holder as of such date by the aggregate number of such Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares held by all Holders as of such date and (z) the difference between the Issuable Maximum and the number of shares of Common Stock issued, in the aggregate among all Holders, pursuant to any conversions of Debentures or exercise of Warrants prior to such date. If on any Conversion Date: (A) the applicable Set Price then in effect is such that the shares issuable under this Debenture on any Conversion Date together with the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would then be issuable upon conversion in full of all then outstanding Debentures would exceed the Issuable Maximum, and (B) the Company shall not have obtained Shareholder Approval, then the Company shall issue to the Holder requesting a conversion a number of shares of Common Stock equal to such Holder's pro-rata portion (which shall be calculated pursuant to the terms above) of the Issuable Maximum and, with respect to the remainder of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures (including any accrued interest) then held by such Holder for which a conversion in accordance with the applicable conversion price would result in an issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of such Holder's pro-rata portion (which shall be calculated pursuant to the terms hereof) of the Issuable Maximum (the "EXCESS PRINCIPAL"), the Company shall be prohibited from converting such Excess Principal, and shall notify the Holder of the reason therefor. This Debenture shall thereafter be unconvertible until and unless Shareholder Approval is subsequently obtained or is otherwise not required, but this Debenture shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. The Company and the Holder understand and agree that shares of Common Stock issued to and then held by the Holder as a result of conversions of Debentures shall A-8 not be entitled to cast votes on any resolution to obtain Shareholder Approval pursuant hereto. For clarity, the failure of the Company to actually obtain Shareholder Approval shall not be a breach of covenant or Event of Default under Section 3 of this Debenture, provided, that any issuance of securities which results in an adjustment to the Set Price (other than pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii)) without the Company having previously sought and voted on Shareholder Approval as set forth in the Purchase Agreement shall be a breach of covenant in the Purchase Agreement and an Event of Default under Section 3(a)(ii). (iii) CONVERSION SHARES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION AND PURSUANT TO INTEREST. (A) CONVERSION OF PRINCIPAL AMOUNT. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture to be converted by (y) the Set Price, and (B) PAYMENT OF INTEREST IN CONVERSION SHARES. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon payment of interest under this Debenture shall be the number determined by (x) the product of (I) the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture to be converted and (II) the product of (aa) the quotient obtained by dividing 9% by 360 and (bb) the number of days for which such principal amount was outstanding, divided by (y) the applicable Interest Conversion Rate, PROVIDED, that if the Company shall have elected to pay the -------- interest due on an Interest Payment Date in cash pursuant to the terms hereof, this subsection (B) shall not be used in the calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion hereunder. (C) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if on any Conversion Date: (1) the number of shares of Common Stock at the time authorized, unissued and unreserved for all purposes, or held as treasury stock, is insufficient to honor such conversion; (2) the Common Stock shall fail to be listed or quoted for trading on a Principal Market; or (3) the Company has failed to timely satisfy its conversion obligations hereunder. A-9 and, with respect to such delivery, no prior demand has been made by the Holder pursuant to Section 4(b)(ii) or Section 4(b)(iii), then, at the option of the Holder, the Company, in lieu of delivering shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 4, shall deliver, within five Trading Days of each applicable Conversion Date, an amount in cash equal to the product of the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable to the Holder in connection with such Conversion Date and the highest VWAP during the period commencing on the Conversion Date and ending on the Trading Day prior to the date such payment is made. (b) (i) Not later than five Trading Days after any Conversion Date, the Company will deliver to the Holder (A) a certificate or certificates for the Shares of Common Stock which shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those required by the Purchase Agreement) representing the number of shares of Common Stock being acquired upon the conversion of Debentures and (B) a bank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid interest (if the Company has timely elected or is required to pay accrued interest in cash). The Company shall, upon request of the Holder, if available and if allowed under applicable securities laws, use its best efforts to deliver any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the Company under this Section electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions. If in the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the fifth Trading Day after a Conversion Date, the Holder shall be entitled by written notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates thereafter, to rescind such conversion, in which event the Company shall immediately return the certificates representing the principal amount of Debentures tendered for conversion. (ii) If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(b)(i) by the fifth Trading Day after the Conversion Date, and, with respect to such delivery, no prior demand has been made by the Holder pursuant to Section 4(a)(iii)(C) or Section 4(b)(iii) the Company shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $5,000 of principal amount being converted, $50 per Trading Day (increasing to $100 per Trading Day after 3 Trading Days and increasing to $200 per Trading Day 6 Trading Days after such damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such fifth Trading Day until such certificates are delivered. The Company's obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Debenture in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective A-10 of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company may have against the Holder. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3 herein for the Company's failure to deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holders from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law. (iii) In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(b)(i) by the fifth Trading Day after the Conversion Date, and with respect to such delivery, no prior demand has been made by the Holder pursuant to Section 4(a)(iii)(C) or Section 4(b)(ii), if after such fifth Trading Day the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such conversion (a "BUY-IN"), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount by which (x) the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder anticipated receiving from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price of the Common Stock at the time of the sale (including brokerage commissions, if any) giving rise to such purchase obligation and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reissue Debentures in principal amount equal to the principal amount of the attempted conversion or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 4(b)(i). For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of Debentures with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares at the time of the sale (including brokerage commissions, if any) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause A-11 (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if a Holder requires the Company to make payment in respect of a Buy-In for the failure to timely deliver certificates hereunder and the Company timely pays in full such payment, the Company shall not be required to pay such Holder liquidated damages under Section 4(b)(ii) in respect of the certificates resulting in such Buy-In. (iv) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if after the Effective Date the VWAPs for any 15 consecutive Trading Days exceeds the then Set Price by more than 200% (such 15 Trading Day period not commencing until after the Effective Date), the Company may, within 2 Trading Days of the end of any such period, deliver a notice to the Holder (a "FORCED NOTICE OF CONVERSION" and the date such notice is received by the Holder, the "FORCED NOTICE OF CONVERSION DATE") to cause the Holder to immediately convert all or part (and if part, pro-rata in proportion to each Holders initial purchase of the Debentures) of the then outstanding principal amount of Debentures pursuant to Section 4(a)(i). The Company may only effect a Forced Conversion Notice if all of the Equity Conditions are met through the applicable Threshold Period until the date of the applicable Forced Conversion. Any Forced Conversion shall be applied ratably to all Holders based on their initial purchases of Debentures pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. (c) (i) The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to $1.32 (subject to adjustment herein)(the "SET PRICE"). (ii) If the Company, at any time while the Debentures are outstanding: (A) shall pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to this Debenture, including as interest thereon), (B) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (C) combine (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (D) issue by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Set Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to A-12 receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification. (iii) If the Company, at any time while Debentures are outstanding, shall issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holders) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at a price per share less than the VWAP at the record date mentioned below, then the Set Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Set Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase, and of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered would purchase at the VWAP on the record date. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such rights, options or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants. (iv) If the Company, any subsidiary thereof or The Sage Group, Plc (or any Affiliates thereof), as applicable, at any time while Debentures are outstanding, shall offer, sell, grant any option to purchase or offer, sell or grant any right to reprice its securities of the Company, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock or any equity or equity equivalent securities (including any equity, debt or other instrument that is at any time over the life thereof convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock) (collectively, "COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENTS") entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock, at an effective price per share less than 87% of the then Set Price ("DILUTIVE ISSUANCE"), as adjusted hereunder (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which is issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share which is less than the Set Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Set Price), then the Set Price shall be reduced, only if such adjustment will result in a reduction, to equal 115% of the lowest effective price per share of such Dilutive Issuance. Such adjustment shall be made whenever an event that causes a reduction hereunder occurs. The Company shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than the Business Day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent subject to this A-13 section, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or of applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms. (v) If the Company, at any time while Debentures are outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holders) evidences of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, then in each such case the Set Price shall be determined by multiplying such price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holders of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above. (vi) [RESERVED] (vii) All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 4, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding. (viii) The Company agrees that it is prohibited from taking any actions specified in Sections 4(c)(iii)-(v) which would result in any adjustment to the Set Price prior to submitting the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement to a vote for Shareholder Approval. Whenever the Set Price is adjusted pursuant to any of Section 4(c)(ii) - (v), the Company shall promptly mail to each Holder a notice setting forth the Set Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. (ix) If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on the Common Stock; (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock; (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights; (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any A-14 consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property; (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company; then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of the Debentures, and shall cause to be mailed to the Holders at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the stock books of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; PROVIDED, that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. Holders are entitled to convert Debentures during the 20-day period commencing the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice. (x) If, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which all holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a "FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION"), then upon any subsequent conversion of this Debenture, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Underlying Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion absent such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one share of Common Stock (the "ALTERNATE CONSIDERATION"). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Set Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate A-15 Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Set Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Debenture following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new debenture consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to convert such debenture into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this paragraph (c) and insuring that this Debenture (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction. (xi) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this paragraph (c) in respect of (A) the granting or issuance of shares of capital stock or of options to employees, officers, directors and key consultants of the Company pursuant to any stock option plan agreement or arrangement duly adopted or approved by a majority of the non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose, (B) upon the exercise of this Debenture or any other Debenture of this series or of any other series or security issued by the Company in connection with the offer and sale of this Company's securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, or (C) upon the exercise of or conversion of any Convertible Securities, options or warrants issued and outstanding on the Original Issue Date, provided such securities have not been amended since the date of the Purchase Agreement, or (D) issuance of securities in connection with acquisitions, strategic investments, or strategic partnering arrangements, the primary purpose of which is not to raise capital, or (E) sales or transfers of shares of Common Stock from The Sage Group, Plc (or any Affiliates thereof) to the Company whereupon such shares are cancelled. (xii) At any time the Company either negatively restates any of its financial statements relating to, or makes any public disclosure that negatively revises or negatively adds to any prior disclosure of, any material transactions of the Company consummated prior to the Original Issue Date, the Set Price shall be reduced, and only reduced, to equal the lowest VWAP during the 5 Trading Days immediately following A-16 any such public announcement. For clarification, if such VWAP is above the then Set Price, no adjustment will occur hereunder at such time. (d) The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Debentures and payment of interest on the Debentures, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holders, not less than such number of shares of the Common Stock as shall (subject to any additional requirements of the Company as to reservation of such shares set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 4(b)) upon the conversion of the outstanding principal amount of the Debentures and payment of interest hereunder. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid, nonassessable and, if the Underlying Shares Registration Statement has been declared effective under the Securities Act, registered for public sale in accordance with such Underlying Shares Registration Statement. (e) Upon a conversion hereunder the Company shall not be required to issue stock certificates representing fractions of shares of the Common Stock, but may if otherwise permitted, make a cash payment in respect of any final fraction of a share based on the VWAP at such time. If the Company elects not, or is unable, to make such a cash payment, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the final fraction of a share, one whole share of Common Stock. (f) The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of the Debentures shall be made without charge to the Holders thereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificate, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of such Debentures so converted and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. (g) Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Holders hereunder, including, without limitation, any Notice of Conversion, shall be in writing and delivered personally, by facsimile, sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Company, at the address set forth above, FACSIMILE NUMBER ___________, ATTN: ____________ or such other address or facsimile number as the Company may specify for such purposes by notice to the A-17 Holders delivered in accordance with this Section. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Company hereunder shall be in writing and delivered personally, by facsimile, sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, addressed to each Holder at the facsimile telephone number or address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company, or if no such facsimile telephone number or address appears, at the principal place of business of the Holder. Any notice or other communication or deliveries hereunder shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile telephone number specified in this Section prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time), (ii) the date after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile telephone number specified in this Section later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any date and earlier than 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on such date, (iii) four days after deposit in the United States mail, (iv) the Business Day following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (v) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. SECTION 5. REDEMPTION. (a) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. Subject to the provisions of this Section 5, the Company may, at any time, deliver a notice to the Holders (an "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION NOTICE" and the date such notice is deemed delivered hereunder, the "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION NOTICE DATE") of its irrevocable election to redeem all, but not less than all, of the then outstanding Debentures, for an amount, in cash, equal to the Optional Redemption Amount on the 30th Trading Day following the Optional Redemption Notice Date (such date, the "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION DATE" and such redemption, the "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION"). The Optional Redemption Amount is due in full on the Optional Redemption Date. The Company may only effect from the Optional Redemption Notice Date through to the Optional Redemption Date. The Holders may convert, pursuant to Section 4(a)(i) hereof, any shares of Debentures subject to an Optional Redemption at any time prior to the date that the Optional Redemption Amount and all amounts owing thereon are due and paid in full. The Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Notice of Conversions tendered from the time of delivery of the Optional Redemption Notice through the date all amounts owing thereon are due and paid in full. The Company's right to redeem the Debentures shall be applied ratably to the Holders in proportion to each Holder's initial purchase of Debentures under the Purchase Agreement. (b) MONTHLY REDEMPTION. On each Monthly Redemption Date, the Company shall redeem each Holder's Pro Rata Portion of the Monthly Redemption Amount plus accrued but unpaid interest, the sum of all liquidated damages and any other amounts then owing to such Holder in respect of the Debenture. For purposes of this subsection 5(b) only, A-18 "PRO RATA PORTION" is the ration of (x) the principal amount of this Debenture on the Original Issue Date and (y) the sum of the aggregate original principal amounts of the Debentures issued to all Holders. If any Holder shall no longer holds Debentures, then the Pro Rata Portion shall be recalculated to exclude such Holder's principal amount from clause (y) above and the Monthly Redemption Amount shall be allocated pro-rata among the remaining Holders. The Monthly Redemption Amount due on each Monthly Redemption Date shall, except as provided in this Section, be paid in cash. As to any Monthly Redemption and upon 20 Trading Days' prior written irrevocable notice, in lieu of a cash redemption payment the Company may elect to pay 100% of a Monthly Redemption in Conversion Shares based on a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) 90% of the average of the 20 VWAPs immediately prior to the applicable Monthly Redemption Date (subject to adjustment for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar event affecting the Common Stock during such 20 Trading Day period) and (ii) the Set Price (the "MONTHLY CONVERSION PRICE"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company may not pay the Monthly Redemption Amount in Conversion Shares unless, on the Monthly Redemption Date and during the 20 Trading Day period immediately prior thereto, the Equity Conditions have been satisfied. The Holders may convert, pursuant to Section 4(a)(i), any principal amount of the Debenture subject to a Monthly Redemption at any time prior to the date that the Monthly Redemption Amount and all amounts owing thereon are due and paid in full. Any principal amount of Debenture converted during any 20 day period until the date the Monthly Redemption Amount is paid shall be first applied to principal amount subject to the Monthly Redemption and such Holder's cash payment of the Monthly Redemption Amount on such Monthly Redemption Date shall be reduced accordingly. The Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Notice of Conversions tendered up until such amounts are paid in full. (c) REDEMPTION PROCEDURE. The payment of cash and/or issuance of Common Stock, as the case may be, pursuant to a Monthly Redemption shall be made on the Monthly Redemption Date and the payment of cash pursuant to an Optional Redemption shall be made on the Optional Redemption Date. If any portion of the cash payment for a Monthly Redemption or Optional Redemption shall not be paid by the Company by the respective due date, interest shall accrue thereon at the rate of 18% per annum (or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is less) until the payment of the Monthly Redemption Amount or Optional Redemption Amount, as applicable, plus all amounts owing thereon is paid in full. In addition, if any portion of the Monthly Redemption Amount or Optional Redemption Amount, as applicable, remains unpaid after such date, the Holders subject to such redemption may elect, by written notice to the Company given at any time thereafter, to invalidate AB INITIO such redemption, notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, the Company's determination to redeem in cash or shares of Common Stock shall be applied ratably among the Holders based upon the principal amount of Debentures initially A-19 purchased by each Holder, adjusted upward ratably in the event all of the shares of Debentures of any Holder are no longer outstanding.

CAPITALIZED TERMS USED AND NOT OTHERWISE DEFINED HEREIN SHALL HAVE THE MEANINGS SET FORTH IN THAT CERTAIN SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (THE "PURCHASE AGREEMENT"), DATED MARCH 15, 2004, BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE INVESTORS SIGNATORY THERETO. C-1 1. TITLE TO WARRANT. Prior to the Termination Date and subject to compliance with applicable laws and Section 7 of this Warrant, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part to an Affiliate of the Holder, at the office or agency of the Company by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant together with the Assignment Form annexed hereto properly endorsed. The transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company. The Holder hereof, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees to be bound by the covenants made by the original Holder contained in the Purchase Agreement. 2. AUTHORIZATION OF SHARES. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue). 3. EXERCISE OF WARRANT. (a) Except as provided in Section 4 herein, exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by the surrender of this Warrant and the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto duly executed, at the office of the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company) and upon payment of the Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier's check drawn on a United States bank or by means of a cashless exercise pursuant to Section 3(d), the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares so purchased. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be delivered to the Holder within five (5) Trading Days after the date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised as aforesaid. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 5 prior to the issuance of such shares, have been paid. If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to this Section 3(a) by the fifth Trading Day after the date of exercise, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise by the fifth Trading Day after the date of exercise, and if after such fifth Trading Day the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a "BUY-IN"), then the Company shall (1) pay in cash C-2 to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Company. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company's failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. (b) If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant. (c) (i) The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 3(a) or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder's affiliates), as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Debentures or Warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 3(c), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 3(c) C-3 applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder) and of which a portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be such Holder's determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to such aggregate percentage limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For purposes of this Section 3(c), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company's most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Company's Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. (ii) If the Company has not obtained Shareholder Approval (as defined below) if required and, pursuant to Section 11(b) herein the Exercise Price of this Warrant has been reduced to be below the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Closing Date (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement), then the Company may not issue upon exercise of this Warrant in the aggregate, in excess of 19.999% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Closing Date, less any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of or as payment of interest on the Debentures or upon prior exercise of this or any other Warrant issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (such number of shares, the "ISSUABLE MAXIMUM"). If on any attempted exercise of this Warrant, the issuance of Warrant Shares would exceed the Issuable Maximum and the Company shall not have previously obtained the vote of shareholders (the "SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL"), if any, as may be required by the applicable rules and regulations of the Principal Market (or any successor entity) to approve the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Issuable Maximum pursuant to the terms hereof, then the Company shall issue to the Holder requesting a Warrant exercise such number of Warrant Shares as may be issued below the Issuable Maximum and, with respect to the remainder of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares, this Warrant shall not be exercisable until and unless Shareholder Approval has been obtained. The Holder may, in its sole discretion, limit the effect of any adjustment pursuant to Section 11(b) to the extent it would otherwise cause this provision to prevent the issuance of all of the Warrant Shares. C-4 (d) If at any time after one year from the date of issuance of this Warrant there is no effective Registration Statement registering the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised at such time by means of a "cashless exercise" in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where: (A) = the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of such election; (B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted; and (X) = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise. (e) Subject to the provisions of this Section 3, if after the Effective Date the VWAP for twenty consecutive Trading Days (the "MEASUREMENT PRICE") exceeds 300% of the then Exercise Price (subject to adjustment herein) (the "THRESHOLD PRICE"), then the Company may, on one occasion and within two Trading Days of such period, call for cancellation of all or any portion of this Warrant for which a Notice of Exercise has not yet been delivered (such right, a "CALL"). To exercise this right, the Company must deliver to the Holder an irrevocable written notice (a "CALL NOTICE"), indicating therein the portion of unexercised portion of this Warrant to which such notice applies. If the conditions set forth below for such Call are satisfied from the period from the date of the Call Notice through and including the Call Date (as defined below), then any portion of this Warrant subject to such Call Notice for which a Notice of Exercise shall not have been received from and after the date of the Call Notice will be cancelled at 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the tenth Trading Day after the date the Call Notice is received by the Holder (such date, the "CALL DATE"). Any unexercised portion of this Warrant to which the Call Notice does not pertain will be unaffected by such Call Notice. In furtherance thereof, the Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Notices of Exercise with respect to Warrant Shares subject to a Call Notice that are tendered from the time of delivery of the Call Notice through 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the Call Date. The parties agree that any Notice of Exercise delivered following a Call Notice shall first reduce to zero the number of Warrant Shares subject to such Call Notice prior to reducing the remaining Warrant Shares available for purchase under this Warrant. For example, if (x) this Warrant then permits the Holder to acquire 100 Warrant Shares, (y) a Call Notice pertains to 75 Warrant Shares, and (z) prior to 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the Call Date the Holder tenders a Notice of Exercise in respect of 50 Warrant Shares, then (1) on the Call Date the right under this Warrant to acquire 25 Warrant Shares will be automatically cancelled, (2) the Company, in the time and manner required under this Warrant, will have issued and delivered to the Holder 50 Warrant Shares in respect of the exercises following receipt of the Call Notice, and (3) the Holder may, until the Termination Date, exercise this Warrant for 25 Warrant Shares (subject to adjustment as herein provided and subject to subsequent Call Notices). Subject again to the provisions of this Section 10, the Company may deliver C-5 subsequent Call Notices for any portion of this Warrant for which the Holder shall not have delivered a Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Warrant, the Company may not deliver a Call Notice or require the cancellation of this Warrant (and any Call Notice will be void), unless, from the beginning of the 20 consecutive Trading Days used to determine whether the Common Stock has achieved the Threshold Price through the Call Date, (i) the Measurement Price equals or exceeds the Threshold Price, (ii) the Company shall have honored in accordance with the terms of this Warrant all Notices of Exercise delivered by 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the Call Date, (iii) the Registration Statement shall be effective as to all Warrant Shares and the prospectus thereunder available for use by the Holder for the resale all such Warrant Shares and (iv) the Common Stock shall be listed or quoted for trading on the Principal Market. 4. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES OR SCRIP. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price. 5. CHARGES, TAXES AND EXPENSES. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in the event certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder; and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. 6. CLOSING OF BOOKS. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof. 7. TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION. (a) Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Sections 1 and 7(f) hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall C-6 promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued. (b) This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 7(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. (c) The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense (other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 7. (d) The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office, books for the registration and the registration of transfer of the Warrants. (e) If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer (i) that the Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, (ii) that the holder or transferee execute and deliver to the Company an investment letter in form and substance acceptable to the Company and (iii) that the transferee be an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act. 8. NO RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER UNTIL EXERCISE. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (or by means of a cashless exercise), the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the later of the date of such surrender or payment. 9. LOSS, THEFT, DESTRUCTION OR MUTILATION OF WARRANT. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate. C-7 10. SATURDAYS, SUNDAYS, HOLIDAYS, ETC. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday. 11. ADJUSTMENTS OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. (a) STOCK SPLITS, ETC. The number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of any of the following. In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock to holders of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock, then the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which it would have owned or have been entitled to receive had such Warrant been exercised in advance thereof. Upon each such adjustment of the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which are purchasable hereunder, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other securities resulting from such adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share or other security obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing by the number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company that are immediately purchasable hereto immediately thereafter resulting from such adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event. (b) ANTI-DILUTION PROVISIONS. During the Exercise Period, the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 11(b). In the event that any adjustment of the Exercise Price as required herein results in a fraction of a cent, such Exercise Price shall be rounded up or down to the nearest cent. (i) ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. Except as set forth in Section 11(b)(ii)(E), if and whenever the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or The Sage Group, plc (or any Affiliates thereof), as applicable, issues or sells, or in accordance with Section 11(b) hereof is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock for an effective consideration per share of less than the then Exercise Price or for no consideration (such lower price, the "BASE SHARE PRICE" and such issuances collectively, a "DILUTIVE ISSUANCE"), then, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to equal the Base Share Price, PROVIDED, that for purposes hereof, all shares of Common Stock that are issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange of Capital Share Equivalents shall be deemed outstanding immediately after the issuance of such Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such shares of Common Stock or Capital Share Equivalents are issued or sold. C-8 (ii) EFFECT ON EXERCISE PRICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS. For purposes of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under Section 11(b) hereof, the following will be applicable: (A) ISSUANCE OF RIGHTS OR OPTIONS. If the Company in any manner issues or grants any warrants, rights or options, whether or not immediately exercisable, to subscribe for or to purchase Common Stock or other securities exercisable, convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock ("CONVERTIBLE Securities") (such warrants, rights and options to purchase Common Stock or Convertible Securities are hereinafter referred to as "OPTIONS") and the effective price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options is less than the Exercise Price ("BELOW BASE PRICE OPTIONS"), then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Below Base Price Options (assuming full exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable) will, as of the date of the issuance or grant of such Below Base Price Options, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share and the maximum consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise (assuming full exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable) will be deemed to have been received by the Company. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the "effective price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Below Base Price Options" is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or granting of all such Below Base Price Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Below Base Price Options, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Below Base Price Options, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become exercisable, convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Below Base Price Options (assuming full conversion of Convertible Securities, if applicable). No further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon the exercise of such Below Base Price Options or upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Below Base Price Options. (B) ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not immediately C-9 convertible (other than where the same are issuable upon the exercise of Options) and the effective price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such exercise, conversion or exchange is less than the Exercise Price, then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities will, as of the date of the issuance of such Convertible Securities, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share and the maximum consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise (assuming full exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable) will be deemed to have been received by the Company. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the "effective price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such exercise, conversion or exchange" is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become exercisable, convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon exercise, conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities. (C) CHANGE IN OPTION PRICE OR CONVERSION RATE. If there is a change at any time in (i) the amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of any Options; (ii) the amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities; or (iii) the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (in each such case, other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such change will be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. (D) CALCULATION OF CONSIDERATION RECEIVED. If any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued, granted or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor for purposes of this Warrant will be the amount received by the Company therefor, before deduction of reasonable commissions, underwriting discounts or allowances or other reasonable expenses paid or incurred by the Company in connection with such issuance, grant or sale. In case any Common Stock, Options or Convertible C-10 Securities are issued or sold for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company will be the fair market value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the fair market value (average of the closing bid and ask price, if traded on any market) thereof as of the date of receipt. In case any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued in connection with any merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair market value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving corporation as is attributable to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair market value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, or if the Holder reasonably objects to such valuation, by an investment banker or other appropriate expert of national reputation selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the holder hereof, with the costs of such appraisal to be borne by the Company. (E) EXCEPTIONS TO ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 11(b) in respect of (1) the granting or issuance of shares of capital stock or of options to employees, consultants, officers and directors of the Company pursuant to any stock option plan, agreement or arrangement duly adopted or approved by a majority of the non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose, (2) upon the exercise of the Debentures or any Debentures of this series or of any other series or security issued by the Company in connection with the offer and sale of this Company's securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, or (3) upon the exercise of or conversion of any convertible securities, options or warrants issued and outstanding on the Original Issue Date, provided that the securities have not been amended since the date of the Purchase Agreement, or (4) issuance of securities in connection with acquisitions, strategic investments, or strategic partnering arrangements, the primary purpose of which is not to raise capital, or (5) sales or transfers of shares of Common Stock from The Sage Group, Plc (or any Affiliates thereof) to the Company whereupon such shares are cancelled. (F) At any time the Company either negatively restates any of its financial statements relating to, or makes any public disclosure that negatively revises or negatively adds to any prior disclosure of, any material transactions of the Company consummated prior to the date hereof, the Set Price shall be reduced, and only reduced, to equal the lowest VWAP during the 5 Trading Days immediately following any such public announcement. For C-11 clarification, if such VWAP is above the then Set Price, no adjustment will occur hereunder at such time. (iii) MINIMUM ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount of less than 1% of the Exercise Price in effect at the time such adjustment is otherwise required to be made, but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to not less than 1% of such Exercise Price. 12. REORGANIZATION, RECLASSIFICATION, MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("OTHER PROPERTY"), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, at the option of the Holder, (a) upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event, or (b) cash equal to the value of this Warrant as determined in accordance with the Black-Sholes option pricing formula. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 12. For purposes of this Section 12, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 12 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets. C-12 13. VOLUNTARY ADJUSTMENT BY THE COMPANY. The Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company. 14. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or number or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the number of Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made. 15. NOTICE OF CORPORATE ACTION. If at any time: (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or (b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the property, assets or business of the Company to, another corporation or, (c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at least 20 days' prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and (ii) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 20 days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character thereof, and (ii) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Warrant Shares for securities or other property deliverable upon such disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Each such written notice shall be sufficiently given if addressed to Holder at the last address of Holder appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in accordance with Section 17(d). C-13 16. AUTHORIZED SHARES. The Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Principal Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant. Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof. 17. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) JURISDICTION. This Warrant shall constitute a contract under the laws of California, without regard to its conflict of law, principles or rules. (b) RESTRICTIONS. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws. (c) NONWAIVER AND EXPENSES. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder's rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and C-14 expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder. (d) NOTICES. Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement. (e) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant or purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. (f) REMEDIES. Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate. (g) SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all Holders from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by any such Holder or holder of Warrant Shares. (h) AMENDMENT. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder. (i) SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant. (j) HEADINGS. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant. ******************** C-15 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be executed by its officer thereunto duly authorized.

In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise by the fifth Trading Day after the date of exercise, and if after such fifth Trading Day the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a "BUY-IN"), then the Company shall (1) pay in cash D-2 to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Company. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company's failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. (b) If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant. (c) (i) The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 3(a) or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder's affiliates), as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Debentures or Warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 3(c), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 3(c) D-3 applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder) and of which a portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be such Holder's determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to such aggregate percentage limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For purposes of this Section 3(c), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company's most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Company's Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. (ii) If the Company has not obtained Shareholder Approval (as defined below) if required, then the Company may not issue upon exercise of this Warrant in the aggregate, in excess of 19.999% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Closing Date, less any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of or as payment of interest on the Debentures or upon prior exercise of this or any other Warrant issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (such number of shares, the "ISSUABLE Maximum"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, any Warrant Shares previously issued upon exercise of the Series A Warrants shall not be included in any such calculation unless the Exercise Price thereof is less than the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Closing Date (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement). If on any attempted exercise of this Warrant, the issuance of Warrant Shares would exceed the Issuable Maximum and the Company shall not have previously obtained the vote of shareholders (the "SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL"), if any, as may be required by the applicable rules and regulations of the Principal Market (or any successor entity) to approve the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Issuable Maximum pursuant to the terms hereof, then the Company shall issue to the Holder requesting a Warrant exercise such number of Warrant Shares as may be issued below the Issuable Maximum and, with respect to the remainder of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares, this Warrant shall not be exercisable until and unless Shareholder Approval has been obtained. D-4 4. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES OR SCRIP. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price. 5. CHARGES, TAXES AND EXPENSES. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in the event certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder; and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. 6. CLOSING OF BOOKS. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof. 7. TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION. (a) Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Sections 1 and 7(f) hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued. (b) This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 7(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. (c) The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense (other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 7. D-5 (d) The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office, books for the registration and the registration of transfer of the Warrants. (e) If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer (i) that the Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, (ii) that the holder or transferee execute and deliver to the Company an investment letter in form and substance acceptable to the Company and (iii) that the transferee be an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act. 8. NO RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER UNTIL EXERCISE. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (or by means of a cashless exercise), the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the later of the date of such surrender or payment. 9. LOSS, THEFT, DESTRUCTION OR MUTILATION OF WARRANT. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate. 10. SATURDAYS, SUNDAYS, HOLIDAYS, ETC. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday. 11. ADJUSTMENTS OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. (a) STOCK SPLITS, ETC. The number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of any of the following. In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock to holders of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock, then the D-6 number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which it would have owned or have been entitled to receive had such Warrant been exercised in advance thereof. Upon each such adjustment of the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which are purchasable hereunder, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other securities resulting from such adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share or other security obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing by the number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company that are immediately purchasable hereto immediately thereafter resulting from such adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event. (b) ANTI-DILUTION PROVISIONS. During the Exercise Period, the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 11(b). In the event that any adjustment of the Exercise Price as required herein results in a fraction of a cent, such Exercise Price shall be rounded up or down to the nearest cent. (i) ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. Except as set forth in Section 11(b)(ii)(E), if and whenever the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or The Sage Group, plc (or any Affiliates thereof), as applicable, issues or sells in a public offering, or in accordance with Section 11(b) hereof is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock in a public offering, for an effective consideration per share of less than the then Exercise Price or for no consideration (such lower price, the "BASE SHARE PRICE" and such issuances collectively, a "DILUTIVE ISSUANCE"), then, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to equal the Base Share Price, PROVIDED, that for purposes hereof, all shares of Common Stock that are issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange of Capital Share Equivalents shall be deemed outstanding immediately after the issuance of such Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such shares of Common Stock or Capital Share Equivalents are issued or sold. (ii) EFFECT ON EXERCISE PRICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS. For purposes of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under Section 11(b) hereof, the following will be applicable: (A) ISSUANCE OF RIGHTS OR OPTIONS. If the Company in any manner issues or grants any warrants, rights or options, whether or not immediately exercisable, to subscribe for or to purchase Common Stock or other securities exercisable, convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock ("CONVERTIBLE Securities") (such warrants, rights and options to purchase Common Stock or Convertible Securities are hereinafter referred to as "OPTIONS") and the effective price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options is less than the Exercise Price ("BELOW BASE PRICE OPTIONS"), then the maximum total number of shares of Common D-7 Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Below Base Price Options (assuming full exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable) will, as of the date of the issuance or grant of such Below Base Price Options, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share and the maximum consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise (assuming full exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable) will be deemed to have been received by the Company. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the "effective price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Below Base Price Options" is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or granting of all such Below Base Price Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Below Base Price Options, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Below Base Price Options, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become exercisable, convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Below Base Price Options (assuming full conversion of Convertible Securities, if applicable). No further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon the exercise of such Below Base Price Options or upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Below Base Price Options. (B) ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not immediately convertible (other than where the same are issuable upon the exercise of Options) and the effective price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such exercise, conversion or exchange is less than the Exercise Price, then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities will, as of the date of the issuance of such Convertible Securities, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share and the maximum consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise (assuming full exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable) will be deemed to have been received by the Company. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the "effective price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such exercise, conversion or exchange" is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate D-8 amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become exercisable, convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon exercise, conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities. (C) CHANGE IN OPTION PRICE OR CONVERSION RATE. If there is a change at any time in (i) the amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of any Options; (ii) the amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities; or (iii) the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (in each such case, other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such change will be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. (D) CALCULATION OF CONSIDERATION RECEIVED. If any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued, granted or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor for purposes of this Warrant will be the amount received by the Company therefor, before deduction of reasonable commissions, underwriting discounts or allowances or other reasonable expenses paid or incurred by the Company in connection with such issuance, grant or sale. In case any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company will be the fair market value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the fair market value (average of the closing bid and ask price, if traded on any market) thereof as of the date of receipt. In case any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued in connection with any merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair market value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving corporation as is attributable to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair market value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, or if the Holder reasonably objects to such valuation, by an D-9 investment banker or other appropriate expert of national reputation selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the holder hereof, with the costs of such appraisal to be borne by the Company. (E) EXCEPTIONS TO ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 11(b) in respect of (1) the granting or issuance of shares of capital stock or of options to employees, consultants, officers and directors of the Company pursuant to any stock option plan, agreement or arrangement duly adopted or approved by a majority of the non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose, (2) upon the exercise of the Debentures or any Debentures of this series or of any other series or security issued by the Company in connection with the offer and sale of this Company's securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, or (3) upon the exercise of or conversion of any convertible securities, options or warrants issued and outstanding on the Original Issue Date, provided that the securities have not been amended since the date of the Purchase Agreement, or (4) issuance of securities in connection with acquisitions, strategic investments, or strategic partnering arrangements, the primary purpose of which is not to raise capital, or (5) sales or transfers of shares of Common Stock from The Sage Group, Plc (or any Affiliates thereof) to the Company whereupon such shares are cancelled. (iii) MINIMUM ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount of less than 1% of the Exercise Price in effect at the time such adjustment is otherwise required to be made, but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to not less than 1% of such Exercise Price. 12. REORGANIZATION, RECLASSIFICATION, MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("OTHER PROPERTY"), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, at the option of the Holder, (a) upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation D-10 or disposition of assets by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event, or (b) cash equal to the value of this Warrant as determined in accordance with the Black-Sholes option pricing formula. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 12. For purposes of this Section 12, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 12 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets. 13. VOLUNTARY ADJUSTMENT BY THE COMPANY. The Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company. 14. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or number or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the number of Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made. 15. NOTICE OF CORPORATE ACTION. If at any time: (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or (b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the property, assets or business of the Company to, another corporation or, D-11 (c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at least 20 days' prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and (ii) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 20 days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character thereof, and (ii) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Warrant Shares for securities or other property deliverable upon such disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Each such written notice shall be sufficiently given if addressed to Holder at the last address of Holder appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in accordance with Section 17(d). 16. AUTHORIZED SHARES. The Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Principal Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant. D-12 Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof. 17. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) JURISDICTION. This Warrant shall constitute a contract under the laws of California, without regard to its conflict of law, principles or rules. (b) RESTRICTIONS. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws. (c) NONWAIVER AND EXPENSES. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder's rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder. (d) NOTICES. Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement. (e) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant or purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. (f) REMEDIES. Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate. (g) SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all D-13 Holders from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by any such Holder or holder of Warrant Shares. (h) AMENDMENT. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder. (i) SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant. (j) HEADINGS. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant. ******************** D-14 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be executed by its officer thereunto duly authorized.
