EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

          This Executive Employment Agreement (“Agreement”) is made effective as
of May 28, 2013 (“Effective Date”), by and between Daegis, Inc. (the “Company”)
and Susan K. Conner (the “Executive”).

          The Parties hereby agree as follows:

     1. Employment. Company hereby employs Executive, and Executive hereby
accepts such employment, upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.
Employment has commenced as of the Effective Date and shall end upon the date of
the Executive’s termination of employment (such period, the “Employment Term”)
on the terms and subject to the conditions as set forth in this Agreement.

     2. Duties.

          a. Position. Executive is employed as Chief Financial Officer,
reporting to the Chief Executive Officer, and shall have the duties and
responsibilities assigned by the Company and its Board of Directors both upon
initial hire and as may be assigned from time to time. Executive shall perform
faithfully and diligently all duties assigned to Executive. As Chief Financial
Officer, the Executive shall serve as the chief financial executive for the
Company, as defined by the applicable securities laws. The Position will require
significant travel, but the Executive will also be allowed to work remotely,
traveling as may be required by the Chief Executive Officer to the Company’s
various offices and to other locations as required by the business.

          b. Best Efforts/Full-Time. Executive will expend Executive’s best
efforts on behalf of the Company, and will abide by all policies and decisions
made by the Company, as well as applicable federal, state and local laws,
regulations or ordinances, including in particular those laws applicable to the
Company as a publicly-traded company. Executive will act in the best interest of
the Company at all times. During the Employment Term, excluding periods of
vacation and sick leave to which the Executive is entitled, the Executive agrees
to devote reasonable attention and time during usual business hours to the
business and affairs of the Company to the extent necessary to discharge the
responsibilities assigned to the Executive hereunder. The Executive may (1)
serve on corporate, civil or charitable boards or committees, (2) manage
personal investments and (3) deliver lectures and teach at educational
institutions, so long as such activities do not constitute a conflict of
interest, create issues of independence, or interfere with the performance of
the Executive’s responsibilities hereunder, as determined by the Company. It is
expressly understood and agreed that to the extent any such activities have been
conducted by the Executive prior to the Effective Date and have been disclosed
by the Executive to the CEO, the continued conduct of such activities (or the
conduct of activities similar in nature and scope thereto) subsequent to the
Effective Date shall not thereafter be deemed to interfere with the performance
of the Executive’s responsibilities to the Company.

Company is not for any specified period and may be terminated at any time, with

under various provisions of this Agreement, by either the Executive or the
Company. In addition, the Company reserves the right to modify Executive’s
position or duties to meet business needs and to use discretion in deciding on
appropriate disciplinary actions; however, it is understood that at no time will
the modification of the Executive’s position or duties include a diminished
responsibility or authority customarily performed, undertaken and exercised by
persons situated in a similar executive capacity. No representative of the
Company, other than the Chief Executive Officer, has the authority to alter the
At-Will relationship and nothing in this Agreement is intended to or should be
construed to contradict, modify or alter this At-Will relationship.

     4. Compensation.

          a. Base Salary. As compensation for Executive’s performance of
Executives duties hereunder, the Company shall pay to Executive an initial Base
Salary of $270,000.00 per year, as may be increased from time to time. Such Base

executives.

approval, Executive will be granted an initial incentive stock option to
purchase 150,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock under the Company’s 2010

such vesting is accelerated pursuant to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. The remaining 75% shall vest and become exercisable monthly
thereafter over a three year period in 36 equal periods, unless such vesting is

Executive, on the first anniversary date of Executive’s employment with the
Company, will receive an additional incentive stock option (“First Anniversary
Stock Option”) to purchase 0.5% of the Company’s then-outstanding Common Stock

on the Date of Grant. The Options granted under the First Anniversary Stock
Option grant will likewise vest at 25% on the first anniversary date of the

     6. Termination of Executive’s Employment.

          a. Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following
definitions apply:

               i. Notice of Termination. For purposes of this Agreement, a
“Notice of Termination” shall mean a written notice which indicates the specific
termination provision in this Agreement, if any, relied upon, and shall set
forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a
basis for termination of the Executive’s employment under the provision so
indicated, if any, and the Termination Date. For purposes of this Agreement, no
purported termination of employment shall be effective without such Notice of
Termination.

               ii. Termination Date. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Termination Date,” shall mean in the case of the Executive’s death, the date of
death, or in all other cases, the effective date of the Executive’s termination
of employment from all positions with the Company, as specified in the Notice of
Termination, subject to the following:

          1. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for
Cause, the date of the Notice of Termination; 
          2. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company due to
Disability, the date specified in the Notice of Termination shall be at least
thirty (30) days from the date the Notice of Termination is given to the
executive, except as otherwise noted in this section; and 
          3. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive for
Good Reason, the date specified in the Notice of Termination shall not be more
than thirty (30) days from the date the Notice of Termination is given to the
Company.

               iii. Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” is defined
as: (a) the Executive’s theft, dishonesty, or falsification of any Company
documents or records; (b) the Executive’s improper use or disclosure of the
Company’s confidential or proprietary information; (c) any action, disruptive
conduct or employment-related misconduct by the Executive which has a
detrimental effect on the Company’s reputation or business, including, without
limitation, conduct by the Executive which is intended to adversely affect
overall employee morale; (d) the Executive’s failure or inability to perform any
reasonable assigned duties after written notice from the Company of, and a
reasonable opportunity to cure, such failure or inability; (e) any material
breach by the Executive of any employment agreement between the Executive and
the Company, which breach is not cured pursuant to the terms of such agreement;
or (f) the Executive’s conviction (including any plea of guilty or nolo

his or her duties with the Company.

               iv. Disability. The Company may terminate the Executive’s
employment upon Executive’s Disability. For purposes of this Agreement,
Disability means a physical or mental infirmity which impairs the Executive’s
ability to substantially perform Executive’s duties under this Agreement which
continues for a period of at least ninety (90) consecutive days and which is
determined to be total and permanent by a physician selected by the Company or
its insurers and reasonably acceptable to the Executive or the Executive’s legal
representative. The Executive shall be entitled to the compensation and benefits
provided for under this Agreement for any period of time during the Employment
Term and prior to the Termination Date resulting from the Executive being unable
to work due to a physical or mental infirmity and as otherwise provided in this
Agreement in connection with the Disability; provided, however, that the receipt
of disability insurance payments or benefits will not result in a duplication of
any other compensation or benefits otherwise provided for under this Agreement
during any such period. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to
the contrary, until the Termination Date specified in the Notice of Termination
relating to the Executive’s Disability, in the event the Executive is no longer
under a Disability, the Executive will be entitled to return to the Executive’s
position on a regular basis with the Company as set forth in this Agreement, in
which event no termination by reason of the Disability will be deemed to have
occurred.

employment for “Good Reason” within thirty (30) days following the occurrence of
one or more of the events or conditions as described in this section, to which
the Executive has not consented, by submitting a resignation in writing from all
positions Executive then holds wit the Company. For purpose of this Agreement, a
resignation for “Good Reason” is defined as:

          1. Any material diminution of Executive’s duties or responsibilities,
unless otherwise agreed to by the Executive; Executive must provide the Company
with written notice of Executive’s objection to the change in duties or
responsibilities, which is not cured, to the extent susceptible to cure, within
ten (10) days after notice, or the Executive will be deemed to have agreed to
the changes; 
          2. Any material breach by the Company of any provision of this
Agreement; provided however, the Executive shall first notify the Company in
writing stating with reasonable specificity the breach by the Company and the
Executive shall only have Good Reason to terminate Executive’s employment if the
Company fails to commence action reasonably necessary to cure such breach within
ten (10) days following the date of the Company’s receipt of the Executive’s
written notice thereof; 
          3. The failure by the Company to obtain an agreement, reasonably

the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the “Exchange Act”), other

employee benefit plan of the Company, becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined
in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of
the securities of the Company representing more than 50% of a) the outstanding
shares of common stock of the Company or b) the combined voting power of the
Company’s then-outstanding securities; or, 
          2. The sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the
Company’s assets (or any transaction having similar effect is consummated); or,

surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation;
or, 
          4. There occurs a sale to a “person” (as such term is defined in

          b. Severance if Termination Without Cause by Company or if Resignation

this Agreement At-Will, if the Company elects to terminate Executive’s
employment without “Cause” or Executive resigns for “Good Reason” (as defined
herein), Executive shall be eligible to receive the following Termination
Severance Benefits: 1) all accrued and unpaid Base Salary earned during the
Employment Term, 2) cash severance payments equivalent to nine (9) months of the

Executive is COBRA-eligible); and 5) any options under any Company stock option
plans shall become fully vested and exercisable as of the date of termination.
All other Company obligations to the Executive will be terminated and completely
extinguished. Provision of the Change in Control Severance Benefits is
contingent on a) the Executive’s continued compliance with all surviving
provisions of this Agreement and b) the Executive’s execution of a full general
release, releasing all claims, known and unknown, that Executive may have
against the Company, arising out of or in any way related to Executive’s

     7. No Conflict of Interest. During the term of Executive’s employment with
the Company and during any period the Executive is receiving payments from the
Company, Executive must not engage in any work, paid or unpaid, that creates an

include, but is not limited to, directly or indirectly competing with the
Company in any way, or acting as an officer, director, employee, consultant,
stockholder, volunteer, lender, or agent of any business enterprise of the same
nature as, or which is in direct competition with the business in which the
Company is now engaged or in which the Company becomes engaged during the term
of Executive’s employment with the Company, as determined by the Board of
Directors in its sole discretion. If the Board of Directors believes such a
conflict exists during the term of this Agreement, the Board of Directors may
ask the Executive to choose to discontinue the other work or resign from the
Company. If the Board of Directors believes such a conflict exists during any
period in which the Executive is receiving payments pursuant to this Agreement,
the Board of Directors may ask Executive to choose to discontinue the other work
or forfeit the remaining company payments. In addition, the Executive agrees not
to refer any client or potential client of the Company to competitors of the

receiving payments from the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

and abide by the Company’s applicable confidentiality, invention assignment,

covenants contained in sections 7 and 8 (collectively “Covenants”) would cause
irreparable injury to the Company, and agrees that in the event of any such
breach, the Company shall be entitled to seek temporary, preliminary and
permanent injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving actual damages or
posting any bond or surety.

     10. AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW,
EXECUTIVE AND COMPANY AGREE TO ARBITRATE ANY CONTROVERSY, CLAIM OR DISPUTE

EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND EXECUTIVE AND ANY DISPUTES UPON
TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO BREACH OF CONTRACT,
TORT, DISCRIMINATION, HARASSMENT, WRONGFUL TERMINATION, DEMOTION DISCIPLINE,
FAILURE TO ACCOMMODATE, FAMILY AND MEDICAL LEAVE, COMPENSATION OR BENEFITS
CLAIMS, CONSTITUTIONAL CLAIMS; AND ANY CLAIMS FOR VIOLATION OF ANY LOCAL, STATE
OR FEDERAL LAW, STATUTE, REGULATION, OR ORDINANCE OR COMMON LAW. CLAIMS FOR
WORKERS’ COMPENSATION, UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE BENEFITS, BREACH OF THE COMPANY’S
EXECUTIVE INNOVATIONS AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS AGREEMENT AND OTHER CONFIDENTIALITY
AGREEMENTS, AND COMPANY’S RIGHT TO OBTAIN INJUNCTIVE RELIEF PURSUANT TO SECTION
9 ARE EXCLUDED. BY ACCEPTING EMPLOYMENT WITH THE COMPANY, THE EXECUTIVE WAIVES
THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUCH DISPUTES (EXCLUDING THOSE
AFOREMENTIONED). FOR THE PURPOSE OF THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, REFERENCES TO
THE COMPANY INCLUDE ALL PARENT, SUBSIDIARY, OR RELATED ENTITIES AND THEIR
EMPLOYEES, SUPERVISORS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AGENTS, PENSION OR BENEFIT PLAN
SPONSORS, FIDUCIARIES, ADMINISTRATORS, AFFILIATES, AND ALL SUCCESSORS AND
ASSIGNS OF ANY OF THEM, AND THIS AGREEMENT SHALL APPLY TO THEM TO THE EXTENT
EXECUTIVE’S CLAIMS ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO THEIR ACTIONS ON BEHALF OF THE
COMPANY.

          a. Consideration for Arbitration Agreement. The mutual promise by
Company and Executive to arbitrate any and all disputes between them (except for
those referenced above) rather than litigate them before the courts or other
bodies, provides the consideration for this agreement to arbitrate.

          b. Initiation of Arbitration. Either party may exercise the right to
arbitrate by providing the other party with written notice of any and all claims
forming the basis of such right in sufficient detail to inform the other party
of the substance of such claims. In no event shall the request for arbitration
be made after the date when institution of legal or equitable proceedings based
on such claims would be barred by the applicable statutes of limitation.

          c. Arbitration Procedure. The arbitration will be conducted in the
state and county in which the Company is headquartered by a single neutral
arbitrator and in accordance with the then-current rules for resolution of
employment disputes of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The parties
are entitled to representation by an attorney or other representative of their
choosing. The arbitrator shall have the power to enter any award that could be
entered by a judge of the trial court of the state in which the Company is
headquartered and shall follow the applicable law. The parties agree to abide by
and perform any award rendered by the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall issue the
award in writing and therein state the essential findings and conclusions on
which the award is based. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction thereof.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          d. Costs of Arbitration. Company shall bear the costs of the
arbitration filing fees; the hearing fees and cost of the arbitrator will be
initially borne by the Company, but the non-prevailing party, as determined by
the arbitrator, shall be responsible for the hearing fees and costs of the
arbitrator.

     11. General Provisions.

          a. Successors and Assigns. The rights and obligations of the Company
under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the
successors and assigns of the Company and the Company shall require any
successor or assign to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in
the same manner the Company would be required to perform if no such succession
or assign had occurred. Executive shall not be entitled to assign any of
Executive’s rights or obligations under this Agreement.

          b. Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”).
This Letter Agreement is intended to meet the requirements of Section 409A of
the Code, and will be interpreted and construed consistent with that intent. For
purposes of this Agreement, the terms “terminate,” “terminated” and
“termination” mean a termination of Executive’s employment that constitutes a
“separation from service” within the meaning of the default rules of Section
409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Letter Agreement,
to the extent that the right to any payment (including the provision of
benefits) hereunder provides for the “deferral of compensation” within the
meaning of Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code, the payment will be paid (or
provided) in accordance with the following:

               i. If Executive is a “Specified Employee” within the meaning of
Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code on the date of your termination of
employment, then no such payment shall be made or commence during the period
beginning on the date of termination and ending on the date that is six (6)
months following the date of termination or, if earlier, on the date of
Executive’s death. The amount of any payment that would otherwise be paid to
Executive during this period will instead be paid on the fifteenth (15th) day of
the first calendar month following the end of the period.
               ii. Payments with respect to reimbursements of expenses,
relocation expenses or legal fees shall be made on or before the last day of the
calendar year following the calendar year in which the relevant expense is
incurred. The amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar
year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other
calendar year.

          c. Excise Tax Payments. In the event of a determination that a portion
of any payment or benefit to the Executive or for Executive’s benefit payable or
distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on account of or in
connection with a Change in Control event is or will be deemed to be an “excess
parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Company shall pay to the Executive an
amount (the “Tax Gross-Up”) sufficient to reimburse the Executive on an
after-tax basis for any excise tax imposed, pursuant to Code Section 4999 or any
successor provision or similar tax (“Excise Tax”), on the Executive with respect
to such payments or other benefits, so that the Executive does not incur any
out-of-pocket cost with respect to such Excise Tax. For this purpose, the
Executive shall be deemed to be in the highest marginal rate of federal and
state taxes. The Tax Gross-Up payment shall be made at the time the Excise Tax
triggering the right to such payment is remitted to the appropriate tax
authorities but no later than the close of the calendar year following the
calendar year in which such Excise Tax is remitted to the appropriate tax
authorities. As a condition of the Company’s payment of the Tax Gross-Up, the
Executive agrees to cooperate with the Company to furnish such information and
documents as the Company or its agents may reasonably request in order to make a
determination as to the amount of the Parachute Tax. Any such calculations shall
be provided to the Executive for review, as well.

          d. Waiver. Either party’s failure to enforce any provision of this
Agreement shall not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision,
or prevent that party thereafter from enforcing each and every other provision
of this Agreement.

          e. Attorneys’ Fees. If any arbitration or other proceeding is
instituted to enforce or interpret this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover from the losing party in addition to statutory costs, the
reasonable attorneys’ fees the prevailing party incurred in connection with such
arbitration or proceeding.

          f. Severability. In the event any provision of this Agreement is found
to be unenforceable by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, such
provision shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to allow
enforceability of the provision as so limited, it being intended that the
parties shall receive the benefit contemplated herein to the fullest extent
permitted by law. If a deemed modification is not satisfactory in the judgment
of an arbitrator or court, the unenforceable provision shall be deemed deleted,
and the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be
affected thereby.

          g. Interpretation; Construction. The headings set forth in this
Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be used in interpreting this
Agreement. This Agreement has been drafted by legal counsel representing the
Company, but Executive has participated in the negotiation of its terms.
Furthermore, Executive acknowledges that Executive has had an opportunity to
review and revise the Agreement and to have it reviewed by legal counsel, if
desired, and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any
ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed
in the interpretation of this Agreement.

or federal courts in the state in which the Company is headquartered, if
applicable, in any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement.
