DAOU SYSTEMS, INC.
FILED IN THE OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE OF DELAWARE
ON JULY 23, 1999

(Pursuant
to Section 103(f))

Daou
Systems, Inc. (the "Corporation"), a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the Delaware General
Corporation Law ("DGCL"),

DOES
HEREBY CERTIFY THAT:

1.     The
present name of the Corporation is Daou Systems, Inc.

2.     A
Certificate of Designations (the "Certificate") was filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on July 23, 1999
and said Certificate is an inaccurate record of the corporate action therein referred to in that it incorrectly stated the name of the class of preferred stock as "Series A Preferred Stock"
instead of "Series A-1 Preferred Stock."

3.     The
Certificate is hereby corrected to read in its entirety as follows:

DAOU
Systems, Inc. (the "Corporation"), a corporation organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, certifies that pursuant to the authority contained in Article IV of its Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of
Incorporation") and in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Board of Directors of the Corporation
by resolution dated July 22, 1999 duly approved and adopted the following resolution which resolution remains in full force and effect on the date hereof:

RESOLVED,
that pursuant to the authority vested in the Board of Directors by its Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors does hereby designate, create, authorize and provide
for the issue of Series A-1 Preferred Stock (the "Series A-1 Preferred Stock"), par value $0.001 per share,
consisting of Three Million Five Hundred Twenty Thousand Two Hundred Fifty-Five (3,520,255) shares, having the following voting powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional
and other special rights, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof as follows:

1.Dividend Provisions.Subject to the rights of series of Preferred Stock which may from time to time come into
existence in compliance with the provisions ofSection 7and the other limitations set forth in thisSection 1,the holders of shares of the
Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends out of any assets legally available therefor, prior and in
preference to any declaration or payment of any dividend (other than a dividend payable solely in Common Stock or other securities and rights convertible into or entitling the holder thereof to
receive, directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock) on the Common Stock, at the rate (1) of six percent (6%) per annum based on the Series A-1 Issue Price (as
hereinafter defined inSubsection 2(a))per share of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock (appropriately adjusted for any stock
split, dividend, combination or other recapitalization) for the first two years after the date upon which any shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock were first issued (the
"Purchase Date" with respect to such series), plus (2) an additional one percent (1%) per annum based on the Series A-1 Issue
Price (appropriately adjusted for any stock split, dividend, combination or other recapitalization) for each successive year after the second anniversary of the Purchase Date, which shall accrue and
be payable (whether or not declared) semi-annually in shares of Series A-1 Preferred valued at such Series A-1 Issue Price (the
"PIK Dividend"). The PIK Dividend shall increase to a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum if a Registration Statement on Form S-3
(or other similar form) covering the continuous sale of the shares of Common Stock into

---



which
the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall have converted pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor thereto has not been declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") by the date that is 120 days after the Purchase Date (the "Shelf Registration
Deadline"). In such event, the PIK Dividend rate shall return to its prior rate (six percent (6%) as of the Purchase Date) after the date that the Registration Statement is
declared effective. Such dividends shall be subject to the rights of series of Preferred Stock which may from time to time come into existence in compliance with the provisions of Section 7,shall
be paid to the extent assets are legally available therefor and any amounts for which assets are not legally available shall be
paid promptly as assets become legally available therefor; any partial payment will be made pro rata among the holders of such shares. Unless full dividends on the Series A-1
Preferred Stock for the then current dividend period shall have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart, no dividend whatsoever (other than a dividend payable
solely in Common Stock or other securities and rights convertible into or entitling the holder thereof to receive, directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock) shall be paid or declared,
and no distribution shall be made, on any Common Stock. After full dividends on the Series A-1 Preferred Stock for the then current dividend period have been paid, the holders of
shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common Stock shall participate in any further dividends on a pro rata basis determined by the number of shares of
Common Stock held by each (assuming conversion of all such Series A-1 Preferred Stock). In the event that payment of PIK Dividends on any dividend payment date would cause the
Corporation to issue more than 19.9% of its outstanding shares of Common Stock at a price below the market price on the principal market on which its equity securities are traded
("Principal Market"), the dividends which otherwise would be payable as PIK Dividends shall become payable in cash.

2.Liquidation Preference.

Officer of the Corporation within 180 days following his termination as Chief Executive Officer by the Corporation, or (3) the failure of Georges J. Daou or Daniel J. Daou to vote their
shares of the Corporation in favor of a transaction described inSection 2(a)or(c),above, in
the event that the majority of the Board of Directors of the Corporation vote in favor of such transaction.

However,
the foregoing calculation shall not take into account shares deemed issued pursuant toSubsection 4(c)(i)(e)on account of
options, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities (or the actual or deemed consideration therefor), except to the extent (i) such options, rights or convertible or exchangeable
securities have been exercised, converted or exchanged or (ii) the consideration to be paid upon such exercise, conversion or exchange per share of underlying Common Stock is less than or equal
to the per share consideration for the Additional Stock which has given rise to the Conversion Price adjustment being calculated.

d.Other Distributions.In the event the Corporation shall declare a distribution payable in securities of other
persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by the Corporation or other persons, assets (excluding cash dividends) or options or rights not referred to in Subsection 4(c)(iii),then, in each such
case for the purpose of thisSubsection 4(d),the
holders of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of Common Stock
of the Corporation into which their shares of Series A-1

Preferred
Stock are convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock of the Corporation entitled to receive such distribution.

e.Recapitalizations.If at any time or from time to time there shall be a recapitalization of the Common Stock
(other than a subdivision, combination or merger or sale of assets transaction provided for elsewhere in thisSection 4or Section 5),provision
shall be made so that the holders of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall thereafter be entitled to
receive upon conversion of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company or otherwise, to which a holder of Common
Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such recapitalization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 4with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock after the recapitalization to the end
that the provisions of thisSection 4(including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares purchasable upon
conversion of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable.

f.No Impairment.The Corporation will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any
reorganization, recapitalization, 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 to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 4and
in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of the
Series A-1 Preferred Stock against impairment.

g.No Fractional Shares and Certificate as to Adjustments.



h.Notices of Record Date.In the event of any taking by the Corporation of a record of the holders of any class
of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or
otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, the Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series A-1
Preferred Stock, at least ten (10) days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution
or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.

i.Reservation of Stock Issuable upon Conversion.The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available
out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock such number of its
shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding

shares
of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all
then outstanding shares of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the holder of such Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take
such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such
purposes.

j.Notices.Any notice required by the provisions of thisSection 4to be given to the holders of shares of
Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be deemed given if deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and
addressed to each holder of record at his address appearing on the books of the Corporation.

shall have full voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers of the holders of Common Stock, and shall be entitled, notwithstanding any provision hereof, to notice of any
stockholders' meeting in accordance with the Bylaws of the Corporation, and shall be entitled to vote, together with holders of Common Stock, with respect to any question upon which holders of Common
Stock have the right to vote.

7.Protective Provisions.So long as fifty percent (50%) of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock
are outstanding, the Corporation shall not without first obtaining the approval (by vote or written consent, as provided by law) of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of
Series A-1 Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class:



8.Status of Converted or Redeemed Stock.In the event any shares of Series A-1 Preferred
Stock shall be redeemed or converted pursuant to Section 3 orSection 4,the shares so converted or redeemed shall be canceled and shall
not be issuable by the Corporation. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation shall be appropriately amended to effect the corresponding reduction in the Corporation's authorized capital
stock.
