TERMINATION AND SEVERANCE

This
position is for no set period or term and just as you have the right to resign your position, at any time, for any reason, QRS reserves the right to terminate your employment, at any time, with
or without cause, with or without notice.

In
the event your employment is terminated without cause, you will become entitled to six (6) months of severance pay equal in the aggregate to your total annual target compensation and
benefits at the level in effect at the time of your termination. In addition, you shall be entitled to receive at the time of your termination the pro-rata amount (based upon the length of your
employment during the fiscal year) of your annual incentive compensation calculated at 100% of your target incentive. Your severance payments will be made in accordance with the Company's standard
payroll practices for current employees and will be subject to the Company's collection of all applicable withholding taxes.

For
purposes of this agreement, termination "for cause" shall mean a termination of your employment for any of the following reasons: (1) your failure to substantially perform the material
duties of your position with the Company after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to you by the Company which specifically identifies the manner in which you have not
substantially performed those duties and which provides a reasonable period for you to cure those deficiencies; (2) a material breach by you of your obligations under any confidential or
proprietary information agreements with the Company or of any of your fiduciary obligations as an officer of the Company, (3) your failure to follow in a material respect the reasonable
policies or directives established on an employee-wide basis by the Company, after written notice to you indicating the policies or directives with which you are not in material compliance and which
provides a reasonable period for you to cure those deficiencies,
(4) any willful misconduct on your part having a material detrimental effect on the Company or (5) any unauthorized activity on your part which creates a material conflict of interest
between you and the Company after you have been provided with written notice of the unauthorized activity and a reasonable opportunity to refrain from that activity.

CHANGE OF CONTROL BENEFITS

A.    Should
there occur a Corporate Transaction or a Change in Control (as those terms are defined in the Company's 1993 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan) and either (i) your
employment is subsequently terminated without cause or (ii) you subsequently resign by reason of a material change in your base compensation, your targeted annual incentive compensation, your
annual total target compensation, or your benefits (for this purpose, 15% will be deemed a material reduction), a material reduction in your duties or responsibilities, or a change in your principal
place of employment by more than 35 miles, then you will be entitled to six (6) months of severance pay equal in the aggregate to your targeted total annual target compensation and
benefits at the level in effect at the time of your termination or resignation or (if greater) at the level in effect immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction or Change in Control. In addition,
you shall be entitled to receive at the time of your termination the pro-rata amount (based upon the length of your employment during the fiscal year) of your annual incentive compensation calculated
at 100% of your target incentive. Your severance payments will be made in accordance with the Company's standard payroll practices for current employees and will be subject to the Company's collection
of all applicable withholding taxes.

B.    Except
to the extent otherwise provided in paragraph C below, should a Corporate Transaction or Change in Control occur during your period of employment with the Company, then
(i) all of your outstanding options will, immediately prior to the specified effective date for the Corporate Transaction

---

or Change in Control, become exercisable for all the shares at the time subject to those options, whether or not those options are to be assumed or replaced with a cash incentive program, and those
accelerated options may be exercised for all or any portion of the option shares as fully vested shares; and (ii) all of your unvested shares of QRS stock will immediately vest at the time of
such Corporate Transaction or Change in Control.

C.    However,
the following limitation will be in effect for (i) all of your unvested shares of QRS stock and (ii) any unvested options which are to be assumed by the
successor entity (or parent company) or otherwise continued in effect or which are to be replaced with a cash incentive program which preserves the spread existing at the time of such Corporate
Transaction or Change in Control on any shares for which your options are not otherwise at that time exercisable (the excess of the fair market value of those shares over the exercise price):



D.    Any
of your options which are assumed by the successor entity (or parent company) in the Corporate Transaction or are otherwise continue in effect following the Change in Control
transaction shall be appropriately adjusted to apply and pertain to the number and class of securities which would have been issued to you in the consummation of such Corporate Transaction or Change
in Control had the options been exercised immediately prior to such event. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the option prices payable per share, provided the aggregate option prices
payable shall remain the same.

EMPLOYMENT AT WILL

Your
employment in the position of General Counsel will remain an Employment At Will. This means that your position is for no set period or term and just as you have the right to resign your position,
at any time, for any reason, QRS reserves the right to terminate your employment, at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice. If any contrary representation has been made to you,
this letter supersedes it. Neither subsequent agreement contrary to this nor any amendment to this term can be made unless it is in writing and signed by both of us and copied to the Chairman of the
Compensation Committee.

I
trust the above meets your approval. However, should you have any questions or concerns, you should not hesitate to contact either me. For our part we look forward, with tremendous enthusiasm, to
you joining QRS and our ongoing relationship.

Sincerely,

|/s/LIZ FETTERLiz Fetter

Garth SalonerChairman of the Compensation Committee

I
accept this ongoing position with QRS Corporation on these terms and conditions on the terms above and understand and agree that it supersedes any other agreement, written or oral, I may have with
QRS with respect to employment or compensation by QRS including salary, incentive, options, termination and severance.
