FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, SSA GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a
Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), HEREBY PROMISES TO PAY to the
order of GAP Coinvestment Partners II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
(the “Lender”), the principal amount of One Million Seven Hundred
Seventy Three Thousand One Hundred Eighty Two and 23/100 Dollars
($1,773,182.23) plus interest on any and all principal amounts remaining unpaid
hereunder from time to time outstanding from the date hereof until such
principal amount becomes due, at an interest rate per annum equal to 1.23%, all
of which shall be due and payable on November 15, 2005.


 


On July 18, 2003, the Borrower made identical promissory notes
(including the Original Note) (as defined below) (all of such notes, the “Original
Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $130,077,173.41 to Madeleine,
L.L.C., General Atlantic Partners 76, L.P., GAP Coinvestment Partners II, L.P.,
GapStar, LLC and GAPCO GmbH & Co. KG. 
On October 15, 2003, Borrower amended and restated each of the
Original Notes (all of such Original Notes, including this promissory note,
each as amended and restated on October 15, 2003, the “First Amended
and Restated Notes”).  On the date
hereof, Borrower amended and restated each of the First Amended and Restated
Notes (all of such First Amended and Restated Notes, as amended and restated on
the date hereof, the “Second Amended and Restated Notes”).


 


If any amount payable hereunder shall be due on a day on which banks
are required or authorized to close in New York City (any other day being a “Business
Day”), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and
such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of
interest payable hereon.


 


All interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days for
the actual number of days elapsed. 
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Second Amended and Restated
Promissory Note, interest paid or becoming due hereunder shall in no event
exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.  Both principal and interest are payable in
lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds at the
offices of the Lender, at 450 Park Avenue, New York, New York  10022, or at such other place as the Lender
shall designate in writing to the Borrower.


 


The Borrower may, at its option, prepay this Second Amended and
Restated Promissory Note, in whole at any time or in part from time to time,
without penalty or premium, each such prepayment to be accompanied by the
payment of accrued interest to the date of each prepayment on the amount
prepaid.  Notwithstanding the foregoing
or anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower may not prepay the
other Second Amended and Restated


 
















 


Promissory Notes, in whole or in part, unless
it simultaneously prepays the same pro rata portion of this Second Amended and
Restated Promissory Note.


 


The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Second
Amended and Restated Promissory Note have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate action of the Borrower, do not contravene the terms of its
certificate of incorporation or by-laws, as the same may have been amended, and
do not violate, conflict with or result in any breach of, or the creation of
any lien under, any contractual obligation of, or law or regulation applicable
to, the Borrower.


 


The Borrower agrees that all notices or other communications provided
for hereunder shall be in writing (including telecommunications) and shall be
mailed, telecopied, or delivered to the Borrower at the address of the Borrower
set forth next to its signature, or at such other address as may hereafter be
specified by the Borrower to the Lender (at its address set forth herein) in
writing.  All notices and communications
shall be effective (i) if mailed, when received or three days after mailing,
whichever is earlier, (ii) if telecopied, when transmitted, and (iii) if
delivered, upon delivery.


 


No failure on the part of the Lender to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof by the Lender
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, power, privilege or remedy of the Lender.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of
this Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note or any of the other Second
Amended and Restated Notes, nor consent to any departure by the Borrower
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by the Lender, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.


 


Any provision hereof which is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent
of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision
in any other jurisdiction.


 


The Borrower acknowledges that this Second Amended and Restated
Promissory Note may be transferred and assigned, and that (i) such transfer and
assignment shall in no way affect the Borrower’s obligations under this Second
Amended and Restated Promissory Note, which will remain in full force and
effect, and (ii) any such transferee or assignee shall not be subject to (and
the Borrower hereby expressly waives as against any such transferee, assignee
or holder of this Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note) any defenses,
set-offs, counterclaims or other objections to the payment of this Second
Amended and Restated Promissory Note.


 


The Borrower agrees to pay all costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, incurred by the Lender in enforcing payment hereof or of its other rights
hereunder and in respect hereof, and hereby waives, to the full extent
permitted by applicable law, all rights to plead any statute of limitations as
a defense to any action hereunder.


 


2
















 


The Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, protest and notice of
any kind in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or
enforcement of this Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note.  The Borrower hereby waives any right of
setoff, offset, counterclaim or abatement with respect to, and any other
defense or similar right with respect to, payment of its obligations under this
Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note.


 


This Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note amends and restates in
its entirety the Promissory Note, dated July 18, 2003, made by the
Borrower to the order of the Lender (the “Original Note”), as amended
and restated on October 15, 2003 (the “Existing Note”).  This Second Amended and Restated Promissory
Note shall not in any way constitute (i) an extinguishment of the indebtedness
of the Borrower under the Existing Note, (ii) a release of the Borrower from
such obligations, or (iii) a novation of the Existing Note.


 


3
















 


The Borrower hereby (i) irrevocably submits
to the jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court sitting in New York
City in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Second
Amended and Restated Promissory Note, (ii) waives any defense based on doctrines
of venue or forum  non  conveniens, or similar rules or
doctrines, and (iii) irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such an
action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or
Federal court.  The Borrower (by its
acceptance hereof) hereby waives any right to trial by jury in any action,
proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Second Amended
and Restated Promissory Note.


 


This Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
