                               KOGER EQUITY, INC.
                             1988 STOCK OPTION PLAN


      This  amendment  entered  into as of May 6,  1996,  amends a Stock  Option
Agreement  (the "Stock  Option  Agreement")  entered into as of , by and between
Koger  Equity,  Inc.  (referred  to herein  as the  "Company"  which  definition
sometimes includes its subsidiaries),  a Florida corporation, with its principal
offices at 3986 Boulevard  Center Drive,  Jacksonville,  Florida 32207, and (the
"Employee").

      WHEREAS,  the Company had heretofore entered into a Stock Option Agreement
with the Employee; and

      WHEREAS,  it has been determined to be in the best interest of the Company
and the Employee to amend the Stock Option Agreement;

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this
Amendment, the parties agree as follows:

      1.   Defined  terms in the  Stock  Option  Agreement  shall  have the same
           meaning in this Amendment.

      2.   The last  sentence  of  Section 2 of the Stock  Option  Agreement  is
           hereby deleted.

      3.   Section 3 to the Stock  Option  Agreement  is hereby  deleted  in its
           entirety and restated as follows:

           3.  HOW EXERCISABLE
               (a) The Employee  shall  exercise the Option by written notice to
     the  Company,  which  notice  shall  specify  the  number  of  shares to be
     purchased  and the date of  exercise  (the "Date of  Exercise")  which Date
     shall not be more than seven (7) days after the day of the  mailing of such
     notice.  On or before the Date of  Exercise,  a certified  check or, at the
     Employee's  election,  shares of the  Company's  Common  Stock,  previously
     acquired  at  least  six (6)  months  prior  to the  Date of  Exercise  and
     currently  owned by the  Employee,  equal in fair market  value to the full
     payment of the  Option  price for such  shares  shall be  delivered  to the
     Company at the office designated in this Agreement; and until such payment,
     the Employee  shall have no rights in the optioned  stock.  In the event of
     any failure to take and pay by cash or previously  acquired shares, for the
     number of shares  specified  in the notice of  election  on the date stated
     therein, the Option shall become inoperative and lapse as to such number of
     shares,  but shall continue with respect to any remaining shares subject to
     the Option as to which notice of exercise has not yet been made.

           (b) Within fifteen days after the Date of Exercise, the Company shall
     deliver,  or cause to be delivered,  to the Employee stock certificates for
     the number of shares with  respect to which the Option is being  exercised,
     if the Company has  received  the  certification  described in Section 9 of

      Company or at the offices of a transfer  agent  appointed  for transfer of
      the shares of the Company, as the Company shall determine. Shares shall be
      registered   in  the  name  of  the   Employee  or  his  or  her  personal
      representative,  as the case may be.  Neither an  Employee  nor his or her
      personal  representative  shall  have any of the  rights of a  shareholder
      until the shares are issued as herein provided.

           Anything herein to the contrary  notwithstanding,  if any laws or any
     regulation of the Securities  and Exchange  Commission or of any other body
     having  jurisdiction  shall require the Company or the Employee to take any
     action in  connection  with the shares  specified  in a notice of  election
     before such shares can be delivered to such Employee,  then the date stated
     therein for the delivery of the shares  shall be postponed  until the fifth
     business day next following the completion of such action.

      4.   The last  paragraph  of Section 4 of the Stock  Option  Agreement  is
           hereby deleted.

           amended by this Amendment shall remain in full force and effect.

     IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of
the date first above written.
