insurance. All employee benefit plans and programs of the Corporation shall
continue during the Resignation Notice Period and Period, as respectively
defined in Subsection 4.1(e) and 4.2 hereof, save and except short term and long

undertaking of the Corporation. In the event the Employee's employment is

d.    by the Employee for any reason, within eighteen months of a Change of
Control, in which case the Employee shall, subject to the provisions of
Subsections 4.2 and 4.3, be provided with payment of the amount(s) set forth in
Subsection 4.2 hereof; or

e.    by the Employee for any reason, upon providing four (4) weeks written
notice to the Corporation (the "Resignation Notice Period"), provided that the
Corporation may require the immediate resignation from employment of the
Employee any time after receiving the Employee's notice of termination but prior
to the expiration of the Resignation Notice Period and the Corporation's sole
obligation in those circumstances shall be to pay the Employee the greater of
(a) the Employee's remuneration to the end of the Resignation Notice Period,
less an amount equal to any remuneration received by the Employee in respect of
services provided by the Employee during the Resignation Notice Period to any
other Person that has employed or engaged, directly or indirectly, the Employee;
and (b) zero.

4.2   Severance Entitlement. If the employment of the Employee is terminated in
accordance with Subsections 4.1(c) or 4.1(d) hereof, the Employee will receive
payment of the equivalent of twelve months of the Employee's Base Salary (the

to twelve months following termination (the "Period") provided that if the
Employee obtains other paid employment or consulting work during the Period and
is in compliance with section 6.1 and the provisions of the Non-Disclosure,
Non-Solicitation and Developments Undertaking, the Corporation shall thereafter
only be required to pay the Employee a lump sum payment equivalent to 50% of the
remaining unpaid portion of the aggregate Payment Amount, less all applicable
statutory deductions.

4.3   Release of Claims. The Corporation's obligation to provide any of the
payment amounts hereunder shall be subject to, and conditioned upon, Employee's
execution of a full release of claims (other than claims for payments to be made
pursuant to this Agreement) reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation and
consistent with the release of claims which the Corporation has executed by
employees of similar seniority, releasing the Corporation and its employees and
agents from any claims arising from or related to Employee's employment or
severance from employment with the Corporation, including

                                       6
<PAGE>

any claims arising from this Agreement. Moreover, if the Employee breaches his
obligations under this Agreement or the Employee Non-Disclosure,
Non-Solicitation and Developments Undertaking, the Corporation may immediately
cease payment of all severance described in this Agreement. The cessation of
these payments shall be in addition to, and not as an alternative to, any other
remedies at law or in equity available to the Corporation, including the right
to seek specific performance or an injunction.

4.4   Reasonableness. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that if the
payment or payments referred to in Subsection 4.1 (c) or 4.1(d) and Section 4.2
hereof are made, such payment or payments constitutes a reasonable estimate of
the damages that might be suffered by the Employee for termination of this
Agreement, such amount being liquidated damages and not a penalty.

this Agreement, the Employee shall execute, prior to execution hereof by the
Corporation, the Corporation's Employee Non-Disclosure, Non-Solicitation and
Developments Undertaking attached hereto as Exhibit A, the terms of which are
incorporated herein by reference. As set forth herein, the terms of the Employee
Non-Disclosure, Non-Solicitation and Developments Undertaking survive the
termination of the Employee's employment and the termination of this Agreement,
regardless of the reason for such termination.

                           ARTICLE 6 - NON-COMPETITION
                           ---------------------------

business or activity with any entity which Competes with the Descartes Group in
the Territory.

irreparable harm in the event of a breach of this Section and that monetary

                                    Exhibit A
                                    ---------

                EMPLOYEE NON-DISCLOSURE, DEVELOPMENTS UNDERTAKING

TO:      The Descartes Systems Group Inc. and its subsidiaries, affiliates and
         related entities (collectively, "Descartes")

In consideration of my continued employment, the grant to me of stock options by
Descartes, the promises and the mutual covenants contained in my Employment
Agreement dated May 17, 2005 and the sum of $1.00 now paid by Descartes to me, I
hereby agree and undertake as follows:

                      ARTICLE 1 - CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

1.1      I agree to keep confidential at all times, whether during, or after the
         termination of, my employment, and, except for disclosure permitted by
         section 1.2, not to disclose, directly or indirectly, or assist others
         in so disclosing, to any person, firm, corporation or other entity any
         Confidential Information. The term "Confidential Information" means any
         information concerning the organization, business or finances of
         Descartes or of any third party which Descartes is under an obligation
         to keep confidential that is maintained by Descartes as confidential.
         Such Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to, trade
         secrets or confidential information respecting inventions, products,
         data, algorithms, designs, methods, know-how, techniques, systems,
         processes, software programs, works of authorship, customer lists,
         projects, plans and proposals and any notes, memoranda, reports, lists,
         records, drawings, sketches, specifications, software programs, data,
         documentation or other materials of any nature and in any form, whether
         written, printed, or in digital format or otherwise, relating to any
         matter within the scope of the business of Descartes or concerning any
         of its dealings or affairs.

1.2      I agree to use the Confidential Information in the course of employment
         solely for the benefit of Descartes and disclose the Confidential
         Information only to such other Descartes employees who have a need to
         know the Confidential Information. I shall not use any Confidential
         Information in any manner which may injure or cause loss or may be
         calculated to injure or cause loss, whether directly or indirectly, to
         Descartes. I hereby represent and warrant that I am not subject to any
         other non-disclosure or confidentiality agreement. I acknowledge and
         agree that, with respect to all Confidential Information, I am in a
         position of trust and subject to a fiduciary duty to use the
         Confidential Information only in the interests of Descartes.

1.3      The foregoing obligations do not apply to the extent that the
         Confidential Information is or becomes generally available to the
         public through no fault on my part. I am not prohibited from disclosing
         Confidential Information if directly ordered to do so by a court or
         governmental agency; however, I agree that before doing so, I will give
         prompt notice to Descartes of any possible order or any legal or
         governmental proceeding that may result in such an order and will not
         disclose any Confidential Information until Descartes has been given a
         reasonable opportunity to prevent or limit such disclosure.

1.4      I agree that, if requested to do so by Descartes and, in any event,
         immediately upon the termination of my employment, I shall deliver all
         Confidential Information in my possession, care or control to
         Descartes.

1.5      While employed by Descartes, I represent that I will not use any
         Confidential Information (as is defined herein) of any prior employer.
         By executing this Agreement, I indicate my understanding that any
         Confidential Information of any prior employer is not necessary to my
         employment by Descartes.

<PAGE>

         Moreover, I acknowledge that Descartes is directing me not to rely on
         such Confidential Information in the course of my employment, not to
         disclose such Confidential Information to Descartes, and not to
         otherwise use such Confidential Information of any prior employer.

                        ARTICLE 2 - EMPLOYEE DEVELOPMENTS

2.1      All Works conceived, created, invented, produced, designed or reduced
         to practice by me, alone or with others, at any time or times during
         the term of my employment with Descartes shall be owned by Descartes. I
         shall communicate to Descartes, without cost or delay, and without
         disclosing to others the same, all available information relating
         thereto (with all necessary documentation, code, specifications, plans
         and models).

2.2      I represent that the Works identified in the Appendix attached hereto,
         if any, comprise all the Works that I have made or conceived prior to
         my employment by Descartes, which Works are excluded from this
         Agreement. I understand that it is only necessary to list the title of
         such Works and the purpose thereof but not details of the Work itself.
         IF THERE ARE ANY SUCH WORKS TO BE EXCLUDED, THE UNDERSIGNED SHOULD
         INITIAL HERE; OTHERWISE IT WILL BE DEEMED THAT THERE ARE NO SUCH
         EXCLUSIONS. _____

2.3      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
         any provision of this Agreement which provides for me to assign or
         offer to assign any of my rights in a Work shall not apply to any
         invention developed entirely on my own time without using Descartes'
         equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secrets except for those
         inventions that (i) relate, at the time of conception or reduction to
         practice of the invention to Descartes' business or actual or
         demonstrably anticipated research or development or (ii) result from
         any work performed by me for Descartes.

2.4      The term "Works" includes, but is not limited to, inventions,
         modifications, discoveries, designs, developments, documentation,
         improvements, artistic works, designs, products, processes, techniques,
         know-how, details of ideas, concepts, business opportunities,
         compilations of data, confidential reports, algorithms, formulas,
         computer codes in either source code and object code, computer or
         software programs, works of authorship, trade secrets, enhancements
         and/or modifications to any computer or software codes or computer or
         software programs or any intellectual property rights whatsoever or any
         interest therein (whether or not patentable or registerable under
         copyright, trade-mark or similar legislation or subject to analogous
         protection).

2.5      I agree to not knowingly incorporate into the Works of Descartes any
         virus or other harmful code or any Works of any other person, firm,
         corporation or other entity.

2.6      I agree that I will not bring onto the premises of Descartes any
         unpublished document or any property belonging to my former employers
         or companies.

                    ARTICLE 3 - ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS TO WORKS

3.1      In addition to the right of Descartes as owner of the Works, in the
         event that any interest in the Works vests in me, I hereby assign to
         Descartes all of the right, title and interest I have or may acquire in
         any Works without further compensation including, without limitation,
         rights to any copyright (including, without limitation, all
         reversionary interests and rights or renewal in and to

CONFIDENTIAL, PROPRIETARY AND COPYRIGHT 2004 OF THE DESCARTES SYSTEMS GROUP INC.
<PAGE>

         the copyright to the Works, the right to create derivative works which
         modify or alter the Works), patent and design rights (including,
         without limitation, the right to file patent applications and to claim
         a right of priority under applicable international conventions)
         trade-marks and other intellectual property rights.

3.2      I hereby waive and agree to waive my moral rights to the Works which
         are acknowledged to include the right to the integrity of the Works and
         the right, where reasonable in the circumstances, to be associated with
         the Works as an author by name or under a pseudonym and the right to
         remain anonymous when any translation of the Works is produced,
         performed or published.

                          ARTICLE 4 - NON-SOLICITATION

4.1      During my employment by Descartes, and for a period of [TEXT REDACTED]
         thereafter (the "Applicable Period"), I shall not myself nor on behalf
         of or in connection with any other person, firm, corporation or other
         entity, directly or indirectly, in any capacity whatsoever including,
         without limitation, as an employer, employee, director, principal,
         agent, joint venturer, partner, shareholder or other equity holder,
         independent contractor, licensor, licensee, franchiser, franchisee,
         distributor, consultant, supplier, cooperative, partnership, trust,
         entity with juridical personality, unincorporated association or
         otherwise:

         a)       canvass or solicit or accept any business from any customer or
                  Prospective Customer of Descartes (the term "Prospective
                  Customer" means any person or entity canvassed or solicited by
                  Descartes at any time up to the date upon which I cease to be
                  employed by Descartes) for the purpose of providing to such
                  customer or Prospective Customer products or services
                  competitive or similar to those from time to time being
                  designed, developed, licensed, marketed or sold by Descartes;

         b)       employ, offer employment to or solicit the employment or
                  engagement of or otherwise entice away from the employment of
                  Descartes any individual who is employed by Descartes or who
                  resigns from employment by Descartes in order to accept an
                  offer of employment from me;

         c)       procure or assist any person or entity to employ, offer
                  employment to or solicit the employment or engagement of or
                  otherwise entice away from the employment of Descartes any
                  individual who is employed by Descartes or who resigns from
                  employment by Descartes in order to accept an offer of
                  employment from any such person or entity; or

         d)       interfere or attempt to interfere with Descartes' business or
                  persuade or attempt to persuade any customer, Prospective
                  Customer, employee or supplier of Descartes to discontinue or
                  alter such person's relationship with Descartes.

         4.2 Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit me from holding for
investment purposes only up to 1% of the issued publicly-traded shares of a
corporation engaged in a business the same as or similar to the business
presently carried on by Descartes.

                             ARTICLE 5 - INJUNCTION

5.1      I understand and agree that Descartes will suffer irreparable harm if I
         breach any of my obligations under this Agreement and that monetary
         compensation will be inadequate to compensate Descartes for such
         breach. I also acknowledge that my obligations set forth in Article 4
         above are not unduly burdensome and will not cause me any irreparable
         harm. I therefore agree that, in the event of a breach or threatened
         breach of this Agreement or any of its provisions by me, Descartes is
         entitled, in addition to any of the other rights, remedies or damages
         available to Descartes, to a temporary restraining order, a preliminary
         injunction and a permanent injunction in order to prevent or to
         restrain any breach by me or any of my partners, co-venturers,
         employers, employees, agents, representatives or any other persons
         directly or indirectly acting for me.

                          ARTICLE 6 - FURTHER DOCUMENTS

6.1      I will, both during and after my employment period, at the request of
         and cost to Descartes, sign execute, make and do all deeds, documents,
         acts and things as Descartes and its authorized agents may reasonably
         require:

a)       to apply for, obtain, register and vest in Descartes' name alone,
         letters patent, copyrights, trademarks or other analogous protection in
         any country throughout the world with respect to the Works and, when so
         obtained or vested, to renew and restore the same; and

b)       to defend any judicial opposition or proceedings in respect of such
         applications (including but not limited to petitions or applications
         for revocation of letters patent, copyright, trademark or other
         analogous protection).

6.2      In the event that I am unable or unwilling to execute any document as
         reasonably required to protect the Works and to file copyright, patent,
         trademark and/or design applications, I hereby irrevocably appoint the
         Chief Executive Officer of Descartes as my attorney to execute such
         documents on my behalf.

                               ARTICLE 7 - GENERAL

7.1      My obligations under this Agreement shall survive the termination of my
         employment regardless of the manner of such termination and shall be
         binding upon my heirs, executors, administrators and legal
         representatives.

7.2      I understand that this Agreement does not create an obligation of
         Descartes or any other person or entity to continue my employment.
         Descartes shall have the right to assign this Agreement to its
         successors and assigns, and all covenants and agreements hereunder
         shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by said successors or
         assigns.

7.3      I hereby represent and warrant that I am not a party to or bound by the
         terms of any agreement with any previous employer or any other party
         that would prevent me from performing services for Descartes.

7.4      I consent to the use of my name, picture, signature, voice, image
         and/or likeness by Descartes during my employment by Descartes;
         provided that following my employment, Descartes shall continue to be
         entitled to use material that was published before the date of my
         termination and that uses my name, picture, signature, voice, image
         and/or likeness, but only for a commercially

CONFIDENTIAL, PROPRIETARY AND COPYRIGHT 2004 OF THE DESCARTES SYSTEMS GROUP INC.
<PAGE>

         reasonable period of time to allow Descartes to replace such materials.
         Further, I waive all claims I may now have or may ever have against
         Descartes and its officers, directors, employees and agents arising out
         of Descartes' use, adaptation, reproduction, modification,
         distribution, exhibition or other commercial exploitation of my name,
         picture, signature, voice, image and/or likeness, including, but not
         limited to right of privacy, right of publicity and celebrity, use of
         voice, name or likeness, defamation, and copyright infringement.

7.5      I agree that at all times during and after my employment with
         Descartes, regardless of the reason for my termination, I shall not
         disparage Descartes, its products, services, agents or employees.

7.6      I hereby agree that each provision herein shall be treated as a
         separate and independent clause, and the unenforceability of any one
         clause shall in no way impair the enforceability of any of the other
         clauses herein. Moreover, if one or more of the provisions contained in
         this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as
         to scope, activity, subject or otherwise so as to be unenforceable at
         law, such provision or provisions shall be construed by the appropriate
         judicial body by limiting or reducing it or them, so as to be
         enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with the applicable law as
         it shall then appear.

7.7      My obligations under this Agreement are in addition to and not in
         substitution for: (i) any fiduciary duty I may owe to Descartes; and
         (ii) all protections afforded to the Confidential Information at law
         and in equity.

7.8      This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Descartes and
         me pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior or
         contemporaneous agreements, whether oral or written, relating to the
         subject matter hereof, including any provisions relating to the subject
         matter hereof contained in any employment agreement between Descartes
         and me. This Agreement shall apply notwithstanding any change in my
         employment or employer within Descartes.

7.9      Descartes may waive any breach by me of any provision of this Agreement
         expressly in writing in its sole discretion. Any waiver by Descartes of
         a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be
         construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of such provision or any
         other provision hereof.

7.10     I have carefully read and considered the provisions of this Agreement
         and, having done so, I agree that the restrictions set forth in this
         Agreement are fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the
         protection of the interests of Descartes and its business, officers,
         directors and employees. I further agree that the restrictions set
         forth in this Agreement shall not impair my ability to secure
         employment within the field or fields of my choice including, without
         limitation, those areas in which I am now, am to be or have been
         employed by Descartes.

7.11     I agree and acknowledge that during the Applicable Period, I shall
         inform each prospective new employer I may have, prior to accepting
         employment, of the existence of this Agreement (and the Non-Competition
         provision of my Employment Agreement). I also agree and acknowledge
         that Descartes has the right to independently contact any potential or
         actual future employer of mine to notify the future employer of my
         obligations under these Agreements and provide such future employer
         with a copy of these Agreements. Descartes shall also be entitled to
         notify such actual or potential future employer of Descartes'
         understanding of the requirements of these Agreements and what steps,
         if any, it intends to take to insure compliance with or enforcement of
         these Agreements.
