occupancy of, conduct of, business in, or sale of any merchandise from or on the
Demised Premises, whether or not the Lessor has consented to the same, causes
any increase in premiums for the insurance carried from time to time by the
Lessor with respect to the property in question, the Lessee shall pay any such
increase in premiums as additional rent within ten (10) days after bills for
such additional premiums are rendered by the Lessor. In determining whether
increased premiums are a result of the Lessee's use or occupancy of the Demised
Premises, or the sale of any article therein or therefrom, a schedule issued by
the organization setting the insurance rate on the property in question, showing
the various components of such rate, shall be conclusive evidence of the several
items and charges which make up such rate. The Lessee shall comply promptly with
all reasonable requirements of any underwriters association or of any insurer
now or hereafter in effect, pertaining to or affecting the Demised Premises.

      (q) Cancellation of Insurance. If any insurance policy upon the building
in question or any part thereof shall be cancelled or shall be threatened by the
insurer to be cancelled, or the coverage there under reduced in any way by the
insurer, by reason of the use and occupation of the Demised Premises or any part
thereof by the Lessee or by any assignee or sub-Lessee of the Lessee, or by
anyone permitted by the Lessee to be on the Demised Premises, and if the Lessee
fails to remedy the

<PAGE>
                                       13

condition giving rise to cancellation, threatened cancellation or reduction of
coverage within forty-eight (48) hours after notice thereof by the Lessor, the
Lessor may, at its option, either:

                  Demised Premises a notice in writing of its intention so to do
                  and thereupon the provisions of Article 6.01 shall apply, or

            (ii)  enter upon the Demised Premises and remedy the condition
                  giving rise to such cancellation, threatened cancellation or
                  reduction, and the Tenant shall forthwith pay the cost thereof
                  to the Lessor, which costs may be collected by the Lessor as
                  additional rent and the Lessor shall not be liable for any
                  damage or injury caused to any property of the Lessee or of
                  others located on the Demised Premises as a result of any such
                  re-entry or entry, as the case may be.

5.02 The Lessee may remove any fixtures, including fixtures the Lessee paid for,
security locks, cameras, alarms, security doors, and benches without having to
repair any damage caused by such removal and without having to replace the items

                                 October 1, 2003

Sagent Technology, Inc.
800 West El Camino Real Suite 300
Mountain View, California 94040
Attention:  Chief Executive Officer

Ladies and Gentlemen:

      Reference is made to the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 15,
2003, by and between Sagent Technology, Inc. ("Sagent") and Group 1 Software,
Inc. ("Group 1") (the "Agreement"). All capitalized terms used and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the Agreement.

      This letter agreement will confirm that the parties signing this letter
hereby agree to and acknowledge the following:

1.    As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, but in no event later
      than October 15, 2003, Sagent shall deliver to Group 1 all of the issued
      and outstanding capital stock of Sagent France, S.A. (the "France
      Subsidiary"). Sagent shall take all action necessary and appropriate at
      its own cost and expense, to ensure that the transfer of the capital stock
      of the France Subsidiary to Group 1 is effective and such transfer and
      operations of the France Subsidiary comply with all applicable laws,
      regulations and procedures, including, if applicable, (a) obtaining
      appropriate approvals of the board of directors and shareholders of the
      France Subsidiary for the transfer, closing of the yearly accounts of the
      France Subsidiary, and to carry on the activity of the France Subsidiary
      despite the loss of one half of its share capital, (b) filing of accounts
      of the France Subsidiary and other documents or instruments with the
      Commercial Court of Versailles, and (c) reinstating the France
      Subsidiary's net assets to at least one half of its share capital and/or
      taking such other actions as may be permitted to ensure that the France
      Subsidiary complies with applicable net asset requirements, as agreed to
      between Group 1 and Sagent.

2.    As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, but in no event later
      than October 10, 2003, Sagent shall deliver to Group 1 all of the issued
      and outstanding capital stock of Sagent Technology GmbH (the "Germany
      Subsidiary"). Sagent shall take all action necessary and appropriate at
      its own cost and expense, to ensure that the transfer of the capital stock
      of the German Subsidiary is effective and complies with all applicable
      laws, regulations and procedures, including obtaining the appropriate
      apostilles for the power of attorney and secretary's certificate of
      Sagent.

3.    Sagent agrees and covenants that, until such time as Sagent shall have
      transferred the capital stock of the German Subsidiary and the France
      Subsidiary to Group 1 (or, in the case of the France Subsidiary, until
      such time as Group 1 exercises its right to elect not to purchase the

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

      France Subsidiary (as described in paragraph 8 below)), except as
      otherwise consented to by Group 1 in writing, it shall cause each of the
      German Subsidiary and the France Subsidiary not to (i) declare or pay any
      dividend or other distribution in respect of its capital stock, (ii) enter
      into any contract or commitment, or (iii) sell, transfer or dispose of any
      of its assets or properties.

4.    As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, but in no event later
      than October 10, 2003, Sagent shall deliver to Group 1 the information
      with respect to each of the Acquired Subsidiaries as specified in Section
      6.1(n) of the Agreement, as of December 31, 2002.

5.    As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, but in no event later
      than October 10, 2003, Sagent shall deliver to Group 1 duly executed
      Transfer Tax Returns to be filed in each jurisdiction in which any parcel
      of Real Property is located; provided, however, that Sagent shall not be
      obligated to deliver Transfer Tax Returns to the extent such returns are
      not required by the applicable jurisdiction, as determined by Group 1.

6.    As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, but in no event later
      than October 15, 2003, Sagent shall execute and deliver such other
      instruments of transfer, conveyance, assignment and confirmation and take
      such other action as Group 1 may request as necessary or desirable in
      order to more effectively transfer, convey and assign to Group 1, the
      capital stock of each of the Acquired Subsidiaries and Sagent (Asia
      Pacific) Pte Ltd. (together with the Acquired Subsidiaries, the "Purchased
      Subsidiaries"), including, without limitation, delivery of original
      executed documents in and original share certificates of the Purchased
      Subsidiaries, and appropriate resolutions of the board of directors of the
      Purchased Subsidiaries approving such transfer. For the purposes of this
      paragraph 6, "Purchased Subsidiaries" shall not include the France
      Subsidiary to the extent Group 1 elects not to accept the transfer thereof
      pursuant to paragraph 8 below.

7.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agreement, it is
      agreed and understood that Group 1 shall be entitled to retain for itself
      from the Holdback Amount any Losses incurred by Group 1, its
      Representatives and Affiliates arising out of or related to (i) the
      failure of Sagent to comply with paragraphs 1 or 2 above, (ii) the failure
      of Sagent to deliver to Group 1 the capital stock of the France Subsidiary
      as of the Closing Date, (iii) the failure of Sagent to deliver to Group 1
      the capital stock of the German Subsidiary as of the Closing Date, (iv)
      the failure of Sagent to comply with paragraph 6 above in a timely manner,
      which causes Group 1 to fail to register or otherwise effectuate the
      transfers of the Purchased Subsidiaries with the respective governmental
      authorities of the jurisdictions of the Purchased Subsidiaries within the
      respective time period of such jurisdictions, and (v) the failure of
      Sagent to deliver to Group 1 the Transfer Tax Returns contemplated by
      Section 3.2(g) of the Agreement as of the Closing Date.

8.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agreement, Group
      1 shall have the right to elect not to accept the transfer of the capital
      stock of the France Subsidiary to Group 1 if Sagent fails to (a) satisfy
      any of its obligations as set forth in Section 1 herein or (b) deliver to
      Group 1 the information with respect to the France Subsidiary as specified
      in Section 6.1(n) of the Agreement, as of December 31, 2002 in accordance
      with paragraph 3 above. In the event that Group 1 elects not to accept the
      transfer of the capital stock of the France Subsidiary (and the parties do
      not otherwise agree for Group 1 to purchase

                                      -8-

      substantially all of the assets of the France Subsidiary), the calculation
      of Net Assets, for purposes of preparing the Statement of Net Assets
      pursuant to Section 2.6 of the Agreement, shall not include the net book
      value of the France Subsidiary.

      This letter agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed an original and all of
which counterparts, when taken together, shall construct one and the same
agreement.

      This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in
accordance with the internal laws (as opposed to the conflicts of law
provisions) of the State of New York.
