                     AMENDMENT OF EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         THIS AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), dated this 20th day of
September, 2001, is by and between QuadraMed Corporation, a corporation
organized under the laws of the State of Delaware and having its principal
place of business at San Rafael, California (the "Company"), and Lawrence
P. English, an individual currently residing in Longboat Key, Florida (the
"Employee"), and

                              WITNESSETH THAT:

         WHEREAS, Employee and the Company have heretofore entered into an
employment agreement, dated as of June 12, 2000 (the "Employment
Agreement");

         WHEREAS, Employee and the Company desire to revise the Employment
Agreement to incorporate describe certain additional bonus opportunities
and change of control protections as recommended to the Company by the
Company's Employee compensation consultant, Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc.;

         NOW, THEREFORE, Employee and the Company hereby agree that from
and after the date of execution of this Agreement the Employment Agreement
shall be and is hereby amended as follows:

         1. Part One of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended by
adding a definition of "Board," to read in its entirety as follows:

                  ""Board" means the Board of Directors of the Company.

         2. Part One of the Employment Agreement is hereby further amended
by amending the definition of "Stock Option Plan" contained therein to read
in its entirety as follows:

                  ""Stock Option Plan" means any plan, program or policy of
         the Company for the granting of options to acquire Company stock
         or other equity-based incentives to employees of the Company and
         affiliates, including but not limited to the Company's 1996 Stock
         Incentive Plan (including the predecessor 1994 Stock Option Plan),
         as amended through the date hereof. and the Company's 1999 Stock
         Incentive Plan, as amended through the date hereof."

         3. Part Two, Section 5C, pertaining to Employee's potential bonus
compensation for services to the Company, is deleted in its entirety and
the following is inserted in lieu thereof:

                  "C. Employee shall be eligible for a discretionary bonus
         of up to fifty (50%) percent of Employee's then-current annual
         rate of base salary. Employee's discretionary bonus and timing of
         its payment will be determined by the Board in its sole discretion
         and based upon the recommendation of the Company's Compensation
         Committee and such additional factors as the Board deems
         appropriate, including Employee's individual performance and the
         Company's financial results.

                  "If the Company exceeds its annual operating cash flow
         goal for any of 2001, 2002 and 2003, then, in addition to whatever
         other bonuses to which Employee may be entitled under the other
         paragraphs of this Section 5C in respect of that year, Employee
         will be eligible to receive a cash bonus equal to 50% of his
         target annual bonus for the same year (the "Enhanced Bonus"). Any
         Enhanced Bonus earned for any year will be paid promptly following
         December 31, 2003 or, if earlier, promptly following the date of a
         Change in Control if but only if the Employee remains employed by
         the Company through such date and otherwise shall be forfeited. If
         for any of the specified years the Company does not exceed its
         annual operating cash flow goal, Employee will not be eligible for
         an Enhanced Bonus for that year; provided, however, that Employee
         will be eligible to receive the amount of Enhanced Bonus to which
         Employee would have otherwise been eligible for the year, subject
         to the vesting and payment provisions previously described, if
         over the total three years the Company achieves the aggregate of
         its annual operating cash flow goals.

                  "Employee may also be eligible for additional
         discretionary bonuses based on the achievement of certain
         specified goals established by the Board. Any award for such a
         bonus will be recommended and approved by the Board's Compensation
         Committee."

         4. The Employment Agreement and Part Two, Section 11 thereof,
pertaining to Employee's severance benefits on certain terminations of his
employment, is hereby amended by (i) redesignating Sections 11 B through D
as Sections 11 C through E and adjusting appropriately all cross-references
to any of said Sections and (ii) adding a new Section 11 B to read in its
entirety as follows:

                  "B. Severance and Welfare Benefits after Change in
         Control. If Employee is terminated by reason of an Involuntary
         Termination of Employee's employment (other than a Termination for
         Cause) in connection with or within twenty-four (24) months
         following a Change in Control, he will be entitled to the
         severance and welfare benefits described below in this Section.
         These benefits are in lieu of any entitlement to severance and
         welfare benefit continuation under preceding subsection or
         subsections of this Section, but in addition to any entitlements
         arising under other provisions of this Agreement (e.g., provisions
         providing accelerated vesting of Options). These benefits are as
         follows:"

                           "(1) A severance payment, payable in one lump
                  sum within thirty days (30) days of the date of such an
                  Involuntary Termination, in an aggregate amount equal to
                  two (2) times the sum of Employee's then-current annual
                  rate of base salary and his annual target bonus for the
                  year in which the Change in Control occurs. Employee may
                  elect, in his sole discretion, to have the severance
                  benefit payable pursuant to this Section paid in
                  approximately equal monthly installments over a one year
                  period following the date of his Involuntary Termination.

                           "(2) For a period of twenty-four (24) months,
                  Employee (and his dependents, if otherwise eligible)
                  shall be provided by the Company with the same life,
                  health and disability plan participation, benefits and
                  other welfare benefit coverages to which he was entitled
                  to as an employee of the Company immediately before his
                  Involuntary Termination (excluding, however, any
                  severance plan benefits). In the event that under
                  applicable law or the terms of any relevant Employee
                  Benefit Plan such participation, benefits and/or coverage
                  cannot be provided under an existing Company Employee
                  Benefit Plan, such coverage and/or benefits shall be
                  provided directly by the Company pursuant to this
                  Agreement on a comparable basis. In its sole discretion,
                  the Company may obtain such coverage and benefits through
                  private insurance acquired at the Company's expense. To
                  the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any
                  benefit coverage provided pursuant to this paragraph
                  shall be in discharge of any obligations of the Company
                  or any rights of Employee and his dependents under the
                  benefit continuation provisions under Section 4980A of
                  the Code and Part VI of Title I of ERISA ("COBRA") or any
                  other legislation of similar import."

         5. Part Three is hereby amended by adding at the end thereof a new
Section to read in its entirety as follows:

         Tax Effect of Payments.
         ----------------------

                  "A. Gross-Up Payment. In the event that it is determined
         that any payment or distribution of any type to or for Employee's
         benefit made by the Company, by any of its affiliates, by any
         person who acquires ownership or effective control of the Company
         or ownership of a substantial portion of the Company's assets
         (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the
         regulations thereunder) or by any affiliate of such person,
         whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant
         to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (the "Total
         Payments"), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section
         4999 of the Code or any interest or penalties with respect to such
         excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest or
         penalties, are collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then
         Employee shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a
         "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount such that after payment by
         Employee of all taxes imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, including
         any Excise Tax, Employee retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment
         equal to the Excise Tax imposed on the Total Payments.

                  "B. Determination by Accountant. All mathematical
         determinations and all determinations of whether any of the Total
         Payments are "parachute payments" (within the meaning of Section
         280G of the Code) that are required to be made under this Section,
         including all determinations of whether a Gross-Up Payment is
         required, of the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and of amounts
         relevant to the last sentence of this Section, shall be made by an
         independent accounting firm selected by Employee and reasonably
         acceptable to the Company from among the largest five (5)
         accounting firms in the United States (the "Accounting Firm"),
         which shall provide its determination, together with detailed
         supporting calculations regarding the amount of any Gross-Up
         Payment and any other relevant matters (the "Determination"), both
         to the Company and to Employee within five (5) business days of
         Employee's termination date, if applicable, or such earlier time
         as is requested by the Company or by Employee (if Employee
         reasonably believes that any of the Total Payments may be subject
         to the Excise Tax). If the Accounting Firm determines that no
         Excise Tax is payable by Employee, it shall furnish Employee with
         a written statement that such Accounting Firm has concluded that
         no Excise Tax is payable (including the reasons therefor) and that
         Employee has substantial authority not to report any Excise Tax on
         Employee's federal income tax return. If a Gross-Up Payment is
         determined to be payable, it shall be paid to Employee within five
         (5) business days after the Determination is delivered to the
         Company or to Employee. Any Determination by the Accounting Firm
         shall be binding upon the Company and Employee, absent manifest
         error. All of the costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall
         be borne by the Company.

                  "C. Underpayments and Overpayments. As a result of
         uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the
         time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm
         hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments not made by the
         Company should have been made ("Underpayments") or that Gross-Up
         Payments will have been made by the Company which should not have
         been made ("Overpayments"). In either event, the Accounting Firm
         shall determine the amount of the Underpayment or Overpayment that
         has occurred. In the case of an Underpayment, the amount of such
         Underpayment shall promptly be paid by the company to or for
         Employee's benefit. In the case of an Overpayment, Employee shall,
         at the direction and expense of the Company, take such steps as
         are reasonably necessary (including the filing of returns and
         claims for refund), follow reasonable instructions from, and
         procedures established by, the Company and otherwise reasonably
         cooperate with the Company to correct such Overpayment; provided,
         however, that (i) Employees shall in no event be obligated to
         return to the Company an amount greater than the net after-tax
         portion of the Overpayment that Employee has retained or has
         received as a refund from the applicable taxing authorities and
         (ii) this provision shall be interpreted in a manner consistent
         with the intent of this Section, which is to make Employee whole,
         on an after-tax basis, for the application of the Excise Tax, it
         being understood that the correction of an Overpayment may result
         in Employee's repaying to the Company an amount which is less than
         the Overpayment."

         6. Except as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this
Agreement, the provisions of the Employment Agreement remain in full force
and effect in accordance with their respective terms.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the
parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed under seal as
of the date first above written.

                     AMENDMENT OF EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         THIS AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), dated this 19th day of
September, 2001, is by and between QuadraMed Corporation, a corporation
organized under the laws of the State of Delaware and having its principal
place of business at San Rafael, California (the "Company"), and Michael H.
Lanza, an individual currently residing in Simsbury, Connecticut (the
"Employee"), and

                              WITNESSETH THAT:

         WHEREAS, Employee and the Company have heretofore entered into an
employment agreement, dated as of September 18, 2000 (the "Employment
Agreement");

         WHEREAS, Employee and the Company desire to revise the Employment
Agreement to incorporate describe certain additional bonus opportunities
and change of control protections as recommended to the Company by the
Company's Employee compensation consultant, Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc.;

         NOW, THEREFORE, Employee and the Company hereby agree that from
and after the date of execution of this Agreement the Employment Agreement
shall be and is hereby amended as follows:

         1. Part One of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended by
adding a definition of "Board," to read in its entirety as follows:

                  ""Board" means the Board of Directors of the Company."

         2. Part One of the Employment Agreement is hereby further amended
by amending the definition of "Stock Option Plan" contained therein to read
in its entirety as follows:

                  ""Stock Option Plan" means any plan, program or policy of
         the Company for the granting of options to acquire Company stock
         or other equity-based incentives to employees of the Company and
         affiliates, including but not limited to the Company's 1996 Stock
         Incentive Plan (including the predecessor 1994 Stock Option Plan),
         as amended through the date hereof. and the Company's 1999 Stock
         Incentive Plan, as amended through the date hereof."

         3. Part Two, Section 4C, pertaining to Employee's potential bonus
compensation for services to the Company, is deleted in its entirety and
the following is inserted in lieu thereof:

                  "C. Employee shall be eligible for a discretionary bonus
         of up to fifty (50%) percent of Employee's then-current annual
         rate of base salary. Employee's discretionary bonus and timing of
         its payment will be determined by the Board in its sole discretion
         and based upon the recommendation of the Company's Compensation
         Committee and such additional factors as the Board deems
         appropriate, including Employee's individual performance and the
         Company's financial results.

                  "If the Company exceeds its annual operating cash flow
         goal for any of 2001, 2002 and 2003, then, in addition to whatever
         other bonuses to which Employee may be entitled under the other
         paragraphs of this Section 4C in respect of that year, Employee
         will be eligible to receive a cash bonus equal to 50% of his
         target annual bonus for the same year (the "Enhanced Bonus"). Any
         Enhanced Bonus earned for any year will be paid promptly following
         December 31, 2003 or, if earlier, promptly following the date of a
         Change in Control if but only if the Employee remains employed by
         the Company through such date and otherwise shall be forfeited. If
         for any of the specified years the Company does not exceed its
         annual operating cash flow goal, Employee will not be eligible for
         an Enhanced Bonus for that year; provided, however, that Employee
         will be eligible to receive the amount of Enhanced Bonus to which
         Employee would have otherwise been eligible for the year, subject
         to the vesting and payment provisions previously described, if
         over the total three years the Company achieves the aggregate of
         its annual operating cash flow goals.

                  "Employee may also be eligible for additional
         discretionary bonuses based on the achievement of certain
         specified goals established by the Board. Any award for such a
         bonus will be recommended to the Board's Compensation Committee by
         the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. All bonuses pursuant
         to this paragraph are subject to final approval by the Board's
         Compensation Committee."

         4. The Employment Agreement and Part Two, Section 10 thereof,
pertaining to Employee's severance benefits on certain terminations of his
employment, is hereby amended by (i) redesignating Sections 10 C through E
as Sections 10 D through F and adjusting appropriately all cross-references
to any of said Sections and (ii) adding a new Section 10 C to read in its
entirety as follows:

                  "10 C. Severance and Welfare Benefits after Change in
         Control. If Employee is terminated by reason of an Involuntary
         Termination of Employee's employment (other than a Termination for
         Cause) in connection with or within twenty-four (24) months
         following a Change in Control, he will be entitled to the
         severance and welfare benefits described below in this Section.
         These benefits are in lieu of any entitlement to severance and
         welfare benefit continuation under preceding subsection or
         subsections of this Section, but in addition to any entitlements
         arising under other provisions of this Agreement (e.g., provisions
         providing accelerated vesting of Options). These benefits are as
         follows:"

                           "(1) A severance payment, payable in one lump
                  sum within thirty days (30) days of the date of such an
                  Involuntary Termination, in an aggregate amount equal to
                  the sum of Employee's then-current annual rate of base
                  salary and his annual target bonus for the year in which
                  the Change in Control occurs. Employee may elect, in his
                  sole discretion, to have the severance benefit payable
                  pursuant to this Section paid in approximately equal
                  monthly installments over a one year period following the
                  date of his Involuntary Termination.

                           "(2) For a period of twelve (12) months Employee
                  (and his dependents, if otherwise eligible) shall be
                  provided by the Company with the same life, health and
                  disability plan participation, benefits and other welfare
                  benefit coverages to which he was entitled to as an
                  employee of the Company immediately before his
                  Involuntary Termination (excluding, however, any
                  severance plan benefits). In the event that under
                  applicable law or the terms of any relevant Employee
                  Benefit Plan such participation, benefits and/or coverage
                  cannot be provided under an existing Company Employee
                  Benefit Plan, such coverage and/or benefits shall be
                  provided directly by the Company pursuant to this
                  Agreement on a comparable basis. In its sole discretion,
                  the Company may obtain such coverage and benefits through
                  private insurance acquired at the Company's expense. To
                  the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any
                  benefit coverage provided pursuant to this paragraph
                  shall be in discharge of any obligations of the Company
                  or any rights of Employee and his dependents under the
                  benefit continuation provisions under Section 4980A of
                  the Code and Part VI of Title I of ERISA ("COBRA") or any
                  other legislation of similar import."

         5. Part Three is hereby amended by adding at the end thereof a new
Section 14 to read in its entirety as follows:

         "14.     Tax Effect of Payments.
                  ----------------------

                  "A. Gross-Up Payment. In the event that it is determined
         that any payment or distribution of any type to or for Employee's
         benefit made by the Company, by any of its affiliates, by any
         person who acquires ownership or effective control of the Company
         or ownership of a substantial portion of the Company's assets
         (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the
         regulations thereunder) or by any affiliate of such person,
         whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant
         to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (the "Total
         Payments"), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section
         4999 of the Code or any interest or penalties with respect to such
         excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest or
         penalties, are collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then
         Employee shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a
         "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount such that after payment by
         Employee of all taxes imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, including
         any Excise Tax, Employee retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment
         equal to the Excise Tax imposed on the Total Payments."

                  "B. Determination by Accountant. All mathematical
         determinations and all determinations of whether any of the Total
         Payments are "parachute payments" (within the meaning of Section
         280G of the Code) that are required to be made under this Section,
         including all determinations of whether a Gross-Up Payment is
         required, of the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and of amounts
         relevant to the last sentence of this Section, shall be made by an
         independent accounting firm selected by Employee and reasonably
         acceptable to the Company from among the largest five (5)
         accounting firms in the United States (the "Accounting Firm"),
         which shall provide its determination, together with detailed
         supporting calculations regarding the amount of any Gross-Up
         Payment and any other relevant matters (the "Determination"), both
         to the Company and to Employee within five (5) business days of
         Employee's termination date, if applicable, or such earlier time
         as is requested by the Company or by Employee (if Employee
         reasonably believes that any of the Total Payments may be subject
         to the Excise Tax). If the Accounting Firm determines that no
         Excise Tax is payable by Employee, it shall furnish Employee with
         a written statement that such Accounting Firm has concluded that
         no Excise Tax is payable (including the reasons therefor) and that
         Employee has substantial authority not to report any Excise Tax on
         Employee's federal income tax return. If a Gross-Up Payment is
         determined to be payable, it shall be paid to Employee within five
         (5) business days after the Determination is delivered to the
         Company or to Employee. Any Determination by the Accounting Firm
         shall be binding upon the Company and Employee, absent manifest
         error. All of the costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall
         be borne by the Company."

                  "C. Underpayments and Overpayments. As a result of
         uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the
         time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm
         hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments not made by the
         Company should have been made ("Underpayments") or that Gross-Up
         Payments will have been made by the Company which should not have
         been made ("Overpayments"). In either event, the Accounting Firm
         shall determine the amount of the Underpayment or Overpayment that
         has occurred. In the case of an Underpayment, the amount of such
         Underpayment shall promptly be paid by the company to or for
         Employee's benefit. In the case of an Overpayment, Employee shall,
         at the direction and expense of the Company, take such steps as
         are reasonably necessary (including the filing of returns and
         claims for refund), follow reasonable instructions from, and
         procedures established by, the Company and otherwise reasonably
         cooperate with the Company to correct such Overpayment; provided,
         however, that (i) Employees shall in no event be obligated to
         return to the Company an amount greater than the net after-tax
         portion of the Overpayment that Employee has retained or has
         received as a refund from the applicable taxing authorities and
         (ii) this provision shall be interpreted in a manner consistent
         with the intent of this Section, which is to make Employee whole,
         on an after-tax basis, for the application of the Excise Tax, it
         being understood that the correction of an Overpayment may result
         in Employee's repaying to the Company an amount which is less than
         the Overpayment."

         6. Except as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this
Agreement, the provisions of the Employment Agreement remain in full force
and effect in accordance with their respective terms.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the
parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed under seal as
of the date first above written.
