     THIS  SECOND  AMENDMENT  TO  AMENDED AND RESTATED OFFICE BUILDING NET LEASE
(the  "Amendment")  is made as of October 4, 2001, by and between BEP-EMERY TECH
LLC,  a  Delaware  limited  liability company ("Landlord"), and EVOLVE SOFTWARE,
INC.,  a  Delaware  corporation  ("Tenant").

                                 R E C I T A L S
                                 ---------------

     A.     BEP-Emeryville,  L.P.  (predecessor-in-interest  to  Landlord)  and
Tenant  entered into that certain Amended and Restated Office Building Net Lease
dated  as  of  October  18,  2000, as amended by that certain First Amendment to
Amended and Restated Office Building Net Lease dated as of November 28, 2000 (as
amended,  the  "Lease")  for  approximately  72,351  rentable square feet in the
Building  (the  "Original  Premises").  The  Original  Premises  consists of the
following: (i) approximately 35,335 rentable square feet on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd
floors  of  the  East  Wing  of  the  Building  (the "East Wing Premises"), (ii)
approximately  15,926  rentable square feet on the 1st floor of the West Wing of
the  Building  (the  "1st  Floor  West  Wing Premises"), and (iii) approximately
21,090  rentable  square feet on the 2nd floor and mezzanine of the West Wing of
the  Building  (the  "2nd  Floor  and  Mezzanine  West  Wing  Premises").  Any
capitalized  term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning given to it
in  the  Lease.

     B.     The  Term  Expiration  Date of the Lease is July 20, 2007.  Tenant's
business  needs  are  such  that  Tenant  only  requires  to lease the East Wing
Premises.  Tenant  desires  to terminate the Lease with respect to the 1st Floor
West  Wing  Premises  and  the  2nd  Floor  and  Mezzanine  West  Wing  Premises
(collectively, the "Excess Premises").  Landlord agrees to the early termination
of the Excess Premises in return for Tenant's performance of the obligations set
forth  in  Paragraph  2  of  this Amendment.  Landlord and Tenant agree that the
Lease  with respect to the Excess Premises shall terminate early as set forth in
this  Amendment.

     C.     Landlord  and  Tenant  agree  to  amend the Lease upon the terms and
conditions  set  forth  herein.

                                A G R E E M E N T

hereinafter  defined)  is deposited by Tenant in an escrow account designated by
Landlord  pursuant  to Paragraph 2(d) (the "Termination Date").  Notwithstanding
the  foregoing,  if  Tenant  shall  be  in monetary default under the Lease with
respect  to  the  Excess  Premises  or  under this Amendment with respect to the
Excess  Premises  on  the Termination Date, the Lease with respect to the Excess
Premises  shall  not  terminate  and the Termination Date shall be the date that
such  monetary default is cured by Tenant.  Neither the termination of the Lease

<PAGE>
with  respect  to  the  Excess Premises nor anything contained in this Amendment
shall  relieve  Tenant  of any rental or other obligations or indemnities due or
owing under the Lease with respect to the Excess Premises or this Amendment that

All  such  obligations  and  liabilities shall remain outstanding until they are
satisfied.

          (b)  Prior  to  the Termination Date, Tenant shall continue to pay all

supposed to pay for the Excess Premises from the Termination Date until the Term
Expiration  Date is approximately $7,100,000.00.  In consideration for the early

respect  to  the  Excess  Premises  through July 10, 2003 and shall sublease the
Excess  Premises  to  Landlord from October 15, 2001 (the "Sublease Commencement

          (d)  At  any  time  prior to the Termination Date, with at least three
(3)  business days prior written notice to Landlord, Tenant shall have the right

by  placing  such lump sum amount into an escrow account (the "Escrow Account"),
with  Bank  of  America,  which  Escrow  Account  shall be solely designated and

controlled  by  Landlord.  The funds in the Escrow Account shall accrue interest
for  the benefit of Tenant at the best money market rates available with Bank of
America.  The interest accruing in the Escrow Account shall be paid to Tenant on
a  monthly  basis. Landlord may draw from the Escrow Account monthly payments of
Base  Rent  from  the  Escrow  Account as if Tenant were paying Base Rent in the
manner set forth in Paragraph 2(c) above, except that the Termination Date shall
in  such  event  be  the  date by which the funds were delivered into the Escrow

PRINCIPLES OF SIMILAR EFFECT.

RockShox's Releases.  As of the Effective Date, RockShox does hereby release and
forever discharge Answer, all of its past, present, and future officers,
directors, current, and former employees, shareholders, agents, predecessors,
successors, assigns, insurers, attorneys, subsidiaries, affiliates, parents,
joint ventures, partners, insurance carriers, and customers, and each of them
(collectively hereinafter, the "RockShox Releasees"), from any and all claims,
demands or liabilities of any nature whatsoever asserted in the Patent Case,
including without limitation the counterclaims and affirmative defenses for
invalidity and/or unenforceability with respect to the '090 Patent and the '675
Patent.

ROCKSHOX ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS FAMILIAR WITH THE PROVISIONS OF CALIFORNIA
CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH PROVIDES AS FOLLOWS:

"A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR
SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF
KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR."

ROCKSHOX, BEING AWARE OF SAID CODE SECTION, HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHTS
IT MAY HAVE THEREUNDER, AS WELL AS UNDER ANY OTHER STATUTES OR COMMON LAW
PRINCIPLES OF SIMILAR EFFECT.

No Prior Assignment of Released Claims.  The parties, and each of them,
represent that there has been no assignment or other transfer of any interest in
any claim or counterclaim released hereunder, and covenant not to assign or
transfer any interest in any claim or counterclaim asserted in the Patent Case
and otherwise being released in Sections 5.1 and 5.2.

                                  HOLD HARMLESS

The parties, and each of them, also agree to indemnify and hold the Answer
Releasees and RockShox Releasees harmless from any liability or claims, demands,
damages, costs, expenses, and attorneys' fees arising as a result of (i) any
assignment or transfer of any interest by a releasing party, (ii) litigation or
administrative proceedings by or before a third party or governmental entity
against the Answer Releasees or RockShox Releasees arising out of any rights
granted or purported to be granted under or in connection with this Agreement or
(iii) litigation or administrative proceedings by Manitou Mountain Cycles, Inc.
and/or E. Douglas Bradbury against RockShox Releasees arising out of any rights
relating to the '090 Patent.  It is the intention of the parties that this
indemnity does not require payment as a condition precedent to relief under this
indemnity.

License

License Grant.  As of the Effective Date, Answer grants to RockShox a
nonexclusive, worldwide right and license under each of the Patents to make,

bicycles and tricycles.  The license, which is irrevocable and fully paid-up,
shall remain in effect until the last of the Patents expires.

to grant sublicenses to any party.  Any rights not explicitly granted in Section
7.1 are expressly reserved by Answer and are not granted to RockShox.

               ANSWER PRODUCTS AND ROCKSHOX SETTLE PATENT DISPUTE

Answer Products, Inc. and RockShox, Inc. announced today a settlement in their
patent infringement lawsuit currently before the United States District Court
for the Central District of California in Los Angeles.  In March 2001, Answer
filed a complaint against RockShox alleging infringement of U.S. Patent Nos.
5,470,090 and 5,848,675.  RockShox disputed the complaint and alleged, among
other things, that the patents were invalid and not infringed.

Under the terms of the settlement, Answer and RockShox have agreed to dismiss
with prejudice all pending claims and counterclaims.  In addition, Answer has
granted RockShox a license to the patents.  In return, RockShox has agreed to
make an undisclosed payment in annual installments to Answer over a four-year
period.  All other terms of the parties' settlement are confidential.

Answer and RockShox have agreed that their settlement does not constitute and
should be construed as an admission of any strength or weakness of either
party's allegations in the suit.
