THIS WARRANT AND THE STOCK ISSUABLE UPON THE EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), AND CAN BE
TRANSFERRED ONLY IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS. THIS WARRANT AND SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED
IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT, UNLESS, IN THE OPINION OF
COUNSEL FOR THE COMPANY OR COUNSEL FOR THE REGISTERED HOLDER (WHICH SHALL BE IN
FORM AND FROM SUCH COUNSEL AS SHALL BE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY),
SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT THEN REQUIRED.

                          MICROWARE SYSTEMS CORPORATION
                          COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

     1. ISSUANCE. In consideration of good and valuable consideration, the
receipt of which is hereby acknowledged by MICROWARE SYSTEMS CORPORATION, an
Iowa corporation (the "Company"), Carbon Mesa Partners, LLC, a Nevada limited
liability company, or registered assigns (the "Holder") is hereby granted the
right to purchase at any time until 5:00 P.M., Pacific Coast time, on November
28, 2005 (the "Expiration Date"), 5,000 (five thousand) fully paid and
nonassessable shares of the Company's Common Stock, no par value per share (the
"Common Stock") at an exercise price of $____ per share (the "Exercise Price")
subject to further adjustment as set forth in Section 6 hereof.

     2. EXERCISE OF WARRANTS. This Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part
for whole shares of the Company's Common Stock at the Exercise Price per share
of Common Stock payable hereunder, payable in cash or by certified or official
bank check. In lieu of paying cash to exercise this Warrant, the Holder may (if
the Common Stock then deliverable to Holder is either not freely saleable by
Holder or is not then registered for resale pursuant to an effective
registration statement), by designating a "cashless" exercise on the Notice of
Exercise Form, acquire a number of whole shares of the Company's Common Stock
equal to (a) the difference between (i) the Market Value of the Company's Common
Stock and (ii) the Exercise Price, multiplied by (b) the number of shares of
Common Stock purchasable under the portion of the Warrant tendered to the
Company, divided by (c) the Market Value of the Company's Common Stock. Upon
surrender of this Warrant Certificate with the annexed Notice of Exercise Form
duly executed, together with payment of the Exercise Price for the shares of
Common Stock purchased, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate or
certificates for the shares of Common Stock so purchased. For the purposes of
this Section 2, "Market Value" shall be an amount equal to the average closing
bid price of a share of Common Stock for the five (5) business days immediately
preceding the Company's receipt of the Notice of Exercise Form duly executed.

     3. RESERVATION OF SHARES. The Company hereby agrees that at all times
during the term of this Warrant there shall be reserved for issuance upon
exercise of this Warrant such number of shares of its Common Stock as shall be
required for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant (the "Warrant Shares").

     4. MUTILATION OR LOSS OF WARRANT. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence
satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this
Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) receipt of reasonably
satisfactory indemnification, and (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute

<PAGE>

and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date and any such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated Warrant shall thereupon become void.

     5. RIGHTS OF THE HOLDER. The Holder shall not, by virtue hereof, be
entitled to any rights of a stockholder in the Company, either at law or equity,
and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in this Warrant and
are not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set forth herein.

     6. ADJUSTMENTS TO EXERCISE TERMS.

          If the Company at any time prior to the full execution of this Warrant
     shall, by subdivision, combination, merger, spin-off, re-classification or
     like capital adjustment of the securities, change any of the securities to
     which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or different
     number of securities of any class or classes, this Warrant shall thereafter
     entitle the Holder to acquire such number and kind of securities as would
     have been issuable as a result of such change with respect to the
     securities acquirable immediately prior to such transaction. If shares of
     the securities acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant are subdivided into
     a greater number of securities, including any stock dividend, or if such
     securities are combined into a lesser number of securities, then the
     purchase price for the securities acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant
     and the securities acquirable pursuant to this Warrant shall be
     proportionately and equitably adjusted.

     7. TRANSFER TO COMPLY WITH THE SECURITIES ACT; REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

          (a) This Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act of
     1933, as amended, (the "Act") and has been issued to the Holder for
     investment and not with a view to the distribution of either the Warrant or
     the Warrant Shares. Neither this Warrant nor any of the Warrant Shares or
     any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may be
     sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of an effective
     registration statement under the Act and applicable state securities laws
     relating to such security, unless in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to
     the Company, such registrations are not required under the Act. Each
     certificate for the Warrant, the Warrant Shares and any other security
     issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall contain a legend on
     the face thereof, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the
     Company, setting forth the restrictions on transfer contained in this
     Section.

          (b) The Company agrees to file a registration statement, which shall
     include the Warrant Shares, on Form S-1 or another available form (the
     "Registration Statement"), pursuant to the Act, pursuant to a Registration
     Rights Agreement between the Company and Holder dated as of the date hereof
     (the "Registration Rights Agreement").

                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

      THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is executed this 10th day of
May by and between PRT Group Inc., a Delaware corporation, with its principal
place of business at 80 Lamberton Road, Windsor, CT 06095, with all of its
direct and indirect subsidiaries, (the "Employer") and Dan S. Woodward, an
individual residing at 819 Heathcliff Court, Houston, TX 77024 (the
"Executive").

      RECITALS:

A.    Employer is a global information technology services company.

B.    The Executive is experienced in the information technology services
      industry, is the President of the Strategic Telecom Division of Electronic
      Data Systems (EDS) and is desirous of becoming the most senior executive
      responsible for the Employer.

C.    Employer believes the Executive will contribute to the growth and
      profitability of the Employer and desires to employ the Executive as the
      most senior executive responsible for the Employer.

D.    Employer agrees that it shall not require Executive to engage in any
      conduct which would violate any of the Executive's post-termination
      obligations to EDS arising under the Agreement between Executive or
      Employer.

E.    The Executive is willing to make his services available to Employer on the
      terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

      AGREEMENT:

      Therefore, in consideration of the premises, mutual covenants and
agreements of the parties contained herein, and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged,
Employer and the Executive hereby agree as follows:

      1.    Employment. Commencing on May 17, 1999 (the "Effective Date"),
            Employer, in reliance on such representations, shall employ the
            Executive and the Executive shall accept employment by Employer,
            upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

                                       1
<PAGE>

      2.    Term: The term of employment (the "Term") of this Agreement shall
            begin on the Effective Date and, except as otherwise provided in
            Sections 9, 10, and 11, shall end on May 17, 2002. The Term of this
            Agreement shall be thirty-six (36) months and shall not be further
            extended without the mutual written consent of the parties. After
            completion of the term, Executive's employment will be on an at-will
            basis.

      3.    Duties: The Executive will serve as the President and Chief
            Executive Officer of the Employer and shall report to the Employer's
            board of directors ("BOD"). As President of the Employer, the
            Executive shall have the primary responsibility to manage and direct
            the day-to-day business of the Employer, including the generation of
            income and control of expenses. In addition, Executive will be
            responsible for directing the organization with the objective of
            providing maximum profit and return on invested capital;
            establishing current and long-range objectives, plans, and policies
            subject to the approval of the BOD; and representing the Employer
            with its major customers, the financial community and the public. It
            is expected that a Business/Operations Plan will be developed no
            later than the end of the 3rd Quarter of 1999 for the year 2000 and
            beyond. As part of that plan, criteria will be mutually agreed to
            with regard to compensation and objectives needed to be met. The
            Executive shall perform such duties as may be reasonably assigned to
            him by the BOD. With the consent of the BOD, the Executive may (i)
            devote a reasonable amount of time and effort to charitable,
            industry or community organizations, and (ii) subject further to the
            provisions of Section 6, the Executive may serve as a director of
            other companies.

      4.    Compensation: During the Term, Executive shall be compensated as
            follows: (a) Salary. Executive shall be paid an annual salary of
            three hundred eighteen thousand dollars ($318,000) (the "Annual Base
            Salary"), to be distributed in equal periodic semi-monthly
            installments according to Employer's customary payroll practices.
            Nothing contained herein shall be construed to

                                       2
<PAGE>

            prevent Employer from increasing Executive's Annual Base Salary more
            often than annually. The Annual Base Salary will be reviewed
            annually by the BOD and increased (but not decreased) if the BOD, in
            its discretion, determines an increase to be appropriate, based on
            the types of factors the BOD usually takes into account in reviewing
            executive level salaries, including, but not limited to,
            cost-of-living factors.

                  (b) Annual Incentive Compensation. Employer will provide the
            Executive with a target bonus opportunity of one hundred percent
            (100%) of Annual Base Salary (the "Performance Bonus") under the
            annual incentive award plan. For 1999, Executive is guaranteed a one
            hundred and fifty thousand ($150,000) Performance Bonus.

                  (c) Employer will make the Executive eligible for
            participation in Stock Acquisition and Retention Program under the
            terms and conditions applicable to all other participants, subject
            to the approval of the Compensation Committee of the Board of
            Directors.

                  (d) Certain Additional Payments and Consideration. In addition
            to the above payments,

                        (i) Employer shall pay the Executive a sign-on bonus in
                  the aggregate sum (net of all payroll taxes) of two hundred
                  thousand dollars ($200,000) in cash within three business days
                  of the Effective Date.

                        (ii) Stock Options. Executive will be eligible to
                  participate in the Employer Stock Option Plan ("Plan"). Upon
                  the Effective Date, Employer will (a) award Executive four
                  hundred thousand (400,000) incentive stock options, (b) upon
                  signing this Agreement, Executive shall be awarded an
                  additional sixty-thousand (60,000) incentive stock options as
                  a sign-on bonus, and (c) at the regularly scheduled July 29,
                  1999 meeting of the BOD an additional two hundred and fifty
                  thousand (250,000) incentive stock options (cumulatively the
                  "Options"). All Options are subject to the terms of the Plan.
                  These Options have been approved by the Compensation Committee
                  of Employer's Board of Directors. All Options are subject to
                  the terms of the Plan. The four hundred and sixty thousand
                  (460,000) Options granted under subsections (a) and (b) above
                  will be priced as of

                                       3
<PAGE>

                  the closing market price on May 10, 1999 the additional two
                  hundred and fifty thousand (250,000) Options granted under
                  subsection (c) above will be priced as of the closing market
                  price on July 29, 1999. All Options will vest in three (3)
                  equal annual installments of one-third (1/3) each beginning
                  one (1) year from their respective grant date. A copy of the
                  Plan is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.

                        (iii) Change in Control. Notwithstanding any other
                  provision of the Plan to the contrary, while Executive's
                  Options remain outstanding under the Plan, a Change in Control
                  (as defined below) of Employer shall occur, then all Options
                  granted hereunder this Award that are outstanding at the time
                  of such Change in Control shall become immediately exercisable
                  in full, without regard to the years that have elapsed from
                  the date of grant, and, at the option of the Compensation
                  Committee of the Board of Directors, such Options may be
                  cancelled in exchange for a cash payment or a replacement
                  award of equivalent value. For purposes of this Award as well
                  as this Agreement, a "Change in Control" of Employer shall
                  occur upon the happening of the earliest to occur of the

                  (a) Non-competition. During the Term and for a two (2) year
            period after the termination of the Term and for any reason, the
            Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in or have any
            interest in any sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation or
            business or any other person or entity (whether as an executive,
            officer, director, partner, agent, security holder, creditor,
            consultant or otherwise) that directly or indirectly (or through any
            affiliated entity) engages in competition with the Employer (for
            this purpose, any business that engages in information technology
            consulting services or products similar to those services or
            products offered by the Employer at the time of termination of the
            Agreement shall be deemed to be in competition with the Employer at
            the time of termination of the Agreement shall be deemed to be in
            competition with the Employer provided that such services or
            products constitute at least five percent (5%) of the gross revenues
            of the Employer at the time of termination of the Agreement);
            provided that such provision shall not apply to the Executive's
            ownership of or the acquisition by the Executive, solely as an
            investment, of securities of any issuer that are registered under
            Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and that are listed or
            admitted for trading on any United States national securities
            exchange or that are quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market, or any
            similar system or automated dissemination of quotations of
            securities prices in common use,

                                       7

            so long as the Executive does not control, acquire a controlling
            interest in or become a member of a group which exercises direct or
            indirect control or, more than five percent (5%) of any class of
            capital stock of such corporation.

                  (b) Nondisclosure. During the Term and for a two (2) year
            period after the termination o the Term for any reason, the
            Executive shall not at any time divulge, communicate, use to the
            detriment of or for the benefit of any other person or persons, or
            misuse in any way, any Confidential Information (as hereinafter
            defined) pertaining to the business or the Employer. Any
            Confidential Information or data now or hereafter acquired by the
            Executive with respect to the business of the Employer (which shall
            include, but not be limited to, information concerning the
            Employer's financial condition, prospects, technology, customers,
            suppliers, sources of leads and methods of doing business) shall be
            deemed a valuable, special and unique asset of the Employer that is
            received by the Executive in confidence and as a fiduciary, and
            Executive shall remain a fiduciary to the Employer with respect to
            all such information. For purposes of this Agreement, "Confidential
            Information" means information disclosed to the Executive or known
            by the Executive as a consequence of or through his employment by
            the Employer (including information conceived, originated,
            discovered or developed by the Executive) prior to or after the date
            hereof, and not generally know, about the Employer or its or their
            respective businesses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein
            shall be deemed to restrict the Executive from disclosing
            Confidential Information that the Executive clearly demonstrates was
            or became generally available to the public other than as a result
            of disclosure by the Executive.

                  (c) Nonsolicitation of Employees and Clients. During the Term
            and for a two (2) year period after the termination of the Term for
            any reason, the Executive shall not directly or indirectly, for
            himself or for any other person, firm, corporation, partnership,
            association or other

                                       8
<PAGE>

            entity, other than in connection with the performance of Executive's
            duties under this Agreement, (i) solicit for employment or attempt
            to employ or enter into any contractual arrangement with any
            employee or former employee or independent contractor of Employer,
            unless such employee or former employee or former independent
            contractor, has not been employed by Employer for a period in excess
            of six months, (ii) call on or solicit any of the actual client or
            targeted prospective clients of Employer on behalf of any person or
            entity in connection with any business competitive with the business
            of Employer, and/or (iii) make known the names and addresses of such
            customers (unless the Executive can clearly demonstrate that such
            information was or became generally available to the public other
            than as a result of a disclosure by the Executive.

                  (d) Ownership of Developments. All copyrights, patents, trade
            secrets, or other intellectual property rights associated with any
            ideas, concepts, techniques, inventions, processes, or works of
            authorship developed or created by Executive during the course of
            performing work for Employer or its customers (collectively, the
            "Work Product") shall belong exclusively to Employer and shall, to
            the extent possible, be considered a work made by the Executive for
            hire for Employer within the meaning of Title 17 of the United
            States Code. To the extent the Work Product may not be considered
            work made by the Executive for hire for Employer, the Executive
            agrees to assign, and automatically assign at the time of creation
            of the Work Product, without any requirement of further
            consideration, any right, title, or interest that Executive may have
            in such Work Product. Upon the request of Employer, the Executive
            shall take such further actions, including execution and delivery of
            instruments of conveyance, as may be appropriate to give full and
            proper effect to such assignment.

                  (e) Books and Records. All books, records, and accounts
            relating in any manner to the customers of Employer, whether
            prepared by the Executive or otherwise coming into the Executive's
            possession, shall

                                       9
<PAGE>

            be the exclusive property of Employer and shall be returned
            immediately to Employer on termination of the Executive's employment
            hereunder or on Employer's request at any time.

                  (f) Acknowledgment by Executive. The Executive acknowledges
            and confirms that (i) the restrictive covenants contained in this
            Section 6(f) are reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate
            business interest of Employer including the legitimate interests of
            the Employer, and (ii) the restrictions contained in this Section
            6(f) (including without limitation the length of the term of the
            provisions of this Section 6(f) are not over broad, over long, or
            unfair and are not the result of overreaching, duress or coercion of
            any kind. The Executive further acknowledges and confirms that his
            full, uninhibited and faithful observance of each of the covenants
            contained in this Section 6(f) will not cause him any undue
            hardship, financial or otherwise, and that enforcement of each of
            the covenants contained herein will not impair his ability to obtain
            employment commensurate with his abilities and on terms fully
            acceptable to him or otherwise to obtain income required for the
            comfortable support of him and his family and the satisfaction of
            the needs of his creditors. The Executive acknowledges and confirms
            that his special knowledge of the business of the Employer is such
            as would cause Employer serious injury or loss if he were to use
            such ability and knowledge to the benefit of a competitor or were to
            compete with the Employer in violation of the terms of this Section
            6(f). The Executive further acknowledges that the restrictions
            contained in this Section 6 are intended to be, and shall be, for
            the benefit of and shall be enforceable by, Employer's successors
            and assigns.

                  (g) Reformation by Court. In the event that a court of
            competent jurisdiction shall determine that any provision of this
            Section 6 is invalid or more restrictive than permitted under the
            governing law of such jurisdiction, then only as to enforcement of
            this Section 6 within the jurisdiction of such court, such provision
            shall be interpreted and enforced

                                       10
<PAGE>

            as if it provided for the maximum restriction permitted under such
            governing law.

                  (h) Extension of Time. If the Executive shall be in violation
            of any provision of this Section 6 then each time limitation set
            forth in this Section 6 shall be extended for a period of time equal
            to the period of time during which such violation or violations
            occur. If Employer seeks injunctive relief from such violation in
            any court, then the covenants set forth in this Section 6 shall be
            extended for a period of time equal to the pendency of such
            proceeding including all appeals by the Executive.

                  (i) Survival. The provisions of this Section 6 shall survive
            the termination of this Agreement, as applicable.

      7.    Disability.

            If during the Term Executive is unable to perform his services by
            reason of illness or incapacity, for a period of sixty (60)
            consecutive days or three (3) months out of any six (6) month
            period, Employer may, at its option, upon written notice to
            Executive, terminate the Term and his employment hereunder. In the
            event of disability of the Executive as defined in this Section 7,
            employer shall continue to pay seventy-five percent (75%) of
            Executive's then current salary and benefits for the lesser of one
            (1) year or the remainder of the Term.

      8.    Termination for Cause.

                  (a) Employer shall have the right to terminate the Term and
            the Executive's employment hereunder for Cause (as defined below).
            Upon any termination pursuant to this Section 8, Employer shall pay
            to the Executive any unpaid Annual Base Salary through the effective
            date of termination specified in such notice. Employer shall have no
            further liability hereunder (other than for reimbursement for
            reasonable business expenses incurred prior to the date of
            termination, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 5(a)).

                                       11
<PAGE>

                  (b) For purposes hereof, the term "Cause" shall mean the
            Executive's conviction of a felony, the Executive's personal
            dishonesty directly affecting the Employer, willful misconduct
            (which shall require prior written notice to the Executive from the
            BOD unless not curable or such misconduct is materially injurious to
            Employer), breach of a fiduciary duty involving personal profit to
            the Executive or intentional failure to substantially perform his
            duties after written notice to the Executive from the BOD that, in
            the reasonable judgment of the BOD, the Executive has failed to
            perform specific duties.

      9.    Termination Without Cause.

                  (a) At any time Employer shall have the right to terminate the
            Term and the Executive's employment hereunder by written notice to
            the Executive. Any demotion resulting in a material adverse change
            in the duties, responsibilities or role, or reporting relationships
            of the Employee or movement of the Company's offices (as set forth
            in the first paragraph of this Agreement) in excess of seventy-five
            (75) miles shall be treated as a termination without cause of the
            Executive. Upon any termination pursuant to this Section 9 (that is
            not a termination under any of Sections 7, 8, or 10), Employer shall
            continue to pay to the Executive (i) the Annual Base Salary at the
            date of termination for the greater of one (1) year or remainder of
            the Term and (ii) Any earned Performance Bonus prorated as of the
            date of termination. Employer shall also continue to pay the
            premiums for the same or substantially similar Welfare Benefits and
            the Executive shall be entitled to the other benefits set forth in
            Section 5(b), (d) and (e) for the greater of one (1) year or
            remainder of the Term. In the event such entitlement is not allowed
            by law, the Executive shall be entitled to the cash equivalent of
            that benefit.

                  (b) The Options and any additional stock options granted to
            Executive shall be exerciseable as per the original vesting schedule
            of the applicable option grant and the Common Stock acquired
            pursuant to such

                                       12
<PAGE>

            exercise may be sold by Executive subject to no restrictions by
            Employer (other than those imposed by the Employer's then current
            insider trading policy or by federal and state securities laws). If
            the Executive is terminated without cause on or before July 29, 2000
            and the total value to the Executive of the Options and any
            additional stock options granted to Executive are less than one
            million dollars ($1,000,000), then the Employer shall be liable to
            pay the Executive the difference between one million dollars
            ($1,000,000) and the total value of the all options held by the
            Executive. For purposes of this section the value of Executive's
            options shall be determined, as of the effective date of the
            Executive's termination without cause, by multiplying the number of
            Executive's vested stock options times, the sum of the market price
            of the Employer's common stock less the grant price of all vested
            options. This payment shall be made to Executive in twelve (12)
            equal monthly installments, less any applicable taxes, unless
            otherwise agreed in writing by the parties. The Employer shall have
            no further liability hereunder (other than for reimbursement for
            reasonable business expenses incurred prior to the date of
            termination, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 5(a)).
            The Executive shall be entitled to receive all severance payments
            and benefits hereunder regardless of any future employment
            undertaken by the Executive.

10.   Termination by Executive.

                  (a) The Executive shall at all times have the right upon
            thirty (30) days prior written notice to Employer, to terminate the
            Term and his employment hereunder.

                  (b) Upon any termination pursuant to this Section 10 by the
            Executive without Good Reason (as defined below), Employer shall pay
            to the Executive any unpaid Annual Base Salary through the effective
            date of termination specified in such notice. Employer shall have no
            further liability hereunder (other than for reimbursement for
            reasonable business

                                       13
<PAGE>

            expenses incurred prior to the date of termination, subject,
            however, to the provisions of Section 5(a)).

                  (c) Upon any termination pursuant to this Section 10 by the
            Executive for Good Reason, Employer shall pay to the Executive the
            same amounts that would have been payable by Employer to the
            Executive under Section 9 of this Agreement as if the Executive's
            employment had been terminated by Employer without Cause. Employer
            shall have no further liability hereunder (other than for
            reimbursement for reasonable business expenses incurred prior to the
            date of termination, subject, however, to the provisions of Section
            5(a)).

                  (d) For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean:

                        (i) the assignment to the Executive of any duties
                  inconsistent in any material respect with the Executive's
                  position (including status, offices, titles and reporting
                  requirements), authority, duties or responsibilities as
                  contemplated by Section 3 of this Agreement, or any other
                  action by Employer which results in a material diminution in
                  such position, authority, duties or responsibilities,
                  excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial and
                  inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is
                  remedied by Employer promptly after receipt of notice thereof
                  given by the Executive.

                        (ii) any failure by Employer to comply with any of the
                  material provisions of Section 4 of this Agreement, other than
                  an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent failure not
                  occurring in bad faith and which is remedied by Employer
