All determinations, interpretations and selections made by the Committee regarding the Plan shall be final and conclusive.  The Committee shall hold its meetings at such times and places as it deems advisable.

In accordance with and subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have the authority to: determine whether and when Incentive Awards will be granted, the persons to be granted Incentive Awards, the amount of Incentive Awards to be granted to each person and the terms of the Incentive Awards to be granted; vary and amend vesting schedules, if any; permit delivery or withholding of stock in payment of the exercise price or to satisfy tax withholding obligations; and Waive any restrictions or conditions applicable to any Incentive Award.  Incentive Awards shall be granted or awarded by the Committee, and Incentive Awards may be amended by the Committee consistent with the Plan, provided that no such amendment may become effective without the consent of the Participant, except to the extent that the amendment operates solely to the benefit of the Participant.

SECTION 4

Shares Subject to the Plan

          4.1          Number of Shares.  Subject to adjustment as provided in subsection 4.2 of the Plan, a maximum of 500,000 shares of Common Stock shall be available for any form of Incentive Awards under the Plan.  Such shares shall be authorized and unissued shares.

          4.2          Adjustments.  If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding changes by reason of a stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination, exchange of shares or any other change in the corporate structure or shares of the Company, the aggregate number and class of shares available for grants or awards under the Plan, together with the Option prices, shall be appropriately adjusted.  No fractional shares shall be issued pursuant to the Plan, and any fractional shares resulting from adjustments shall be eliminated from the respective Incentive Award, with an appropriate cash adjustment for the value of any Incentive Awards eliminated.  If an Incentive Award is cancelled, surrendered, modified, expired or terminated during the term of the Plan but prior to the exercise or vesting of the Incentive Award in full, the shares subject to but not delivered under such Incentive Award shall be available for other Incentive Awards.

          4.3          Limits on Grants.  No Participant shall be granted, during any calendar year, Incentive Awards for more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan.  The purpose of this subsection 4.3 is to ensure that the Plan provides performance based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code.  This subsection 4.3 shall be interpreted or amended to achieve that purpose.

SECTION 5

Options

          5.1          Grant.  A Participant may be granted one or more Options under the Plan.  Options shall be subject to such terms and conditions, consistent with the other provisions of the Plan, as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  The Committee may vary, among Participants and among Options granted to the same Participant, any and all of the terms and conditions of the Options granted under the Plan.  Subject to subsection 4.3, the Committee shall have complete discretion in determining the number of Options granted to each Participant.

-4-

The Committee may designate whether or not an Option is to be considered an incentive stock option as defined in Section 422(b) of the Code.

          5.2          Grants to Non-Employee Directors.  Options to non-employee directors shall be granted under this Plan only pursuant to this subsection 5.2 and only when and to the extent that there are insufficient shares for such grants under the Company's 1989 Stock Option Plan or 1994 Long-Term Incentive Plan.  Each non-employee director who has served a full year's term for the prior year shall automatically receive an Option to purchase 1,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at one hundred percent (100%) of the Market Value on the date of grant.  Such Options shall be issued on the date of each annual meeting of the Company's shareholders.  These formula grant provisions may be amended by the Board from time to time but not more than once in any six-month period, except as necessary or desirable to comply with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the Code or the rules thereunder.

          5.3          Option Agreements.  Each Option shall be evidenced by an Option agreement containing such terms and conditions, consistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee from time to time determines.

          5.4          Option Price.  The per share Option price shall be determined by the Committee but shall be equal to or greater than one hundred percent (100%) of the Market Value on the date of grant.  The date of grant of an Option shall be the date the Option is authorized by the Committee or such future date specified by the Committee as the date for issuing the Option.

          5.5          Medium and Time of Payment.  The exercise price for each share purchased pursuant to an Option granted under the Plan shall be payable in cash or, if the Committee consents, in shares of Common Stock (including Common Stock to be received upon a simultaneous exercise).  The time and terms of payment may be amended with the consent of the Participant before or after exercise of the Option, but such amendment shall not reduce the Option price.  The Committee may from time to time authorize payment of all or a portion of the Option price in the form of a promissory note or installments according to such terms as the Committee may approve.  The Board may restrict or suspend the power of the Committee to permit such loans and may require that adequate security be provided.

          5.6          Reload Options.  The Committee may designate whether any Option granted to a Participant is a Reload Option.  Unless the Reload Option Agreement provides otherwise, the Option price for Options granted automatically to the Participant upon exercise of a Reload Option shall be equal to the Market Value on the date the Participant exercised the Reload Option, and the number of shares of common stock subject to the new option shall be equal to the number of shares for which the Reload Option was exercised.  The Committee may, in its discretion, add Reload Option features to options outstanding under this Plan and other option plans of the Company.

          5.7          Options Granted to Ten Percent Shareholders.  No Option granted to any Participant who at the time of such grant owns, together with stock attributed to such Participant under Section 424(d) of the Code, more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may be designated as an

-5-

incentive stock option, unless such Option provides an exercise price equal to at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Market Value of the Common Stock, and the exercise of the Option after the expiration of five years from the date of grant of the Option is prohibited by its terms.

          5.8          Limits on Exercisability.  Options shall be exercisable for such periods as may be fixed by the Committee, not to exceed ten years from the grant date.  At the time of the exercise of an Option, the holder of the Option, if requested by the Committee, must represent to the Company that the shares are being acquired for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof.  The Committee may in its discretion require a Participant to continue service with the Company and its Subsidiaries for a certain length of time prior to an Option becoming exercisable and may eliminate such delayed vesting provisions.  The Committee may also vary, among Participants and among Options granted to the same Participant, any and all of the terms and conditions of Options granted under the Plan.

          5.9          Transferability.

          (a)          General.  Unless the Committee otherwise consents or unless the terms of the Option agreement provide otherwise, no Option granted under the Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.  In addition, all Options granted to a Participant during the Participant's lifetime shall be exercisable during the Participant's lifetime only by such Participant, his guardian, or legal representative.

          (b)          Other Restrictions.  The Committee may impose such restrictions on any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option under the Plan as it deems advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under applicable federal or state securities laws.

          5.10          Termination of Employment or Director or Officer Status.

          (a)          General.  If a Participant ceases to be employed by or an officer or director of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries for any reason other than the Participant's death, disability or termination for cause, the Participant may exercise an Option only for a period of three months after such termination of employment, director or officer status, but only to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise the Option on the date of termination, unless the Committee otherwise consents or the terms of the Option agreement provide otherwise.  For purposes of the Plan, the following shall not be deemed a termination of employment or termination as a director or officer: (i) a transfer of an employee from the Company to any Subsidiary; (ii) a leave of absence, duly authorized in writing by the Company, for military service or for any other purpose approved by the Company if the period of such leave does not exceed 90 days; (iii) a leave of absence in excess of 90 days, duly authorized in writing by the Company, provided the employee's right to reemployment is guaranteed either by statute or contract; or (iv) a termination of employment with continued service as a director or officer.

-6-

          (b)          Death.  If a Participant dies either while an employee or officer of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or after the termination of employment other than for cause but during the time when the Participant could have exercised an Option under the Plan, or if a director dies while serving as a director of the Company or after ceasing to be a director but during such time as the director (or former director) could have exercised an Option under the Plan, the Option issued to such Participant shall be exercisable by the personal representative of such Participant or other successor to the interest of the Participant for a period of three months after the Participant's death, but only to the extent that the Participant was entitled to exercise the Option on the date of death or termination of employment or director status, whichever first occurred, unless the Committee otherwise consents or the terms of the Option agreement provide otherwise.

          (c)          Disability.  If a Participant ceases to be an employee, officer or director of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries due to the Participant's disability, the Participant may exercise an Option for a period of one year following such termination of employment or status as a director or officer, but only to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise the Option on the date of such event, unless the Committee otherwise consents or the terms of the Option agreement provide otherwise.

          (d)          Termination for Cause.  If a Participant is terminated for cause, the Participant shall have no further right to exercise any outstanding unexercised Option issued under the Plan.

SECTION 6

Restricted Stock

          6.1          Grant.  A Participant may be granted Restricted Stock under the Plan.  Restricted Stock shall be subject to such terms and conditions, consistent with the other provisions of the Plan, as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  Restricted Stock shall be awarded on the condition that the Participant remain in the employ of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries during the Restricted Period.  Such condition shall have no effect on the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the Participant's employment at any time.  No payment is required from a Participant for an award of Restricted Stock.

          6.2          Restricted Stock Agreements.  Each award of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by a Restricted Stock agreement containing such terms and conditions, consistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee from time to time determines.

          6.3          Termination of Employment or Director or Officer Status.

          (a)          General.  If a Participant enters into Competition with the Company or ceases to be employed by or an officer or director of the Company or one of its

-7-

Subsidiaries for any reason other than the Participant's death, disability or Retirement then any shares of Restricted Stock still subject to restrictions on the date of such termination shall automatically be forfeited and returned to the Company.  For purposes of the Plan, the following shall not be deemed a termination of employment or termination as a director or officer: (i) a transfer of an employee from the Company to any Subsidiary; (ii) a leave of absence, duly authorized in writing by the Company, for military service or for any other purpose approved by the Company if the period of such leave does not exceed 90 days; (iii) a leave of absence in excess of 90 days, duly authorized in writing by the Company, provided the employee's right to reemployment is guaranteed either by statute or contract; or (iv) a termination of employment with continued service as a director or officer.

          (b)          Death or Disability.  Unless the terms of the Restricted Stock agreement or grant provide otherwise, in the event a Participant terminates employment or director or officer status with the Company because of death or disability during the Restricted Period, the Participant's right to all of the Participant's Restricted Stock shall vest as of the date of death or disability, and the Participant's Restricted Stock may be transferred free of any restrictions under the Plan, except any restrictions as the Company may reasonably specify to ensure compliance with federal and state securities laws.

          (c)          Retirement.  Unless the Committee otherwise consents or unless the terms of the Restricted Stock agreement or grant provide otherwise, in the event a Participant terminates employment or director or officer status with the Company because of Retirement during the Restricted Period, then any shares of Restricted Stock still subject to restrictions on the date of Retirement shall automatically be forfeited and returned to the Company.

          6.4          Restrictions on Transferability.

          (a)          General.  Unless the Committee otherwise consents or unless the terms of the Restricted Stock agreement provide otherwise, shares of Restricted Stock shall not be sold, exchanged, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of by a Participant during the Restricted Period other than to the Company pursuant to subsection 6.3 or 6.4(b) or by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

          (b)          Surrender to the Company.  If any sale, exchange, transfer, pledge or other disposition, voluntary or involuntary, of Restricted Stock that has not vested shall be made or attempted during the Restricted Period, except as provided above in subsections 6.3 and 6.4(a), the Participant's right to the Restricted Stock shall immediately cease and terminate, and the Participant shall promptly surrender to the Company all such Restricted Stock in the Participant's possession.

          (c)          Other Restrictions.  The Committee may impose other restrictions on any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to an award of Restricted Stock as the Committee deems advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under applicable federal or state securities laws.

-8-

          6.5          Rights as a Shareholder.  During the Restricted Period, a Participant shall have all rights of a shareholder with respect to his Restricted Stock, including (a) the right to vote any shares at shareholders' meetings; (b) the right to receive, without restriction, all cash dividends paid with respect to such Restricted Stock; and (c) the right to participate with respect to such Restricted Stock in any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other adjustment in the Common Stock of the Company or any merger, consolidation or other reorganization involving an increase or decrease or adjustment in the Common Stock of the Company.  Any new, additional or different shares or other security received by the Participant pursuant to any such stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or reorganization shall be subject to the same terms, conditions and restrictions as those relating to the Restricted Stock for which such shares were received.

          6.6          Deposit of Certificates; Legending of Restricted Stock.

          (a)          Deposit of Certificates.  Any certificates evidencing shares of Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to the Plan shall be registered in the name of the relevant Participant and deposited, together with a stock power endorsed in blank, with the Company.  In the discretion of the Committee, any such certificates may be deposited in a bank designated by the Committee or delivered to the Participant.  Certificates for shares of Restricted Stock that have vested shall be delivered to the Participant upon request within a reasonable period of time.  The Participant shall sign all documents necessary or appropriate to facilitate such delivery.

          (b)          Legend.  Any certificates evidencing shares of Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to the Plan shall bear the following legend:

The shares represented by this certificate were issued subject to certain restrictions under the Manatron, Inc. 1995 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan").  A copy of the Plan is on file in the office of the Secretary of Manatron, Inc.  This certificate is held subject to the terms and conditions contained in a restricted stock agreement that includes a prohibition against the sale or transfer of the stock represented by this certificate except in compliance with that agreement, and that provides for forfeiture upon certain events.

          6.7          Representations and Warranties.  A Participant who is awarded Restricted Stock shall represent and warrant that the Participant is acquiring the Restricted Stock for the Participant's own account and investment and without any intention to resell or redistribute the Restricted Stock.

-9-

SECTION 7

Tax Benefit Rights

          7.1          Grant.  A Participant may be granted Tax Benefit Rights under the Plan to encourage a Participant to exercise Options and provide certain tax benefits to the Company.  A Tax Benefit Right entitles a Participant to receive from the Company or a Subsidiary a cash payment not to exceed the amount calculated by multiplying the ordinary income, if any, realized by the Participant for federal tax purposes as a result of the exercise of a nonqualified stock option, or the disqualifying disposition of shares acquired under an incentive stock option, by the maximum federal income tax rate (including any surtax or similar charge or assessment) for corporations, plus the applicable state and local tax imposed on the exercise of the Option or the disqualifying disposition.

          7.2          Restrictions.  A Tax Benefit Right may be granted only with respect to a stock option issued and outstanding or to be issued under the Plan or any other plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries that has been approved by the stockholders as of the date of the Plan and may be granted concurrently with or after the grant of the stock option.  Such rights with respect to outstanding stock options shall be issued only with the consent of the Participant if the effect would be to disqualify an incentive stock option, change the date of grant or the exercise price, or otherwise impair the Participant's existing stock options.  A stock option to which a Tax Benefit Right has been attached shall not be exercisable by an officer or employee subject to Section 16 of the Act for a period of six months from the date of the grant of the Tax Benefit Right.

          7.3          Terms and Conditions.  The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of any Tax Benefit Rights granted and the Participants to whom such rights will be granted with respect to stock options under the Plan or any other plan of the Company.  The Committee may amend, cancel, limit the term of, or limit the amount payable under a Tax Benefit Right at any time prior to the exercise of the related stock option, unless otherwise provided under the terms of the Tax Benefit Right.  The net amount of a Tax Benefit Right, subject to withholding, may be used to pay a portion of the stock option price, unless otherwise provided by the Committee.

SECTION 8

General Provisions

          8.1          No Rights to Awards.  No Participant or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Incentive Award, and there is no obligation of uniformity of treatment of Participants or holders or beneficiaries of Incentive Awards.  The terms and conditions of the Incentive Awards of the same type and the determination of the Committee to grant a waiver or modification of any Incentive Award and the terms and conditions thereof need not be the same with respect to each Participant.

-10-

          8.2          Withholding.  The Company or a Subsidiary shall be entitled to (a) withhold and deduct from future wages of a Participant (or from other amounts that may be due and owing to a Participant from the Company or a Subsidiary), or make other arrangements for the collection of, all legally required amounts necessary to satisfy any and all federal, state and local withholding and employment-related tax requirements attributable to an Incentive Award, including, without limitation, the grant, exercise or vesting of, or payment of dividends with respect to, an Incentive Award or a disqualifying disposition of Common Stock received upon exercise of an incentive stock option; or (b) require a Participant promptly to remit the amount of such withholding to the Company before taking any action with respect to an Incentive Award.  Unless the Committee determines otherwise, withholding may be satisfied by withholding Common Stock to be received upon exercise or by delivery to the Company of previously owned Common Stock.  The Company may establish such rules and procedures concerning timing of any withholding election as it deems appropriate to comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Act.

          8.3          Compliance With Laws; Listing and Registration of Shares.  All Incentive Awards granted under the Plan (and all issuances of Common Stock or other securities under the Plan) shall be subject to applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to the requirement that if at any time the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares covered thereby upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of such Incentive Award or the issue or purchase of shares thereunder, such Incentive Award may not be exercised in whole or in part, or the restrictions on such Incentive Award shall not lapse, unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee.

          8.4          No Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements.  Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company or any Subsidiary from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation arrangements, including the grant of options and other stock-based awards, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

          8.5          No Right to Employment.  The grant of an Incentive Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary.  The Company or any Subsidiary may at any time dismiss a Participant from employment, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in any written agreement with a Participant.

          8.6          Governing Law.  The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan and applicable federal law.

          8.7          Severability.  In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.

-11-

SECTION 10

Termination and Amendment

          The Board may terminate the Plan at any time, or may from time to time amend the Plan as it deems proper and in the best interests of the Company, provided that without shareholder approval no such amendment may (a) materially increase either the benefits to Participants under the Plan or the number of shares that may be issued under the Plan; (b) materially modify the eligibility requirements; (c) reduce the Option price (except pursuant to adjustments under subsection 4.2); or (d) impair any outstanding Incentive Award without the consent of the Participant, except according to the terms of the Incentive Award.

EXHIBIT 10.14

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

                    This EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement") dated as of December 12, 2005, between RANDALL L. PEAT ("Employee"), and MANATRON, INC., a Michigan corporation, maintaining its principal executive offices at 510 East Milham Avenue, Portage, Michigan 49002 ("Employer").

                    Accordingly, the parties agree as follows:

          1.          Employment.  Employer hereby employs Employee, and Employee hereby accepts this employment, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

          2.          Position.  Employee agrees to serve Employer in the position of Chairman and to serve Employer and its subsidiaries in such other executive or operational positions commensurate with Employee's experience and expertise as may be determined by Employer.  Employee shall devote his full business time, energies, best efforts, skill and attention to the duties arising out of or incident to his position and responsibilities pursuant to this Agreement, during the term of employment, and shall not engage in other employment or business opportunity, unless the employment or business opportunity is disclosed to and approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors in advance of the employment or business opportunity.

          3.          Duration.  Employment under this Agreement shall commence on the date set forth above and shall continue until terminated as provided in this Agreement.

          4.          Compensation.  In consideration for his services, Employee shall receive the following compensation:

          (a)          Salary.  While this Agreement is in effect, Employer (or, if applicable, an affiliate of Employer) shall pay Employee a salary and bonuses in an amount determined by the Board of Directors of Employer (the "Base Salary"); provided, however, that (i) the amount of Employee's bonuses for any given year shall not exceed sixty percent (60%) of the Employee's Base Salary during the immediately preceding one-year period, and (ii) in the event of a significant decline in the business and profitability of Employer for a sustained period of time, such compensation need not be maintained at then-current levels if, after reasonable notice to Employee, at least two thirds (2/3) of the entire Board of Directors reasonably determine that it would not be in the best interests of Employer to continue such compensation at then-current levels.  The Base Salary shall be reviewed annually and adjusted as the Board of Directors of Employer in its discretion deems appropriate and which shall be commensurate with Employee's position. 

          (b)          Vacation.  Employee shall receive paid vacation in accordance with Employer's vacation and hiring policies as in effect from time to time.

          (c)          Automobile Expenses.  If Employee is provided with an automobile or a car allowance for business purposes, it shall be provided in accordance with Employer's standard automobile use policies and practices.

          (d)          Bonus.  Employee will be eligible to participate in the Employer's executive incentive bonus plan as in effect from time to time.  Employee acknowledges that the terms of the bonus plan are subject to revision at Employer's discretion.  If Employee is terminated for any reason described in Section 5, Employee shall be entitled to receive his pro rata share of an Award (as defined in the plan in effect on the date of termination) for the portion of the fiscal year in which Employee participated in the plan.

          (e)          Benefits.  Employee shall receive standard benefits offered to all employees as determined from time to time by the Board of Directors of Employer.

          (f)          Reimbursement of Expenses.  Employer shall reimburse Employee for all reasonable proper travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by him in connection with the performance of his duties under this Agreement in accordance with Employer's policies for reimbursement.

          5.          Termination of Employment.  This Agreement and Employee's employment pursuant to this Agreement may be terminated prior to the expiration of the stated term of this Agreement as follows:

          (a)          Termination by Employee.  Employee is free to resign from employment at any time with or without cause, by providing thirty (30) days' prior written notification to Employer.  For purposes of this Agreement, "With Cause" shall mean:  

          (i)          Without Employee's express written consent, the assignment to Employee of any duties inconsistent with Employee's present position or positions, duties, responsibilities and status with Employer or a subsidiary, except in connection with Employee's termination as provided below in Sections 5(c), (d) or (e) or by Employee other than "With Cause";

          (ii)          A reduction in Employee's Base Salary as in effect on the date of this Agreement or as the same may be increased from time to time, by more than fifteen percent (15%); or

          (iii)          Without Employee's express written consent, a relocation of Employee to a location outside of Employee's current employment location, except for required travel on business of Employer to an extent substantially consistent with Employee's present business travel obligations.

          (b)          Termination by Employer.  Employer may terminate Employee's employment at any time, with or without cause and with or without prior review, notice or warning by providing thirty (30) days' prior written notification to Employee.

2

          (c)          Death.  Employee's employment under this Agreement shall terminate in the event of Employee's death.  Obligations of Employer hereunder shall terminate as of the date of Employee's termination for death.

          (d)          Disability.  Employer may terminate this Agreement for "Disability" if, as a result of Employee's incapacity due to physical or mental illness, he shall have been absent from his duties with Employer on a full-time basis for six (6) consecutive months, and if he shall not have returned to the full time performance of his duties within thirty (30) days after written notice after such six (6) month period.

          (e)          For Cause.  Employee's employment under this Agreement may be terminated by Employer for "Cause" at any time.  For purposes of this Agreement, termination shall be considered to be for "Cause" if based upon (i) Employee's conviction of a crime involving moral turpitude or embezzlement; (ii) Employee's willful activities in competition with Employer or in aid of its competitors; (iii) the willful and continued failure to substantially perform Employee's duties with Employer under this Agreement (other than any other such failure resulting from Disability), after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to Employee that specifically identifies the manner in which Employer believes Employee has willfully failed to substantially perform his duties, and after Employee has failed to resume substantial performance of his duties on a continuous basis within fourteen (14) calendar days of receiving such demand; or (iv) Employee willfully engaging in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to Employer, monetarily or otherwise.  For purposes of (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, no act, or failure to act, on Employee's part shall be deemed "willful" unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Employee not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the action or omission was in the best interest of Employer.  

          6.          Severance Pay.  If Employer terminates Employee under Section 5(b) (Termination by Employer), or if Employee terminates employment under Section 5(a) (Termination by Employee), Employer or its successor in interest shall continue payment of Employee's salary and benefits (to the extent permitted under the terms of Employer's benefit plans and subject to Employee's continuing payment of the normal employee contribution) for a period of two years ("Severance Pay").  Employee agrees that Employee's right to receive Severance Pay is conditioned on the prior execution by Employee of a binding general release (in such form as Employer may determine) of any and all claims against Employer and all co-owned entities, and their officers, directors, employees, agents and owners.

          7.          Non-Competition Covenants of Employee.  While employed by Employer and during the period after termination during which Employee receives any Severance Pay, Employee shall not:

          (a)          Engage, and shall have no investment, involvement or other connection whatsoever, direct or indirect, with any corporation, partnership, proprietorship, individual or other business entity that is engaged, in whole or in part, in any line of business that is the same as, similar to or directly or indirectly in competition with the business of Employer, or its successors and assigns, as it is now, or as it may during

3

Employee's employment be, conducted in North America ("Competing Entity"); this provision shall not, however, restrict the right of Employee to own less than one percent (1%) of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock in any company listed on a national or regional stock exchange, or whose stock is quoted on a NASDAQ market, regardless of the nature of the business.

          (b)          Be or become a shareholder, partner or other investor, or an officer, employee, consultant, adviser or director or an agent (whether independent or otherwise) for any Competing Entity; this provision shall not, however, restrict the right of Employee to own less than one percent (1%) of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock in any company listed on a national or regional stock exchange, or whose stock is quoted on a NASDAQ market, regardless of the nature of the business.

          (c)          Solicit either for himself or on behalf of any Competing Entity, any "active customer of Employer" where an "active customer of Employer" is a person or entity who or which is or has been a customer of Employer during the term of Employee's employment or during the two (2) years preceding Employee's termination of employment.

          (d)          Employee acknowledges that Employer has been conducting its business in North America, and that the restrictive covenants assumed by Employee pursuant to this Agreement are essential to the business of Employer and its goodwill.  To the extent any part of this covenant may be held unenforceable as set forth herein, the restrictions set forth herein shall be severable so as to confine their application to the geographical and time restrictions as a court deems to be reasonable.

          (e)          The provisions set forth in this Section 7 shall be in effect while Employee is employed by Employer and for the period of time during which Employee receives Severance Pay.  In the event Employee breaches any of the terms, conditions or provisions under this Section 7, the remedy available to Employer shall be the right of Employer to receive actual damages along with the forfeiture of Severance Pay (paid or unpaid) if such breach occurs prior to any employment termination.  If such breach occurs subsequent to any employment termination, the sole remedy of Employer for the breach shall be the forfeiture of the right of Employee to receive any unpaid Severance Pay.

          8.          Covenant Not to Solicit Employees.  During the period after termination during which Employee receives any Severance Pay, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, induce or attempt to influence any employee of Employer to terminate employment, except in his capacity as an officer of Employer in the ordinary course of business or as approved by the Board of Directors of Employer.  The sole remedy of Employer for breach of the covenant set forth in this Section 8 shall be the forfeiture of the right of Employee to receive any unpaid Severance Pay.

          9.          Covenant Not to Disclose Confidential Information.  Employee agrees that all information regarding manufacturing technique, process, formula, development or experimental

4

work, work in process, business, trade secret or any other secret or confidential matter relating to the products, sales or business at Employer, including, but not limited to, customer lists, sales records, financial statements, payroll records, ledgers, corporate records, account numbers, contact lists and other information of any nature whatsoever pertaining to the business of Employer are of a proprietary and confidential nature and that none of such information shall be disclosed, published or made use of for any purpose by Employee without the prior written consent of Employer.

          10.          Covenant Not to Use Trade Name.  Employee agrees that he shall not, directly or indirectly, be or become an investor, partner, shareholder, officer, employee, director, consultant, adviser or agent of, or have any other affiliation with or economic interest in, any corporation, partnership, proprietorship or other business entity that has "ProVal," "Manatron," "ATEK," "Specialized Data Systems" or "Sabre" as any part of its name or trade name except for Employer or any companies or businesses affiliated with Employer; this provision shall not, however, restrict the right of Employee to own less than one percent of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock in any company listed on a national or regional stock exchange, or whose stock is quoted on a NASDAQ market, regardless of the nature of the business.

          11.          Specific Performance Available.  The provisions set forth in Sections 9 and 10 shall be in effect while Employee is employed by Employer and also following termination of employment.  Employee recognizes and acknowledges that in the event of any default in, or breach of any of, the terms, conditions and provisions of Sections 9 or 10, Employer's remedies at law shall be inadequate.  Accordingly, Employee agrees that in such event, Employer shall be entitled to the remedies of specific performance and injunctive relief in addition to actual damages and any and all other remedies and rights at law or in equity, and such rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

          12.          Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties as to Employee's employment.  For purposes of clarification, this Employment Agreement replaces and supersedes the Employment Agreement dated July 17, 1986, as amended, between Employee and Employer. All prior discussions, compensation understandings, negotiations and agreements notwithstanding, this Agreement constitutes the parties' sole source of rights and duties with respect to Employee's employment.  This Agreement may not be changed orally, but only by agreement in writing expressly identifying itself as an amendment to this Agreement and signed by Employee and Employer.

          13.          Agreement Binding on Successors.  This Agreement shall be binding upon Employer and its successors and assigns.  The rights and duties of Employee are personal to him and shall not be subject to transfer, delegation or assignment.

          14.          Amendment and Waiver.  This Agreement has been authorized by Employer's Board of Directors.  No employee or officer of Employer has authority to offer employment other than employment terminable at will, or to limit Employer's ability to terminate employment at will in any way; employment on any other terms may only be authorized by a written resolution of the Board of Directors.  No waiver by either party at any time of any breach

5

by the other party or compliance with any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by the other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or condition at the time or any time prior or subsequent time.

          15.          Severability.  Any provision or term of this Agreement that shall be found to be contrary to law or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, shall not affect the remaining terms of this Agreement, which shall be continued as if the unenforceable provision were absent from this Agreement.  It is the desire and intent of the parties to this Agreement that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.

          16.          Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan.

          17.          Arbitration.  Any dispute or controversy under this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Kalamazoo, Michigan, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect.  Judgment may be entered on the arbitration award in any court having jurisdiction.  Employer will reimburse Employee for all reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Employee as a result of any arbitration with regard to any issue under this Agreement (or any judicial proceeding to compel or to enforce such arbitration):  (a) which is initiated by Employee if Employer is found in such proceeding to have violated this Agreement substantially as alleged by Employee; or (b) which is initialed by Employer, unless Employee is found in such proceeding to have violated this Agreement substantially as alleged by Employer.

          18.          Notice.  All notices, request, demands, consents, waivers, instructions, approvals and the communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given if personally delivered to or mailed as follows:
