                                   AGREEMENT

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

         1.       Pledge of Shares. H.T.E. hereby pledges its interest in the
Shares as security for its obligations under the Note and performance of all
obligations thereunder and under this Agreement. The City shall have (and is
hereby granted) a security interest in the Shares (and the related Certificates
and all proceeds thereof (collectively, the "Collateral") in order to secure
the obligations of H.T.E. under this Agreement.

         2.       Ownership Rights. Unless a default has occurred under the
Note or this Agreement, H.T.E. shall have and enjoy all rights and attributes
relating to the Shares, including, without limitation, all voting rights,
rights to dividends, conversion rights, or such other distributions in respect
thereof.

         3.       Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
in the event that, during the term of this Agreement, any share dividend,
reclassification, readjustment or other change is declared or made in the
capital structure of the Company, all new, substituted and additional shares,
options or other securities issued with respect to the pledged Collateral by
reason of any such change shall be delivered to and held by the City under the
terms of this Agreement in the same manner as the Collateral originally pledged
hereunder.

         4.       Sale of the Collateral. H.T.E. shall have a right to sell the
Collateral, and the City agrees to cooperate and otherwise facilitate such sale
of the Collateral, under the following specific circumstances:

                  a.       At such time as the aggregate value of the
Collateral exceeds Four Million Dollars, which shall be determined as of the
close of the trading day, for Ten (10) consecutive trading days on the O.T.C.
or NASDAQ Markets, H.T.E. shall have the right to sell a proportionate number
of common shares representing such excess and retain for its own use the
proceeds of such sale; and

<PAGE>   2

                  b.       H.T.E. shall have the right to sell any portion of
the Collateral that it deems necessary, in its sole and absolute discretion, to
pay down the balance of the Note.

         5.       Events of Default; City's Remedies.

                  (a)      In the event H.T.E. shall, following the date
hereof, (a) default in any of their material obligations under any of the terms
of the Note, this Agreement or any other instrument or agreement evidencing,
securing or otherwise executed in connection with the issuance of the Note
(collectively, the "Security Documents"), (b) make an assignment for the
benefit of their creditors, (c) commence proceedings in bankruptcy for the
adjustment of H.T.E.'s debts under the Bankruptcy Code or under any law,
whether state or Federal, now or hereafter existing for the relief of debtors,
or (d) have a receiver appointed for any substantial part of H.T.E.'s assets
(each of the foregoing being an "Event of Default"), the City shall have the
rights and remedies provided in the Florida Uniform Commercial Code in effect
on the date of this Agreement (the "Code"), and may sell any such Collateral in
any manner provided under the Code, and the proceeds of any such sale shall be
applied first to the expenses of such sale (including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by the City in connection with any such
default by H.T.E.) and the balance, if any, shall be paid to H.T.E. Further,
following an Event of Default, the City shall have the right, but not the duty,
to thereafter exercise all rights with respect to voting privileges for the
Shares and, upon notice from the City, H.T.E. shall no longer exercise any
voting rights with respect to the Shares, or if so directed by the City, shall
vote the Shares as directed by the City. For purposes of determining, under
this paragraph and under the relevant provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code
of Florida, those costs chargeable against proceeds of the collateral in any
disposition of the same by secured party, such costs shall be deemed to
include, without limitation, all costs incurred by secured party in registering
the collateral (represented principally by restricted securities) with such
federal and state regulatory and other agencies as secured party reasonably
deems necessary in order to comply with all laws, rules and regulations
applicable to the sale of securities, including but not limited to legal,
accounting, printing, and underwriting costs and discounts.

                  (b)      No delay or omission on the part of City in
exercising any right granted hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right
or any other right. A waiver on any one occasion by City shall not be construed
as a bar to or waiver of any right on any future occasion. All rights and
remedies of City, whether granted herein or by the Note, shall be cumulative
and may be exercised separately or concurrently.

         6.       Termination of Pledge; Release of Shares. Subject to the
provisions in Paragraph 4 above, the pledge created hereby shall terminate upon
the later of (i) full payment or other satisfaction by H.T.E. of all
outstanding amounts owed by the H.T.E. to the City under the Note, or (ii)
performance of all of H.T.E.'s obligations under the Security Documents. Upon
termination of the pledge created hereby arising from such full payment and
satisfaction of obligations, City shall immediately release its security
interest in the Collateral and shall deliver to H.T.E. the Certificates and, if
applicable, any stock powers relating thereto, and any other Collateral
remaining in City's possession.

         7.       Amendment. This Agreement may be amended at any time by a
writing which refers to this Agreement and is executed by each of the parties

         2.1 Organization. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization, and is qualified to do business as a foreign
corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is necessary,

corporate and other similar power and authority to own and lease their
respective properties and to carry on their respective businesses as presently

such power and authority would not reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect. The Company has all required corporate power and
authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement, to
issue and sell the D Preferred Shares and Warrants hereunder, to issue shares of
Common Stock upon conversion of the D Preferred Shares and to carry out the

                     III. REPRESENTATIONS OF THE INVESTORS

         As part of the basis of this Agreement, each of the Investors hereby
severally represents to the Company that:

         3.1 Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the other documents executed by the
Investor pursuant hereto and thereto have been authorized by all necessary
action on the part of the Investor, have been executed and delivered, and
constitute valid, legal, binding and enforceable agreements of the Investor,
except as may be limited by (a) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other similar laws of general application relating to or
affecting the enforcement of creditor rights, (b) laws, judicial decisions and
public policy regarding indemnification or contribution for violations of
federal securities laws, (c) the availability of specific performance or other
equitable remedies, and (d) with respect to any indemnification or contribution
agreements set forth herein or therein, general principles of public policy.

         3.2 Investment Purpose. The Investor is acquiring the Securities and
will acquire any Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares for its own account, for
investment, and not with a view to any "distribution" within the meaning of the
Securities Act. The Investor has no present intention to make any transfer of
the Securities or any Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares.

         3.3 Reliance on Exemptions; Restrictions on Transferability. The
Investor acknowledges that the offer and sale of the Securities, the Conversion
Shares and the Warrant Shares is intended to be exempt from registration under
the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof. The Investor acknowledges
that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the Investor's
representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein in order to
determine the availability of such exemption. The Investor understands that
because the Securities, the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares have not
been registered under the Securities Act, it cannot dispose of any or all of the
Securities, Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares unless they are subsequently
registered under the Securities Act or exemptions from registration are
available. The Investor understands that no public market now exists for any of
the Securities and that the Company does not expect that a public market will
ever exist for the Securities. By reason of these restrictions, the Investor
understands that it may be required to hold the Securities for an indefinite
period of time. Subject to Section 6.1, the Investor agrees that except as to
transfers to Affiliates and, if such Investor is a limited partnership, to the
partners of such Investor, in no event will it make a transfer or disposition of
any of the Securities (or the Conversion Shares) without registration under the
Securities Act unless and until, if requested by the Company, at the expense of
the Investor or transferee, it shall have furnished to the Company an opinion of
counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such
transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act. The Investor
understands that each certificate representing the D Preferred Shares,
Conversion Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares will bear appropriate state "blue
sky" legends and a legend substantially as follows:

                                      -8-
<PAGE>   9

         THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
         UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT
         BE SOLD, MORTGAGED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED
         WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR SUCH SECURITIES UNDER
         THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNLESS SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER
         IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF
         SUCH ACT.

         3.4 Status of the Investor. THE INVESTOR HAS SUFFICIENT KNOWLEDGE AND
EXPERIENCE IN FINANCIAL AND BUSINESS MATTERS AND THE BUSINESS IN WHICH THE
COMPANY IS ENGAGED SO AS TO BE CAPABLE OF EVALUATING THE MERITS AND RISKS OF ITS
INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES AND THE CONVERSION SHARES, AND IS ABLE TO BEAR THE
ECONOMIC RISK OF THE LOSS OF ITS INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY. THE INVESTOR
UNDERSTANDS THAT ITS INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES INVOLVES RISK. THE INVESTOR IS
AN "ACCREDITED INVESTOR," AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED IN RULE 501(A)(3) OF
REGULATION D UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. The Investor has been furnished with or
has had full access to all of the information that it considers necessary or
appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the
Securities, the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares and that it has
requested from the Company, and has had an opportunity to discuss with
management of the Company the business and financial affairs of the Company and
to obtain information (to the extent the Company possessed such information or
could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify any
information furnished to it or to which it had access. Each Investor
acknowledges that counsel to the Company will rely upon the truth and accuracy
of the foregoing representations for purposes of delivering the legal opinion
pursuant to Section 1.3(d)(vi), and hereby consents to such reliance.

         3.5 Brokerage. There are no claims for brokerage commissions, finder's
fees or similar compensation in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement based on any arrangement or agreement made by the Investor.

         3.6 Own Account. The Investor is acting on its own behalf in connection
with the investigation and examination of the Company and its decision to
execute this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the other documents
contemplated hereby and thereby.

         3.7 Governmental Authorizations; Third Party-Consents. Except for any
filings under the HSR Act, no approval, consent, exemption, authorization, or
other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any governmental authority (or an
agency or political subdivision thereof) or other Person of any kind is
necessary or required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance
by the Investor of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, except for
federal and state securities filings, if any.

         3.8 Organization; Authority. The Investor is duly formed, and validly
existing, in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization,
with all power and authority

                                      -9-
<PAGE>   10

necessary to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement,
the Ancillary Agreements and the other documents contemplated hereby and
thereby.

         3.9 Effect of Transactions. The execution, delivery and performance of
this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and the fulfillment of the terms
hereof and thereof, will not result in any violation of the provisions of (a)
the charter or by-laws or similar document of the Investor or (b) except for any
such violation that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, any statute or any judgment, order, decree, rule or regulation of any
court or arbitrator or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the
Investor or any of its properties or assets.

         3.10 No "Group". The Investor is not acting as a "group" (within the
meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act) together with any other
Investor with respect to acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of the
Securities or the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares.

                          IV. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

         The Company hereby covenants that, except as otherwise provided below,
for so long as the Investor holds any of the Securities:

         4.1 Financial and Other Information. The Company will maintain a system
of accounts in accordance with sound accounting principles and procedures and
will keep full and complete financial records.

         4.2 Access to Information. While any Investor owns at least 3% of the
total amount of outstanding Common Stock (computed on an as-converted basis),
the Company will permit such Investor to inspect, with reasonable advance notice
and at the Investor's expense, any of the properties or the non-privileged books
and records of the Company and any of the Subsidiaries, to make copies of
extracts from such books and records and to discuss the affairs and condition of
the Company and the Subsidiaries with representatives of the Company and such
Subsidiaries, all to such reasonable extent and during normal business hours and
at such intervals as the Investor may reasonably request.

         4.3 Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the proceeds of the sale of
the Securities for working capital.

         4.4 Preservation of Corporate Existence and Property. The Company
agrees to preserve, protect and maintain, and cause each Subsidiary to preserve,
protect and maintain, (a) its corporate existence and (b) all rights,
franchises, accreditations, privileges and properties, the failure of which to
preserve, protect and maintain would reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

                                      -10-
<PAGE>   11

         4.5 Reserve for Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares. The Company shall
at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock
as shall be sufficient to effect the conversion of the D Preferred Shares and
the exercise of the Warrants, in each case from time to time outstanding. If at
any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not
be sufficient to effect the conversion of then-outstanding D Preferred Shares
and exercise of then-outstanding Warrants, the Company will forthwith take such
corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such
purposes. The Company will use its best efforts to obtain any authorization,
consent, approval or other action by or make any filing with any court or
administrative body that may be required under applicable state securities laws
in connection with the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the
D Preferred Shares and exercise of the Warrants.

         4.6 Listing. The Company shall promptly after the Closing use all
commercially reasonable efforts cause the Conversion Shares and the Warrant
Shares to be listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market (or on such other exchange or
interdealer quotation system on which the Company's Common Stock is then listed
or traded).

         4.7 No Additional Subscriptions. The Company shall not agree to sell or
accept additional offers or subscriptions to sell shares of Series D Preferred
after the date hereof.

                               V. INDEMNIFICATION

         5.1 Survival. The representations and warranties of the parties hereto
contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Transaction Documents shall
expire on the second anniversary of the Closing Date, except that the
representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.2 and 2.4 shall survive
until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including any
extensions thereof). After the expiration of such periods, any claim by a party
hereto based upon any such representation or warranty shall be of no further
force and effect, except to the extent a party has asserted a claim in
accordance with this Article V for breach of any such representation or warranty
prior to the expiration of such period, in which event any representation or
warranty to which such claim relates shall survive with respect to such claim
until such claim is resolved as provided in this Article V. The covenants and
agreements of the parties hereto contained in this Agreement or in any of the
other Transaction Documents shall survive the Closing until performed in
accordance with their terms.

         5.2 Indemnification. (a) The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold
harmless the Investors, their Affiliates, and their respective officers,
directors, partners, members, employees, successors and assigns (each an
"Investor Indemnified Person") from and against all Losses incurred or suffered
by an Investor Indemnified Person arising from (i) the breach of any of the
representations or warranties made by the Company in

                                      -11-
<PAGE>   12

this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (ii) the breach of any
covenant or agreement made by the Company in this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) no claim may be made
against the Company for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(i) unless the
aggregate liability of the Company exceeds $100,000, and the Company shall then
only be liable for Losses in excess of such amount and (B) the Company's maximum
liability for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(i) shall not exceed the
aggregate Purchase Price of the Series D Preferred and Warrants. Failure to give
timely notice or to include any specified information in any notice will not
affect the rights or obligations of any party hereunder, except to the extent
that, as a result of such failure, any party that was entitled to receive such
notice was materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.

             (b) Each Investor, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless the Company, its Affiliates, and their respective
officers, directors, partners, members, employees, successors and assigns (each
a "Company Indemnified Person") from and against all Losses incurred or suffered
by a Company Indemnified Person arising from (i) the breach of any of the
representations or warranties made by such Investor in this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document or (ii) the breach of any covenant or agreement made
by such Investor in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) no claim may be made against any Investor for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.2(b) unless the aggregate liability
of such Investor exceeds $20,000, and the Investor shall then only be liable for
Losses in excess of such amount and (B) the Investor's maximum liability for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.2(b) shall not exceed the Purchase
Price paid by such Investor for the Shares of Series D Preferred and Warrants
purchased by it hereunder.

             (c) A party seeking indemnification under this Section 5.2 shall,
promptly upon becoming aware of the facts indicating that a claim for
indemnification may be warranted, give to the party from whom indemnification is
being sought a notice of claim relating to such Loss (a "Claim Notice"). Each
Claim Notice shall specify the nature of the claim, the applicable provision(s)
of this Agreement or other instrument under which the claim for indemnity
arises, and, if possible, the amount or the estimated amount thereof.

                         VI. COVENANTS OF THE INVESTORS

         6.1 Agreements Not To Transfer. Each Investor agrees that it will not,
prior to the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement, Transfer any of
the Securities, Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares without the prior written
consent of a majority of the members of the board of directors of the Company,
such prior written consent of the Company not to be unreasonably withheld,
subject to the following provisions of this Section 6.1. Each Investor shall
have the right at any time to Transfer any of the Securities, Conversion Shares
or Warrant Shares to any of such Investor's Affiliates or, if such Investor is a
limited partnership, to the partners of the Investor, but in each case only if
such transferee executes and delivers to the Company a signature page to this
Agreement thereby agreeing to be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this
Agreement. Each Investor shall have the right at any time to Transfer any of the
Conversion

                                      -12-

consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and no termination by an
Investor shall affect the rights and obligations as between the Company and any
other Investor.

         7.3 Survival; Assignability of Rights. All representations of the
parties made in this Agreement and in the certificates, exhibits, schedules or
other written information delivered or furnished by any party in connection with
this Agreement will survive the delivery of the D Preferred Shares for a period
of two (2) years. All covenants and agreements made in this Agreement will

and their respective successors and assigns. Subject to the following sentence,
each Investor shall have the right to transfer any or all of its rights
hereunder to any Person that purchases D Preferred Shares or Conversion Shares

a signature page to this Agreement thereby agreeing to be bound by and entitled
to the benefits of this Agreement. This Agreement and the rights, duties and
obligations hereunder may not be assigned or delegated by any Investor without
the Company's prior written consent or by the Company without the prior written

obligations hereunder made by either party in violation of the preceding
sentence shall be void and of no effect. This Agreement and the provisions
hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the
parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement is

parties hereto.

irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the

proceeding is brought solely to obtain discovery or to enforce a judgment), and
if each such court refuses to accept jurisdiction with respect thereto, such
suit, action or proceeding may be brought in any other court with jurisdiction;
provided that the foregoing will not apply to any suit, action or proceeding by

proceeding from the Florida Court to another jurisdiction, (ii) consolidate any
such suit, action or proceeding brought in the Florida Court with a suit, action
or proceeding in another jurisdiction, or (iii) dismiss any such suit, action or
proceeding brought in the Florida Court for the purpose of bringing the same in
