THE STATE OF MISSOURI         Section
                              Section        KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS:
COUNTY OF ST. LOUIS           Section

         THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE (this "Amendment") has been executed as
of the 25th day of March, 2004, by Olympia Properties, L.L.C., a Washington
limited liability company, ("Landlord"), and DALEEN SOLUTIONS, INC., a Delaware
corporation ("Tenant").

                                R E C I T A L S:

         A. Landlord and Intertech Management Group, Inc. ("Prior Tenant") have
heretofore executed that certain Lease (the "Lease"), dated as of September 16,
1999, pursuant to which Tenant leased approximately 19,981 rentable square feet
of which 17,095 rentable square feet are located on the third (3rd) floor and
2,886 rentable square feet are located on the second (2nd) floor (the "Original
Premises") of that certain building known as Lakeview Office Center, 14500 South
Outer Forty Road, Chesterfield, Missouri, and more particularly described in the
Lease (the "Building"). Unless otherwise defined herein, all initially
capitalized terms will have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the
Lease.

         B. Tenant and Vestal Corporation ("Subtenant") entered into a Sublease
Agreement ("Sublease"), dated October 1, 2002, for approximately 2,886 rentable
square feet on the second (2nd) floor of the Building, as Consented to by
Landlord pursuant to that certain Consent to Sublease, dated as of September 30,
2002, by and between Landlord, Tenant and Subtenant.

         C. Prior Tenant assigned all of its right, title and interest in the
Lease to Tenant pursuant to that certain Assignment of Lease, dated as of
December 20, 2002, by and between Tenant and Prior Tenant, as consented to by
Landlord pursuant to that certain Consent to Assignment, dated as of December
20, 2002. Tenant has assumed and accepted all of Prior Tenant's interest and
obligations under the Lease.

         D. Landlord and Tenant desire to execute this Amendment in order to
evidence their agreement to (i) reduce the size of the Original Premises, (ii)
extend the Term of the Lease and (iii) make certain other amendments to the
Lease, all as more particularly set forth in this Amendment.

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

                                    Article I

                               CERTAIN AMENDMENTS

         SECTION 1.01. Reduction of Premises. As of October 1, 2004 (the
"Effective Date"), the Original Premises shall be reduced by the second (2nd)
floor space containing approximately 2,886 rentable square feet in the Building
which is outlined on the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Give-Back
Premises") (the Original Premises, after such reduction, being the "Premises").
As of the Effective Date, the Premises shall be redefined to contain
approximately 17,095 rentable square feet on the third (3rd) floor of the
Building. As of the Effective Date, Tenant's Proportionate Share shall be
amended to 20.16% (i.e., 17,095 rentable square feet in the Premises divided by
84,193 rentable square feet in the Building). Since the expiration date of the
Sublease is November 30, 2004, Tenant shall be solely responsible for
terminating the Sublease and/or, at Landlord's sole election, arranging a direct
transaction between the Subtenant and Landlord. In connection therewith, Tenant
shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims,
losses or causes of action asserted or alleged by Subtenant resulting from a
termination of the Lease as to the Give-Back Premises.

         SECTION 1.02. Surrender of Give-Back Premises. As of the Effective
Date, Tenant shall (and Tenant shall have caused Subtenant to) have vacated and
abandoned the Give-Back Premises and removed all office equipment, supplies and
furniture and other property, alterations, improvements, wiring and cabling as
directed by Landlord or as required under the Lease. As of the Effective Date,
Tenant shall deliver the Give-Back Premises to Landlord in broom-clean condition
and shall have no further right to the Give-Back Premises or possession of the
Give-Back Premises (i.e., Landlord may re-lease the Give-Back Premises to
another occupant and commence improvements). If Tenant fails to deliver the
Give-Back Premises in the condition required under this Section 1.02 on the
Effective Date, Tenant shall be deemed for all purposes to be in hold-over, in
addition to all other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity.

         SECTION 1.03. Term of Lease. As of the date hereof, the Term of the
Lease shall be extended from November 30, 2004, through and including October
31, 2009, subject to adjustment and earlier termination as provided in the
Lease. Except as set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto, any and all Tenant
options to extend the Term of the Lease are hereby deleted.

Basic Rental due and payable by Tenant to Landlord during the Term, as hereby
extended, will be as follows:

 3/1/06 -  2/28/07               $17.25                   $24,574.06

</TABLE>

* Landlord hereby abates two (2) months (April 2004 and May 2004) of Basic
Rental described above, and Tenant acknowledges that said $12.00 rate effective
through February 28, 2005, reflects a reduction in the market rent equal to
$5.00 per rentable square foot in the Premises (i.e., the market rate for the
Premises is $17.00 per rentable square foot per annum). Further, Landlord will
issue a credit for any Basic Rental already paid by Tenant at the previous rate
for March 2004. Tenant shall pay all other obligations accruing during such
months. If Tenant defaults under this Lease beyond any applicable period of
notice and cure, any remaining rent abatement or rent reduction shall cease from
the date of such default, and Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord all sums
previously abated and/or reduced hereunder.

The Basic Rental under the Lease shall be due and payable in equal monthly
installments, each such monthly installment due and payable on the first day of
each calendar month, in advance, without demand and without setoff or deduction
whatsoever.

         SECTION 1.05. Base Year. As of March 1, 2004, the Base Year shall be
amended to be the calendar year 2004. Tenant shall continue to pay direct
electrical charges for all separately metered usage, including, without
limitation, the computer room.

         SECTION 1.06. Commissions. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that no
brokers have been involved in this Amendment other than Sansone Group/DDR L.L.C.
and Colliers Turley Martin Tucker (collectively, "Brokers"), and Landlord will
be solely responsible for the commissions, if any, owed such Brokers by separate
agreement. Landlord and Tenant hereby

FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE          Page 3 of 6

<PAGE>

indemnify each other from the payment of any commissions owed to any broker with
respect to this Amendment resulting from the acts of such party, but not
otherwise.

         SECTION 1.07. "AS-IS." Tenant accepts the Premises "AS-IS" and Landlord
has no obligation to make, or pay or otherwise reimburse Tenant for, any
improvements, alterations or additions to the Premises, except as set forth on
Exhibit B.

         SECTION 1.08. Parking. Exhibit C of the Lease is deleted and replaced
with the following: "During the Term, as hereby extended through and including
October 31, 2009, Tenant shall be permitted to use sixty-eight (68) vehicular
parking spaces in the surface parking lot associated with the Building (the
"Parking Facility"), of which seven (7) shall be designated reserved for
Tenant's use, at no charge, subject to adjustment by Landlord upon prior notice
to Tenant. If Tenant sublets any portion of the Premises or assigns any of its
interest in this Lease, then the parking spaces allocated to Tenant hereunder
shall be reduced to the extent the ratio between the rentable square feet of the
Premises and the parking spaces granted to Tenant hereunder exceeds the Building
standard ratio of parking space per rentable square foot as established by
Landlord from time to time. Subject to the foregoing, Tenant's use of such
spaces remains subject to such terms, conditions and regulations as are from
time to time charged or applicable to patrons of the Parking Facility.

         SECTION 1.09. Extension Option. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant an
extension option subject to Exhibit C attached hereto.

         SECTION 1.10. Further Amendments. The Lease shall be and hereby is
further amended wherever necessary, even though not specifically referred to
herein, in order to give effect to the terms of this Amendment. Exhibits E and G
attached to the Lease shall be deleted and deemed null and void for all
purposes. The words "sufficient to pay all rental obligations under the Lease"
in Section 10.d. of the Lease are hereby defined to mean a "tangible net worth
equal to or greater than $8,000,000."

                                   Article II

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         SECTION 2.01. Ratification. The Lease, as amended hereby, is hereby
ratified, confirmed and deemed in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms. Tenant represents to Landlord that Tenant (a) is currently unaware of any
default by Landlord under the Lease; and (b) has full power and authority to
execute and deliver this Amendment and this Amendment represents a valid and
binding obligation of Tenant enforceable in accordance with its terms.

         SECTION 2.02. Notices. All notices to be delivered to Landlord under
the Lease or otherwise with respect to the Premises shall, unless Landlord
otherwise notifies Tenant, be

delivered to Landlord in accordance with notice provisions of the Lease at the

                           Attn.: Asset Manager

                           Boca Raton, Florida 33487

         SECTION 2.03. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri.

         SECTION 2.04. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in multiple
counterparts each of which is deemed an original but together constitute one and
the same instrument. This Amendment may be executed by facsimile and each party
has the right to rely upon a facsimile counterpart of this Amendment signed by
the other party to the same extent as if such party had received an original
counterpart.

         SECTION 2.05. Landlord's Liability/Default. Any liability of Landlord
under the Lease and/or with respect to the Building, the common areas, the
Premises or otherwise shall be limited solely to its interest in the Building,
and in no event shall any personal liability be asserted against Landlord and/or
its partners, officers, directors, agents or employees in connection with the
Lease nor shall any recourse be had to any other property or assets of Landlord
or such other parties. Landlord shall not be in default hereunder and Tenant
shall not have any remedy or cause of action unless Landlord fails to perform
any of its obligations hereunder within thirty (30) days after written notice
from Tenant specifying such failure (unless such performance will, due to the
nature of the obligation, require a period of time in excess of thirty (30)
days, then after such period of time as is reasonably necessary). All
obligations of Landlord hereunder shall be construed as covenants and not
conditions; and all such obligations will be binding upon Landlord only during
the period of its ownership of the Premises and not thereafter.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been executed as of the date and
year first above written.

                          TENANT FINISH-WORK: ALLOWANCE

         1. Except as set forth on this Exhibit, Tenant accepts the Premises
"AS-IS" and acknowledges that Landlord has no obligation to make or otherwise
pay for any improvements, alterations or repairs thereto.

         2. Landlord will have prepared the Working Drawings for the Premises.
Tenant will review and approve the Working Drawings within five (5) business
days following receipt thereof. As used herein, "Working Drawings" shall mean
the final working drawings approved by Landlord, as amended from time to time by
any approved changes thereto, and "Work" shall mean all improvements to be
constructed in accordance with and as indicated on the Working Drawings.
Approval by Landlord of the Working Drawings shall not be a representation or
warranty of Landlord that such drawings are adequate for any use, purpose, or
condition, or that such drawings comply with any applicable law or code, but
shall merely be the consent of Landlord to the performance of the Work. Tenant
shall, at Landlord's request, sign the Working Drawings to evidence its review
and approval thereof. All changes in the Work must receive the prior written
approval of Landlord, whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed; provided, however, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole and
absolute discretion if such alteration, physical addition or improvement affects
any mechanical systems or structural portions of the Premises or the Building,
and in the event of any such approved change Tenant shall, upon completion of
the Work, furnish Landlord with an accurate, reproducible "as-built" plan (e.g.,
sepia) of the improvements as constructed, which plan shall be incorporated into
this Lease by this reference for all purposes.

         3. Landlord shall obtain competitive bids from no less than three
general contractors who have been mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant.
Landlord will cause the Work to be performed by contractors and subcontractors
approved in writing by Landlord.

         4. Tenant shall bear the entire cost of performing the Work (including,
without limitation, space planning and construction document fees, design of the
Work and preparation of the Working Drawings, costs of construction labor and
materials, electrical usage during construction, additional janitorial services,
approved signage, related taxes and insurance costs, all of which costs are
herein collectively called the "Total Construction Costs") in excess of the
Construction Allowance (hereinafter defined). Upon approval of the Working
Drawings and selection of a contractor, Tenant shall promptly (a) execute a work
order agreement prepared by Landlord and approved by Tenant which identifies
such drawings, itemizes the Total Construction Costs and sets forth the
Construction Allowance, and (b) pay to Landlord 50% of the amount by which the
estimated Total Construction Costs exceed the Construction Allowance. Tenant
shall pay to Landlord, within 10 days after Landlord's delivery to Tenant of an
appropriate invoice, an amount equal to the Total Construction Costs (as
adjusted for any approved changes to the Work), less (i) the amount of the
payments already made by Tenant, (ii) the amount of the

                             EXHIBIT B - Page 1 of 2

<PAGE>

Construction Allowance, and (iii) the cost reasonably estimated by Landlord for
completing all "punch list" items; finally, upon completion of the punch list
items, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the costs incurred in completing the same.

         5. Landlord shall provide to Tenant a construction allowance (the
"Construction Allowance") equal to the lesser of (a) $20.00 per rentable square
foot in the Premises, as reduced by the Give-Back Premises (i.e., 17,095
rentable square feet), or (b) the Total Construction Costs, as adjusted for any
approved changes to the Work; however, if Tenant or its agent is managing the
performance of the Work, then Tenant shall not become entitled to full credit
for the Construction Allowance and Landlord shall withhold from the Construction
Allowance the equivalent of ten percent (10%) of the Total Construction Costs
until thirty (30) days have passed since the Work has been substantially
completed and Tenant has caused to be delivered to Landlord (i) a list of all
contractors, subcontractors and suppliers that performed the Work on or for the
Premises, (ii) all invoices from contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers
evidencing the cost of performing the Work, together with lien waivers from such
parties, and a consent of the surety to the finished Work (if applicable), (iii)
a certificate of occupancy from the appropriate governmental authority, if
applicable to the Work, or evidence of governmental inspection and approval of
the Work and (iv) an affidavit signed by Tenant stating that all of the bills
associated with the Total Construction Costs have been paid. Any unspent portion
of the Construction Allowance remaining as of October 1, 2004, shall be credited
against Tenant's next accruing payments of Basic Rental under the Lease.

         6. Landlord or its affiliate shall supervise the Work, make
disbursements required to be made to the contractor, and act as a liaison
between the contractor and Tenant and coordinate the relationship between the
Work, the Building, and the Building's systems.

         7. To the extent not inconsistent with this Exhibit, the Lease shall
govern the performance of the Work and the Landlord's and Tenant's respective
rights and obligations regarding the improvements installed pursuant thereto.

<PAGE>

                                    EXHIBIT C

                                EXTENSION OPTION

         1. Provided no Event of Default exists at the time of such election,
Tenant may renew this Lease for one (1) additional period of five (5) years on
the same terms provided in this Lease (except as set forth below), by delivering
written notice of ("Tenant's Notice") the exercise thereof to Landlord not later
than eleven (11) months prior to the end of the Term. On or before the
commencement date of the extended Term, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an
amendment to this Lease extending the Term on the same terms provided in this
Lease, except as follows:

         (a) The Basic Rental payable for each month during each such extended
Term shall be the prevailing rental rate in the Building and other comparable
buildings in the metropolitan area in which the Building is located, at the
commencement of such extended Term, for space of equivalent quality, size,
utility and location, with the length of the extended Term and the credit
standing of Tenant to be taken into account;

         (b) Tenant shall have no further renewal options unless expressly
granted by Landlord in writing; and

         (c) Landlord shall lease to Tenant the Premises in their then-current
condition, and Landlord shall not provide to Tenant any allowances (e.g., moving
allowance, construction allowance, and the like) or other tenant inducements.

         2. Within thirty (30) days following delivery of Tenant's Notice,
Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written notice ("Landlord's Notice")
specifying the Basic Rental rate per rentable square foot per annum for the
applicable additional term. Tenant shall have thirty (30) days following
delivery of Landlord's Notice to notify Landlord in writing ("Tenant's Renewal
Notice") of (i) Tenant's exercise of its right to renew the Lease at the Basic
Rental rate proposed by Landlord, or (ii) deliver to Landlord Tenant's
determination of the Basic Rental rate per rentable square foot per annum for
the applicable additional term. Upon Landlord's receipt of Tenant's
determination of the Basic Rental, both parties shall have the right for a
period of thirty (30) days to negotiate the Basic Rental rate for the additional
Term. If within ten (10) days following the expiration of the thirty (30) day
period following Tenant's submittal of its determination of the Basic Rental the
parties cannot agree for any or no reason (i.e., Landlord shall have no
liability to Tenant for failing to negotiate), then Tenant may, as its sole and
exclusive remedy, either (i) elect to accept Landlord's determination of the
Basic Rental or (ii) elect not to exercise its right to renew the Lease.
Tenant's failure to timely deliver Tenant's Renewal Notice shall be deemed
acceptance by Tenant of the Basic Rental rate proposed by Landlord.

         3. Tenant's rights under this Exhibit shall terminate if (i) this Lease

                 AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND SHARE EXCHANGE

         This is an AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND SHARE EXCHANGE, dated as of
May 7, 2004 (this "Agreement"), made by and among Daleen Holdings, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("Parent"), Parallel Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware
corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Acquisition Sub"), Daleen
Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), Behrman Capital II,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Behrman") and Strategic Entrepreneur Fund
II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("SEF"). Certain terms used in this
Agreement are defined in Section 10.03 below.

         Parent is a newly formed Delaware corporation that has been formed by
the Company for the purpose of entering into and consummating the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. Concurrent with the execution and delivery of
this Agreement, Quadrangle Capital Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership
("QCP"), Quadrangle Select Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership ("QSP"),
Quadrangle Capital Partners-A LP, a Delaware limited partnership ("QCP-A" and
collectively with QCP and QSP, "Quadrangle"), Behrman and SEF are entering into
an Investment Agreement (the "Investment Agreement"), pursuant to and subject to
the terms and conditions of which they have agreed to invest an aggregate of $30
million in cash in Parent in consideration of the issuance by Parent of shares
of Parent Series A PIK Preferred. Also concurrent with the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, Parent has agreed to purchase all outstanding shares
of the outstanding capital stock of Protek Telecommunications Solutions Limited,
a company organized in the United Kingdom ("Protek") pursuant to and subject to
the terms and conditions set forth in a Stock Purchase Agreement of even date
herewith (the "Protek Agreement"). Concurrent therewith, the Company is entering
into the Bridge Loan Facility with an operating subsidiary of Protek, and
Behrman is providing a bridge loan facility to the Company.

         Behrman and SEF desire to exchange their existing holdings of the
capital stock of the Company for a combination of shares of Parent PIK Preferred
and Parent Common Stock, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
herein (the "Share Exchange"). Upon consummation of the Share Exchange, the
parties further desire to cause Acquisition Sub to merge with and into the
Company, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein (the
"Merger"). These transactions are expected to have the effect of permitting the
Company to cease to be a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

         The respective boards of directors (or equivalent governing bodies) of
Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company, Behrman and SEF have approved and declared
advisable this Agreement, the Share Exchange and the Merger, upon the terms and
subject to the conditions hereof, whereby each Share not owned, directly or
indirectly, by the Company, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries,
excluding Shares held by persons who comply with all provisions of Delaware law
concerning the right of holders of Shares to dissent from the Merger and require
appraisal of their Shares, will be converted into the right to receive the
respective consideration provided for herein pursuant to the Merger. In
addition,

<PAGE>

certain stockholders of the Company have entered into Voting Agreements
(collectively, the "Voting Agreements"), with Quadrangle, providing, among other
things, that the stockholders party thereto shall vote all shares of the capital
stock of the Company held by them in favor of the Merger and the other
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

         Valuation Research Corporation, financial advisor to the Company, has
on the date hereof issued an opinion addressed to the Special Committee of the
Board of Directors of the Company for the benefit of the Board of Directors of
the Company and its stockholders as to the fairness, from a financial point of
view, of the consideration to be issued to the stockholders of the Company in
connection with the Merger.

         Parent, Acquisition Sub and the Company desire to make certain
representations, warranties and agreements in connection with the Share
Exchange, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement
and also to prescribe various conditions to the Share Exchange, the Merger and
the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

         In consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and
agreements herein contained, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Parent, Acquisition Sub,
the Company, Behrman and SEF hereby agree as follows:

                                    ARTICLE I

                        THE SHARE EXCHANGE AND THE MERGER

         SECTION 1.01      The Share Exchange.

         (a)      Provided that this Agreement shall not have been terminated in
accordance with Article VIII and the conditions set forth in Section 7.01 shall
have been satisfied (unless, to the extent permitted hereby, waived), on the
Closing Date, immediately prior to the Merger Closing, Behrman, SEF and Parent
shall consummate the Share Exchange (the "Share Exchange Closing") by making the
respective deliveries set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) following.
Notwithstanding consummation of the Share Exchange Closing, if for any reason
the Merger shall not occur or be deemed not to have occurred, the Share Exchange
Closing shall be deemed void and of no effect, and the parties shall use their
respective best efforts to reverse the deliveries set forth in paragraphs (b)
and (c) below.

         (b)      At the Share Exchange Closing, each of Behrman and SEF shall
deliver to Parent all shares of the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, par
value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "Daleen Series F Preferred Stock")
held by it (all such shares of Daleen Series F Preferred Stock held by Behrman
and SEF together, the "Exchanged Shares"), together with all certificates
representing the same, duly endorsed in blank or with duly executed stock powers
attached thereto, in proper form for transfer, free and clear of all Liens
together with payment of any Taxes imposed on the transfer of such Exchanged
Shares, and shall also deliver to Parent duly executed copies of the
Stockholders Agreement.

<PAGE>

         (c)      At the Share Exchange Closing, Parent shall issue to Behrman
and SEF in respect of each Exchanged Share,

                           (x) a number of shares of Parent PIK Preferred equal
                  to the result obtained by dividing (A) $5,000,000 by (B) the
                  product of the Parent PIK Value and the aggregate number of
                  Exchanged Shares, plus

                           (y) a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal
                  to the result obtained by dividing (A) the excess of (X) the
                  Series F Value times the aggregate number of Exchanged Shares
                  over (Y) $5,000,000, by (B) the product of the Parent Common
                  Stock Value and the aggregate number of Exchanged Shares;

in each case duly certificated in the names of Behrman and SEF as the respective
record holders thereof (collectively, the "Share Exchange Consideration");
provided, however, that certificates in respect of the Escrow Percentage of the
shares of Parent PIK Preferred included in the Share Exchange Consideration and
the Escrow Percentage of the shares of Parent Common Stock included in the Share
Exchange Consideration shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent as contemplated by
Section 2.05. The aggregate number of shares of Parent PIK Preferred and Parent
Common Stock issued to Behrman and SEF respectively in the Share Exchange will
be rounded down to the nearest whole share, without payment for any fractional
shares eliminated by such rounding. For purposes of this Agreement, "Parent PIK
Value" shall mean $100, and "Parent Common Stock Value" shall mean $25. The
"Series F Value" shall mean $34.28 per share of Daleen Series F Preferred Stock.

         (d)      Each of Behrman and SEF hereby represents, warrants and
covenants, severally and not jointly, both as of the date hereof and as of the
Share Exchange Closing, that (i) it holds record and beneficial title to the
number of shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the
"Daleen Common Stock") and Daleen Series F Preferred Stock set forth next to its
name on Exhibit A, free and clear of all Liens other than Liens created by this
Agreement, (ii) upon delivery of the Share Exchange Consideration, Parent will
have good, legal and marketable title to the representing entity's Exchanged
Shares, free and clear of all Liens, (iii) except for this Agreement and such
representing entity's Voting Agreement, none of such entity's Exchanged Shares
is subject to any voting trust, proxy or other contract, agreement or
arrangement, including any such contract, agreement or arrangement relating to
the voting, dividend rights, liquidation rights, redemption rights or
disposition of any such Exchanged Shares, (iv) there are no subscriptions,
options, warrants, calls, preemptive rights or rights of conversion or other
rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments relating to the Exchanged Shares
obligating such representing entity to sell or transfer any Exchanged Shares and
(v) it shall not at any time prior to Closing (or earlier termination of this
Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof) enter into or effect any
contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction that would reasonably be
expected to have the effect of causing any of the foregoing representations and
warranties to be incorrect in any material respect.

                                   ARTICLE II

               CONVERSION OF SECURITIES; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

         SECTION 2.01. Conversion Of Securities. At the Effective Time, by
virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Acquisition Sub, the
Company or the holders of any of the following securities:

         (a)      Each Share of Daleen Series F Preferred Stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Shares to be
canceled pursuant to Section 2.01(d) (including Exchanged Shares) and other than
Dissenting Shares) shall convert into the right to receive (subject to the
escrow provided for in Section 2.05):

                  (i) cash per share equal to the result obtained by dividing
(x) the result obtained by subtracting from $4,600,000 the sum of all amounts to
be paid under paragraph (c) of this Section (assuming for purposes of such
calculation that there are no Dissenting Shares), by (y) the aggregate number of
shares of Daleen Series F Preferred Stock held by record holders (other than
Parent) that have not duly and timely delivered an Equity Election Notice; plus

                  (ii) a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Parent
Common Stock equal to the result obtained by dividing (x) the excess of the
Series F Value over the per share amount resulting from the calculation in
clause (i) immediately preceding, by (y) the Parent Common Stock Value;

provided, however, that in the event that an Equity Election has been validly
made and not withdrawn by the record holder of a share of Daleen Series F
Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 2.02, such share shall convert
instead into the right to receive that number of fully paid and nonassessable
shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the result obtained by dividing the
Series F Value by the Parent Common Stock Value, subject to the escrow provided
for in Section 2.05.

         (b)      [Reserved].

         (c)      Each share of Daleen Common Stock issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Shares to be canceled
pursuant to Section 2.01(d) and other than Dissenting Shares) shall convert into
the right to receive $0.0384 in cash

                                     - 5 -

<PAGE>

(subject, in the case of shares of Daleen Common Stock held by Behrman and SEF,
to the escrow described in Section 2.05 below).

         (d)      Each share of the capital stock of the Company ("Share") held
in the treasury of the Company and each Share owned by Parent or any direct or
indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent or of the Company immediately prior
to the Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion
thereof, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto.

         (e)      Each share of common stock of Acquisition Sub issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the
Surviving Corporation.

         (f)      As of the Effective Time, all Shares outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares to be cancelled pursuant to
Section 2.01(d)) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be
canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate or
certificates which prior thereto represented Shares shall cease to have any
rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive, for each Share
represented by such certificate, the respective consideration provided for in
Section 2.01(a), (b) or (c) ("Merger Consideration"), as the case may be,
without interest, or, if such holder is a Dissenting Stockholder, the rights, if
any, afforded to such holder under Section 262 of the DGCL.

         (g)      Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
any Shares held by a person (a "Dissenting Stockholder") who shall have demanded
and perfected a right to receive payment of the fair value of such Shares
pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL ("Dissenting Shares") shall not be converted
as described in Section 2.01(a), (b) or (c), as the case may be, unless such
holder fails to comply with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL or
withdraws or otherwise loses its right to receive such fair value payment. At
the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part
of the Dissenting Stockholder, all Dissenting Shares shall be cancelled and
cease to exist and shall represent only the right to receive only those rights
provided under the DGCL. If, after the Effective Time, such Dissenting
Stockholder fails to comply with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL or
withdraws or loses his or her right to receive such fair value payment, such
Dissenting Stockholder's Shares shall no longer be considered Dissenting Shares
for the purposes of this Agreement and shall thereupon be deemed to have been
converted into and to have become exchangeable for, at the Effective Time, the
right to receive for each such Share the respective Merger Consideration
provided for in Section 2.01(a), (b) or (c), as the case may be, without
interest. The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any demands to
receive payment of fair value of shares received by the Company and (ii) the
opportunity to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with
respect to such demands. The Company shall not, without the prior written
consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle, offer to settle
or otherwise negotiate, any such demands.

         SECTION 2.02 Equity Election.

                                     - 6 -

<PAGE>

         (a)      Each record holder of Daleen Series F Preferred Stock as of
the record date for the Company Stockholders Meeting shall be entitled to make a
joint election (a "Equity Election") to receive (subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement) shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with
the proviso to Section 2.01(a) (the "Equity Election Consideration"). Such
Equity Election may be made on or prior to the Election Date to receive the
Equity Election Consideration, on the basis hereinafter set forth.

         (b)      Prior to the mailing of the Company Proxy Statement, Parent
and Acquisition Sub shall appoint SunTrust Bank or another national bank or
trust company mutually acceptable to Parent and the Company to act as exchange
agent (the "Exchange Agent") for the payment of the Merger Consideration, and
Parent shall enter into an exchange agent agreement with the Exchange Agent in
form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company.

         (c)      The Company shall, subject to any required clearance by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), prepare and mail a Equity
Election Notice, which form shall be subject to the reasonable approval of
Acquisition Sub (the "Equity Election Notice"), with the Company Proxy Statement
to the record holders of Shares as of the record date for the Company
Stockholders' Meeting, which Equity Election Notice shall be used by each holder
of Daleen Series F Preferred Stock that wishes to elect to receive the Equity
Election Consideration upon conversion of such holder's shares of Daleen Series
F Preferred Stock in the Merger, subject to the provisions of this Article II.
The Company will use its best efforts to make the Equity Election Notice and the
Proxy Statement available to all persons who become holders of Daleen Series F
Preferred Stock during the period between such record date and the Election Date
referred to below. Any such holder's election to receive the Equity Election
Consideration shall have been properly made only if the Exchange Agent shall
have received at its designated office, by 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the
business day (the "Election Date") preceding the date of the Company
Stockholders' Meeting, a Equity Election Notice properly completed and signed by
such holder. Without limitation of the foregoing, in order to be deemed properly
completed and submitted by a holder such holder must duly execute any joinder to
the Stockholders Agreement included therein.

         (d)      Any Equity Election Notice may be revoked by the record holder
submitting it to the Exchange Agent only by written notice of such holder
received by the Exchange Agent prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
Election Date.

         (e)      The determination of the Exchange Agent shall be binding
whether or not any Equity Election has been properly made or revoked pursuant to
this Section 2.02 and when elections and revocations were received by it. If the
Exchange Agent determines that any Equity Election was not properly made, the
respective Shares shall be converted in the Merger into the right to receive
cash and shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.01(a). The
Exchange Agent shall also make all computations contemplated by Section 2.01(a),
and any such computation shall be conclusive and binding on the holders of
Shares. The Exchange Agent may, with the mutual agreement of the Company,
Acquisition Sub and Parent, make such rules as are consistent with this Section
2.02 for the

                                     - 7 -

<PAGE>

implementation of the elections provided for herein as shall be necessary or
desirable fully to effect such elections.

         SECTION 2.03. Surrender of Shares; Transfer Books.

         (a)      Exchange Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent
shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Shares,
the Merger Consideration for exchange in accordance with this Article II
(subject to the escrow described in Section 2.05 below). The cash portion of the
Merger Consideration shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as directed by
Parent. Any net profit resulting from, or interest or income produced by, such
investments will be payable to Parent.

         (b)      Exchange Procedures. Promptly and as soon as practicable after
the Effective Time, each holder of an outstanding certificate or certificates
which prior thereto represented Shares shall, upon surrender to the Exchange
Agent of such certificate or certificates and acceptance thereof by the Exchange
Agent, be entitled to certificates representing the number of full shares of
Parent Common Stock, if any, to be received by the holder thereof pursuant to
this Agreement and the amount of cash, if any, which the holder of such shares
has the right to receive pursuant to this Agreement and the cash, if any,
payable in lieu of any fractional shares, subject to the escrow provided for in
Section 2.05. The Exchange Agent shall accept such certificates upon compliance
with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to
effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices.
After the Effective Time, there shall be no further transfer on the records of
the Company or its transfer agent of certificates representing Shares which have
been converted pursuant to this Agreement into the right to receive the Merger
Consideration, and if such certificates are presented to the Company for
transfer, they shall be canceled against delivery of cash and/or certificates
for shares of Parent Common Stock, as the case may be. If any certificate for
such Parent Common Stock is to be issued in, or if cash is to be remitted to, a
name other than that in which the certificate for Shares surrendered for
exchange is registered, it shall be a condition of such exchange that the
certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed, with signature
guaranteed, or otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the person
requesting such exchange shall pay to Parent or its transfer agent any transfer
or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of certificates for such
Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder of the certificate
surrendered, or establish to the satisfaction of Parent or its transfer agent
that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as
contemplated by this Section 2.03(b), each certificate for Shares which have
been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall be
deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to
receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration as contemplated by and
determined in accordance with Sections 2.01 and 2.02. No interest will be paid
or will accrue on any cash payable as Merger Consideration or in lieu of any
fractional shares of Parent Common Stock.

         (c)      Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends
or other distributions with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock with a
record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any
unsurrendered certificate for Shares with

                                     - 8 -

<PAGE>

respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock, if any, to be received in respect
thereof and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be paid to any
such holder pursuant to Section 2.03(e) until the surrender of such certificate
in accordance with this Article II. Subject to the effect of applicable laws,
following surrender of any such certificate, there shall be paid to the holder
of the certificate representing whole shares of Parent Common Stock issued in
connection therewith, without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender the
amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Common Stock
to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.03(e) and the
proportionate amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date
after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of
Parent Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the proportionate
amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the
Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such
surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock;
provided, however, that dividends or other distributions in respect of shares of
Parent Common Stock held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 2.05
shall not be delivered to the record holder thereof, but shall instead be
delivered to the Escrow Agent to be held and applied in accordance with the
Escrow Agreement.

         (d)      No Further Ownership Rights in Shares. All Merger
Consideration paid or delivered upon the surrender for exchange of certificates
representing Shares in accordance with the terms of this Article II (including
any cash paid pursuant to Section 2.03(e)) shall be deemed to have been issued
and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Shares exchanged
therefor theretofore represented by such certificates.

         (e)      No Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing
fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the
Merger, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof
to vote or to any rights of a shareholder of Parent after the Merger. Each
record holder of Shares exchanged pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise
have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock
(after taking into account all Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive,
in lieu thereof, a cash payment (without interest) in lieu of such fractional
share in an amount equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the
Parent Common Stock Value.

         (f)      Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Merger
Consideration deposited with the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03
(the "Exchange Fund") which remains undistributed to the holders of the
certificates formerly representing Shares on the date that is 180 days after the
Effective Time shall be promptly delivered to Parent, and any holders of Shares
prior to the Merger who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall
thereafter look only to Parent and only as general creditors thereof for payment
of their claim for cash, if any, shares of Parent Common Stock, if any, any cash
in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, and any dividends or
distributions with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock, as applicable, to
which such holders may be entitled.

         (g)      No Liability. None of Acquisition Sub, Parent, the Company nor
the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any shares of
Parent Common

                                     - 9 -

<PAGE>

Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash from the
Exchange Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable
abandoned property, escheat or similar law. If any certificates representing
Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time shall not have been surrendered
prior to the date that is the first anniversary of the Effective Time (or
immediately prior to such earlier date on which any cash, if any, any cash in
lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, any dividends or distributions
with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock in respect of such certificate
would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity,
any such cash, dividends or distributions in respect of such certificate shall,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of Parent, free
and clear of all claims or interests of any person previously entitled thereto.

         (h)      Withholding Rights. Each of the Surviving Corporation and
Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, and to direct the Exchange
Agent to so deduct and withhold, from the consideration otherwise payable
pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Shares such amounts as it is
required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or any provision of
state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by
the Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts
shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the
holder of such Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was
made by the Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case may be.

         SECTION 2.04. Effect of the Merger on Stock Options and Warrants.

         (a)      As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and
corporate actions taken concurrent with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and without any further action on the part of Acquisition Sub, the
Company or the holders thereof, each option to purchase capital stock of the
Company listed on Schedule 2.04 to the Company Disclosure Schedule (the "Company
Options"), whether or not exercisable, whether or not vested, and whether or not
performance-based, outstanding under the Company's stock plans listed on
Schedule 2.04 to the Company Disclosure Schedule (collectively, the "Company
Stock Option Plans"), shall, to the extent not exercised between the date hereof
and Closing, be terminated. The Company has, concurrent with the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, amended the terms of each grant under such Company
Stock Option Plan to provide that vesting and exercise of each such Company
Option shall accelerate effective as of the Closing Date, and that, unless
exercised by written notice of exercise delivered prior to the Closing Date (and
conditioned solely on the occurrence of Closing), such Company Option shall be
terminated immediately prior to the Effective Time without further action or the
Company or the holder thereof. Such amendments are effective to ensure that,
following the Effective Time, no current or former employee, director,
consultant or other person shall have any option to purchase Shares or any other
equity interests or any phantom stock options or stock appreciation rights in
the Company under any Company Stock Option Plan to require the Company to
purchase Shares for his or her benefit or shall have any right to acquire or
receive any securities of the Surviving Corporation or any consideration except
as contemplated by this Section 2.04(a).

                                     - 10 -

<PAGE>

         (b) As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and the consents
set forth in the Voting Agreements and without any action on the part of
Acquisition Sub, the Company or the holders thereof, all outstanding warrants of
the Company shall be terminated and cancelled.

         SECTION 2.05. Escrow. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions
of an escrow agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit B (the "Escrow
Agreement"), (a) the following portions of each of the aggregate cash and shares
of Parent Common Stock deliverable to the Series F Holders under Section 2 and
(b) the cash deliverable to Behrman and SEF in respect of their shares of Daleen
Common Stock shall not be delivered to such persons at Closing, but shall
instead be delivered to be held in escrow in accordance with the terms of the
Escrow Agreement:

         (i)      an aggregate of 12.5% (the "Escrow Percentage") shall be
delivered to the Escrow Agent to be held as a general escrow account securing
the indemnification obligations of the Series F Holders under Section 9.01(a)
(the "General Escrow");

         (ii)     if, but only if, any Specified Litigation is pending as of the
Effective Time, 6.49% shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent to be held as a
special escrow account securing the indemnification obligations of the Series F
Holders under Section 9.01(d) (the "Special Escrow"); and

         (iii)    all cash that would otherwise be deliverable to Behrman and
SEF in respect of their shares of Daleen Common Stock shall be delivered to the
Escrow Agent to be held as an escrow account securing the indemnification
obligations of Behrman and SEF under Sections 9.01(a) and 9.01(d) (the "Behrman
Escrow").

Certificates in respect of the shares so delivered into escrow shall be issued
in the name of the respective Series F Holder shall be issued in the name of
such holder as the record holder thereof, but shall be delivered to and held by
the Escrow Agent as provided in the Escrow Agreement.

         (b)      Initial Release. If, within thirty (30) calendar days of the
receipt by Parent of its audited financial statements for fiscal year ending
December 31, 2004 (which audited financial statements Parent shall make all
commercially reasonable efforts to have completed by March 31, 2005), at least
seventy-five percent (75%) of each of the cash and shares of Parent Common Stock
that were delivered to the Escrow Agent at Closing and allocated to the General
Escrow remain in escrow and are not otherwise the subject of any good faith
claim made by a Parent Indemnitee pursuant to Article 9, then fifty percent
(50%) of each of the cash and shares of Parent Common Stock that were delivered
to the Escrow Agent at Closing and allocated to the General Escrow and are not
the subject of a good faith Parent Indemnitee claim pursuant to Article 9 shall
be released to the Series F Holders pro rata to their interests therein. For the
purpose of avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged for purposes of this Section
2.05(b) that in respect of any third party claim a Parent Indemnitee shall have
a good faith claim in respect of the full amount (including

                                     - 11 -

<PAGE>

Parent's reasonable estimate of attorneys fees and costs) claimed by such third
party (or, if no specific amount is claimed, Parent's good faith determination
of such Parent Indemnitee's maximum exposure if all claims presented by such
third party claimant were to be finally determined adversely to such Parent
Indemnitee).

         (c)      Release Following Survival Period. If, at any time after the
thirtieth (30th) day after the receipt by Parent of its audited financial
statements for fiscal year ending December 31, 2005 (which audited financial
statements Parent shall make all commercially reasonable efforts to have
completed by March 31, 2006), any portion of each of the cash and shares of
Parent Common Stock held in the General Escrow is not the subject of a good
faith Parent Indemnitee claim pursuant to Article 9, such portion shall be
released to the Series F Holders pro rata to their interests therein.

         (d)      Release to Parent Indemnitees. Assets held in the General
Escrow or in Behrman Escrow with respect to a good faith claim of any Parent
Indemnitee shall be released to such Parent Indemnitee upon the earlier of (x)
the 20th business day after delivery by a Buyer Indemnitee of a written claim

                  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

         The Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Acquisition
Sub that:

         SECTION 3.01. Organization and Qualification; Subsidiaries. Each of the
Company and each subsidiary of the Company (a "Subsidiary") is an entity duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation and has the requisite power
(corporate or otherwise) and authority to own, lease and operate its properties
and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted, except where the
failure to be so organized, existing or in good standing or to have such power
and authority would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely
to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. The Company and each Subsidiary is
duly qualified or licensed as a foreign corporation (or other business entity)
to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the
character of the properties owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of its
business makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except for any failure
to be so qualified or licensed and in good standing that would not, individually
or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Company Material Adverse
Effect. A true and complete list of all the Subsidiaries, together with the
jurisdiction of incorporation or formation of each Subsidiary, the ownership of
the outstanding capital stock or other equity interests of such Subsidiary and
the percentage of the outstanding capital stock or other equity interests of
each Subsidiary owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary, is set forth in
Schedule 3.01 of the separate Disclosure Schedule previously delivered by the
Company to Parent (the "Company Disclosure Schedule"). Except as disclosed in
such Schedule 3.01, the Company does not directly or indirectly own any equity
or similar interest in, or any interest convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable for, any equity or similar interest in, any corporation,
partnership, joint venture or other business association or entity. The Company
wholly owns, directly or indirectly, and has full voting and disposition power
over all of the equity interests of each of its Subsidiaries. No stock
appreciation rights, phantom stock, profit participation or other similar rights
with respect to any Subsidiary or any capital stock of any Subsidiary are
authorized or outstanding.

         SECTION 3.02. Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws. The Company has
heretofore furnished to Parent (i) a complete and correct copy of the
Certificate of Incorporation and the By-laws or equivalent organizational
documents, each as amended to date, of the Company and each Subsidiary; (ii) the
minute books of the Company and each

                                     - 13 -

<PAGE>

Subsidiary (which contain complete and accurate records of all meetings and
accurately reflect all other corporate action of the stockholders and board of
directors (including committees thereof) of the Company and its Subsidiaries)
and (iii) the stock certificate books and stock transfer ledgers of the Company
and its Subsidiaries. Each such Certificate of Incorporation, By-laws and
equivalent organizational documents is in full force and effect. Neither the
Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any provision of its Certificate
of Incorporation, By-laws or equivalent organizational documents.

         SECTION 3.03. Capitalization. As of the date hereof, the authorized
capital stock of the Company consists of (i) 200,000,000 shares of Daleen Common
Stock, $0.01 par value per share, of which 46,929,372 shares are issued and
outstanding as of the date hereof; and (ii) 21,877,236 shares of Preferred
Stock, $0.01 par value per share, of which (A) 3,000,000 shares are designated
as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (with no shares issued and outstanding);
(B) 1,250,000 shares are designated as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
(with no shares issued and outstanding); (C) 1,222,222 shares are designated as
Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (with no shares issued and outstanding);
(D) 4,221,846 shares are designated as Series D Convertible Preferred Stock
(with no shares issued and outstanding); (E) 686,553 shares are designated as
Series D-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (with no shares issued and outstanding);
(F) 1,496,615 shares are designated as Series E Convertible Preferred Stock
(with no shares issued and outstanding); and (G) 588,312 shares are designated
as Series F Preferred Stock (with 449,237 shares issued and outstanding as of
the date hereof). Set forth on Schedule 3.03 is a description of the grant date,
number of shares available under, strike or exercise price and holder of each
outstanding grant of Company Options or any other rights to acquire Shares
pursuant to the Company Stock Option Plans. Each grant of Company Stock Options
or other rights to acquire Common Stock under any of the Company Stock Option
Plans is evidenced by a Stock Option Agreement, each in the form previously
provided to the Parent. Except for rights to acquire Common Stock under the
Company Stock Option Plans as set forth in this Section 3.03 and for the
warrants set forth on Schedule 3.03 (which sets forth the holders of record of
such securities), there are no options, warrants or other rights, agreements,
arrangements or commitments of any character relating to the issued or unissued
capital stock of the Company or any Subsidiary or obligating the Company or any
Subsidiary to issue or sell any shares of capital stock of, or other equity
interests in, the Company or any Subsidiary. All of the issued and outstanding
Shares have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid,
nonassessable and were not issued in violation of any preemptive rights or
comparable rights of any Person to acquire such shares. All Shares subject to
issuance as aforesaid, upon issuance on the terms and conditions specified in
the instruments pursuant to which they are issuable, will be duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Except as contemplated by this
Agreement and as set forth on Schedule 3.03, there are no outstanding
commitments, agreements, proxies, voting trusts, arrangements or undertakings of
any kind to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which
any of them is bound obligating the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to
dispose or vote any shares of capital stock or other equity securities of the
Company or of any of its Subsidiaries and the Company is not bound by any debt
agreements or instruments which grant any rights to vote (contingent or
otherwise) on matters on which shareholders of the Company may vote. Except as
set forth on

                                     - 14 -

<PAGE>

Schedule 3.03, there are no outstanding contractual obligations of the Company
or any Subsidiary to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any Shares or any
capital stock of or any equity interests in, any Subsidiary. Except as set forth
on Schedule 3.03, each outstanding share of capital stock or other equity
interest of each Subsidiary is duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and each such share or other equity interest owned by the Company
or any Subsidiary is free and clear of all security interests, liens, claims,
pledges, options, rights of first refusal, agreements, limitations on the
Company's or such other Subsidiary's voting rights, charges and other
encumbrances of any nature whatsoever.

         SECTION 3.04. Authority Relative to This Agreement. The Company has all
necessary corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement,
to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the Merger and the other
transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement
by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the Merger and the other
transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized by all
necessary corporate action and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the
Company are necessary to authorize this Agreement or to consummate the Merger
(other than, with respect to the Merger, the stockholder approvals described in
Section 3.20 and the filing and recordation of appropriate merger documents as
required by the DGCL) and the other transactions contemplated hereby. This
Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company and,
assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by Parent and Acquisition
Sub, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company,
enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

         SECTION 3.05. No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.

         (a) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company do not,
and the performance of this Agreement by the Company will not (i) conflict with
or violate the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws or equivalent
organizational documents of the Company or any Subsidiary; (ii) conflict with or
violate any domestic (federal, state or local) or foreign law, rule, regulation,
order, judgment or decree (collectively, "Laws") applicable to the Company or
any Subsidiary or by which any property or asset of the Company or any
Subsidiary is bound or affected, except for such conflicts or violations which
would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to result in a
Company Material Adverse Effect or impair the ability of the Company to perform
its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect; (iii) result in a
conflict with, a breach or violation of, a default under (or an event which with
notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) or the triggering of any
payment or other material obligations to any of the Company's or any of its
Subsidiaries' present or former employees pursuant to any of the Company's or
any of its Subsidiaries' existing employee benefit plans (as set forth in
Section 3.11) or any grant or award made under any of the foregoing, other than
the accelerated vesting of options under any of the Company Stock Option Plans,
or (iv) except as specified in Schedule 3.05(a), result in any breach of or
constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both
would become a default) under, or give to others any right of termination,
amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the

                                     - 15 -

<PAGE>

creation of a lien or other encumbrance on any property or asset of the Company
or any Subsidiary pursuant to any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, contract,
agreement, lease, license, permit, franchise or other instrument or obligation
to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by which the Company or any
Subsidiary or any property or asset of the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or
affected, except for any such breaches, defaults or other occurrences which
would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to
result in a Company Material Adverse Effect.

         (b) None of the execution or delivery or performance of this Agreement
by the Company, the consummation by the Company of the Merger or the other
transactions contemplated hereby, compliance by the Company with any of the
provisions of this Agreement or the performance of this Agreement by the Company
do or will require any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing
with or notification to, any Governmental Entity, except (i) (A) for applicable
requirements, if any, of the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), including the SEC Transaction Filings, (B) such
filings and approvals as may be required by any applicable state securities,
blue sky or takeover laws, and (C) the filing and recordation of appropriate
merger documents as required by the DGCL; (ii) as specified in Schedule 3.05(b);
and (iii) where failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or
permits, or to make such filings or notifications, would not by the terms of the
applicable requirement prevent or delay consummation of the Merger or any other
transaction contemplated hereby, would not, individually or in the aggregate,
have or reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect and
would not impair the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under
this Agreement in any material respect.

         SECTION 3.06. Permits. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.06-1, the
Company and each Subsidiary is in possession of all franchises, grants,
authorizations, licenses, permits, easements, variances, exceptions, consents,
certificates, approvals and orders necessary for the Company and each Subsidiary
to own, lease and operate its properties or to carry on its business as it is
now being conducted (the "Company Permits"), and no suspension or cancellation
of any of the Company Permits is pending or, to the knowledge of the Company,
threatened, except where the failure to have, or the suspension or cancellation
of, any of the Company Permits would not, individually or in the aggregate, have
or reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. Set forth
on Schedule 3.06-2 is a list of those Company Permits, the loss or suspension of
any of which could, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be
expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary is in conflict with, or in default or violation of, (i) any Laws,
including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and related regulations, applicable
to the Company or any Subsidiary or by which any property or asset of the
Company or any Subsidiary is bound or affected; (ii) any of the Company Permits;

license, permit, franchise or other instrument or obligation to which the
Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by which the Company or any Subsidiary
or any property or asset of the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or affected,
except for any such conflicts, defaults or violations that would not,
individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to have a
Company Material Adverse Effect.

         SECTION 3.07. SEC Filings; Financial Statements.

         (a) The Company has filed all forms, reports and documents required to
be filed by it with the SEC since December 31, 2001 (the "SEC Filings"), and has
heretofore made available to Parent, in the form filed with the SEC and as
amended prior to the date hereof, (i) its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2003; (ii) all proxy statements relating to the
Company's meetings of stockholders (whether annual or special) held since
January 1, 2003; and (iii) all other forms, reports and other registration
statements filed by the Company with the SEC since January 1, 2003 (the forms,
reports and other documents referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above
being referred to herein, collectively, as the "Company SEC Reports"). As of
their respective dates, the SEC Filings (i) were prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the Exchange Act and the Securities Act, as the case may be, and
the rules and regulations thereunder including, without limitation, those
amendments to the federal securities laws effected by, and those regulations
adopted in accordance with, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 to the extent
applicable thereto; (ii) did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading; and (iii) did not omit any documents
required to be filed as exhibits thereto. No Subsidiary is required to file any
form, report or other document with the SEC.

         (b) Each of (a) the consolidated financial statements (including, in
each case, any notes thereto) contained in the SEC Filings and (b) the unaudited
balance sheet of the Company attached as Exhibit C hereto (the "Interim Balance
Sheet") was prepared in accordance with GAAP (except as may be indicated in the
notes, if any, thereto), and each fairly presented the consolidated financial
position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company and the
consolidated Subsidiaries as of the respective dates thereof and for the
respective periods indicated therein in accordance with GAAP (subject, in the
case of unaudited statements, to the absence of notes thereto and to normal and
recurring quarter-end adjustments which were not material in amount).

         (c) With respect to each Annual Report on Form 10-K and each Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q included in the Company SEC Reports, the financial
statements and other financial information included in such reports fairly
present (within the meaning of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) in all material
respects the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the
Company and its Subsidiaries as of, and for, the periods presented in the
Company SEC Reports. The reports of the Company's independent auditors regarding
the Company's consolidated financial statements in the SEC Filings have not been
withdrawn, supplemented or modified, and none of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries has received any communication from its independent auditors
concerning any such withdrawal, supplement or modification.

         (d) The Company's principal executive officer and its principal
financial officer have disclosed, based on their most recent evaluation, to the
Company's auditors and the audit committee of the Board of Directors of the
Company (i) all significant deficiencies in

                                     - 17 -

<PAGE>

the design or operation of internal controls which could adversely affect the
Company's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data and
have identified for the Company's auditors any material weaknesses in internal
controls and (ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management
or other employees who have a significant role in the Company's internal
controls.

         (e) The Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and
procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-14 under the Exchange Act); such
disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material
information relating to the Company, including its consolidated Subsidiaries, is
made known to the Company's principal executive officer and its principal
financial officer by others within those entities, particularly during the
periods in which the periodic reports required under the exchange Act are being
prepared; and, to the Company's knowledge, such disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in timely alerting the Company's principal executive
officer and its principal financial officer to material information required to
be included in the Company's periodic reports required under the Exchange Act.

         (f) Except as and to the extent set forth on the consolidated balance
sheet of the Company and the consolidated Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003,
including the notes thereto (the "Company 2003 Balance Sheet"), neither the
Company nor any Subsidiary has any liability or obligation of any nature
(whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) required by GAAP to be set
forth on a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries,
except for liabilities and obligations (i) disclosed in any Company SEC Report;
(ii) incurred since December 31, 2003 in the Ordinary Course; (iii) incurred in
connection with the filing of the Company's preliminary proxy statement of
January 28, 2004 relating to a proposed reverse stock split, or (iv) incurred
pursuant to or as contemplated by this Agreement (including Company Transaction
Expenses).

         (g) The Company has heretofore made available to Parent complete and
correct copies of all amendments and modifications that have not been filed by
the Company with the SEC to all agreements, documents and other instruments that
previously had been filed by the Company with the SEC and are currently in
effect, and has made available to Parent complete and unredacted copies of
exhibits, if any, that were filed with any Company SEC Report in redacted form.
Such amendments, modifications and agreements are identified on Schedule
3.07(g).

         SECTION 3.08. Disclosure Documents. Neither the proxy statement
relating to the special meeting of the Company's stockholders to approve the
Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby (the "Company Proxy
Statement") nor the Company's Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3
(the "13E-3" and, together with the Proxy Statement, the "SEC Transaction
Filings") will, at the respective time any such SEC Transaction Filing
(including any amendments or supplements thereto) is filed with the SEC, contain
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. At the respective times when they are filed with the SEC, each SEC
Transaction Filing (in each case, including any

                                     - 18 -

<PAGE>

amendments or supplements thereto) will comply as to form in all material
respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act, and the rules and
regulations thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no
representation or warranty with respect to any information supplied by
Quadrangle, Behrman, SEF, Protek or any of their respective representatives for
inclusion in any SEC Transaction Filing (including any amendments or supplements
thereto).

         SECTION 3.09. Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Since December 31,
2003, except as contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction
Agreement or as disclosed in any Company SEC Report or set forth in Schedule
3.09, the Company and the Subsidiaries have conducted their businesses in the
Ordinary Course and there has not been (a) any event or events having, or
reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material
Adverse Effect, (b) any revaluation by the Company of any asset (including,
without limitation, any writing down of the value of inventory or writing off of

consistent with past practice, (c) any entry by the Company or any Subsidiary
into any commitment or transaction except in the ordinary course of business and
consistent with past practice, (d) any declaration, setting aside or payment of
any dividend or distribution in respect of any capital stock of the Company or
any redemption, purchase or other acquisition of any of its securities, (e) any
split, combination or reclassification of any of its capital stock or any
issuance or the authorization of any issuance of any other securities in respect
of, in lieu of or in substitution for shares of its capital stock, (f) except
insofar as may have been disclosed in the SEC Filings or required by a change in
GAAP, any change in accounting methods, principles or practices, (g) any making
or revocation of any material Tax elections or any settlement or compromises of
any material federal, state, foreign or local Tax liability or any waivers or
extensions of the statute of limitations in respect of such Taxes, (h) any
making of loans, advances or capital contributions to, or investments in, any
Person or payment of any fees or expenses to any of the Company's shareholders

(j) any discharge or satisfaction of any Lien, or payment of any obligation or
liability (fixed or contingent), except in the Ordinary Course and which, in the
aggregate, would not be material to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a
whole; (k) any cancellation or compromises of any debt or claim or amendment,
cancellation, termination relinquishment, waiver or release of any contract or
right except in the Ordinary Course and which, in the aggregate, would not be

delay in making any capital expenditure for an approved capital project as set

capital additions or betterments in excess of $100,000 individually or $250,000
in the aggregate; (m) any incurrence of any indebtedness for borrowed money in
an amount in excess of $25,000 in the aggregate; (n) any grant of any license or

         SECTION 3.10. Absence of Litigation. Except as disclosed in any Company

proceeding, compliance review or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of
the Company, threatened against the Company or any Subsidiary, or any property

likely to have a Company Material Adverse Effect or to impair the Company's
ability to consummate the transactions contemplated under this Agreement or (b)
seeks to delay or prevent the consummation of the Share Exchange, the Merger or
the other transactions contemplated hereby. Except as disclosed in any Company
SEC Report or Schedule 3.10, as of the date, neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary nor any property or asset of the Company or any Subsidiary is subject
to any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award having
or reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company
Material Adverse Effect.

duly qualified or licensed as a foreign corporation to do business, and is in
good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned,
leased or operated by it or the

                                     - 29 -

Material Adverse Effect.

shall not recommend acceptance of such tender or exchange offer unless, in the
good faith judgment of the board of directors of the Company, after consultation
with independent legal counsel, failure to recommend acceptance would constitute
a violation of its fiduciary duties to the Company's stockholders under
applicable law; or (iii) failing to make or withdrawing or modifying its
recommendation of acceptance of the Share Exchange or the Merger following the
making of an unsolicited, bona fide written proposal relating to a Competing
Transaction if the board of directors of the Company, after consultation with
independent legal counsel (who may be the Company's regularly engaged
independent legal counsel) determines in good faith that such action is
necessary for the board of directors of the Company to comply with its fiduciary
duties to stockholders under applicable law and the board of directors of the
Company determines in good faith, based on the written opinion of a nationally
recognized financial advisor, that such Competing Transaction is reasonably
likely to be more favorable to the Company's stockholders from a financial point
of view than the Share Exchange, the Merger and the other transactions
contemplated hereby. The Company agrees not to release any third party from, or
waive any provision of, any confidentiality or standstill agreement to which the
Company is a party. For purposes of this Agreement, "Competing Transaction"
shall mean: (i) any merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination,
liquidation, recapitalization or other similar transaction involving the Company
or any Subsidiary; (ii) any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or
other disposition of fifteen percent (25%) or more of the assets of the Company
and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in a single transaction or series of
transactions; (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer for fifteen (25%) or more
of the Shares or the filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act
in connection therewith; (iv) any person having acquired beneficial ownership or
the right to acquire beneficial ownership of, or any "group" (as such term is
defined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder) having been formed which beneficially owns or has the
right to acquire beneficial ownership of, fifteen (25%) or more of the Shares;
or (v) any public announcement of a proposal, plan or intention to do any of the
foregoing or any agreement to engage in any of the foregoing. In addition to the
other obligations of the Company set forth in this Section 6.05, the Company
shall promptly advise Parent orally and in writing of any request for
information or other inquiry that the Company reasonably believes could lead to
a Competing Transaction, the terms and conditions of any such request or inquiry
(including any changes thereto) and the identity of

                                     - 39 -

<PAGE>

the person making any such request or inquiry. The Company shall (i) promptly
keep Parent fully informed of the status and details (including any change to
the terms thereof) of any such request or inquiry and (ii) provide to Parent as
soon as practicable after receipt or delivery thereof copies of any written
offer, all correspondence and any other written material sent or provided to the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries from any person that describes any of the
terms or conditions of any such request or inquiry.

         SECTION 6.06. Directors' and Officers' Indemnification and Insurance.

         (a) The Surviving Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to maintain in effect for six (6) years from the Effective Time, if available,
(i) directors' and officers' liability insurance covering those persons who are
currently covered by the Company's directors' and officers' liability insurance
policy on terms comparable to those applicable to the then current directors and
officers of Parent; or (ii) the current directors' and officers' liability
insurance policies maintained by the Company with respect to matters occurring
prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that in no event shall the
Surviving Corporation be required to expend pursuant to this Section 6.06 more
than an amount per year equal to 200% of current annual premiums paid by the
Company for such insurance.

         (b) This Section 6.06 shall survive the consummation of the Merger at
the Effective Time, is intended to benefit the Company, the Surviving
Corporation and the present and former directors and officers of the Company
(the "Indemnified Parties"), shall be binding, jointly and severally on all
successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation, and shall be enforceable by
the Indemnified Parties.

         SECTION 6.07. Notification of Certain Matters; Updating of Disclosure
Schedules. (a) Certain Notices. From and after the date of this Agreement until
the Effective Time, each party hereto shall promptly notify the other party
hereto of (a) the occurrence, or nonoccurrence, of any event the occurrence, or
non-occurrence of which would be likely to cause (i) any representation or
warranty made in this Agreement by such party, or any information furnished on
any Schedule in the Parent Disclosure Schedule or the Company Disclosure
Schedule by such party, to be inaccurate either at the time such representation
or warranty is made, or such information is furnished, or at the time of the
occurrence or non-occurrence of such event; or (ii) any failure by such party to
comply with or satisfy any condition to the obligations of such party to effect
the Share Exchange, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, or (b) the failure of the Company or Parent, as the case may be, to
comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with
or satisfied by it pursuant to this Agreement which would be likely to result in
any condition to the obligations of any party to effect the Share Exchange, the
Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement not to be
satisfied; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this
Section 6.07 shall not be deemed to be an amendment of this Agreement or any
Schedule in the Parent Disclosure Schedule or the Company Disclosure Schedule
and shall not cure any breach of any representation or warranty requiring
disclosure of such matter prior to the date of this

                                     - 40 -

<PAGE>

Agreement. No delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.07 shall limit
or affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice.

         (b) Updating of Disclosure Schedules. Not later than the fifth business
day prior to the scheduled Closing Date, the Company shall provide updated
disclosure schedules to Parent reflecting any developments between the date
hereof and the Closing Date which are expected to cause any of the
representations of the Company set forth herein to be inaccurate or incomplete
in any respect as of the Closing. Delivery of such updated disclosure schedules
shall not be deemed to update, modify or amend in any respect the
representations and warranties of the Company for purposes of Section 7.04, save
in respect of such matters as fall within the exclusions from the definition of
"Company Material Adverse Effect" set forth in Section 13.1, and, subject to the
foregoing exception, Parent shall retain all of its rights under Section 7.04
based on the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein, as
modified by the disclosure schedules delivered on the date hereof. If Parent
elects to consummate the Closing notwithstanding the matters disclosed on such
updated disclosure schedules, then the representations and warranties of the
Company and shall be deemed modified for purposes of Article IX solely to the
extent of matters that both (a) are expressly disclosed on the respective
updated schedules and (b) relate solely to matters intervening between the date
hereof and the Closing Date that cause a representation which is true and
correct as of the date hereof not to be correct when given as of the Closing
Date. The modification provided for in the preceding sentence shall not apply to
a matter insofar as knowledge acquired between the date hereof and Closing
causes a representation or warranty to be known to have been incorrect as of the
date hereof.

         SECTION 6.08. Public Announcements. Parent and the Company shall
consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any
public statements with respect to this Agreement or the Share Exchange, the
Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue any
such press release or make any such public statement prior to such consultation,
except as may be required by Law. The parties have agreed on the text of a joint
press release by which Parent and the Company will announce the execution of
this Agreement.

         SECTION 6.09. State Takeover Laws. If any "fair price," "moratorium,"
"control share acquisition," "interested stockholder" or other similar
anti-takeover statute or regulation (each a "Takeover Statute") (including the
Interested Stockholder Statute) is or may become applicable to the Merger or the
other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of Parent and the
Company shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary so
that such transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the
terms contemplated by this Agreement, and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize
the effects of such Takeover Statutes.

         SECTION 6.10. Additional Company SEC Reports; Financial Statements.
From and after the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, (i) the
Company shall file all forms, reports and documents required to be filed by it
with the SEC; (ii) each of such forms shall be prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and
the rules and regulations thereunder; (iii) each of

                                     - 41 -

<PAGE>

such forms will not at the time they are filed contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they are made, not misleading; and (iv) each of such
forms will not at the time they are filed omit any documents required to be
filed as exhibits thereto. Each of the consolidated financial statements
(including, in each case, the notes thereto) contained in the SEC reports
referred to in the previous sentence shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP
(except as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and each will fairly present
the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the
Company and the consolidated Subsidiaries as at the respective dates thereof and
for the respective periods indicated therein in accordance with GAAP (subject,
in the case of unaudited statements, to normal and recurring quarterly and/or
year-end adjustments which are not expected to be material in amount).

directors of each of Parent, Acquisition Sub and the Company; or

         (b) by either Parent or the Company if a court of competent
jurisdiction or other Governmental Entity shall have issued, enacted,
promulgated, or enforced any law, order, judgment, decree, injunction or ruling
or taken any other action (that has not been vacated, withdrawn or overturned),

         (d) by the Company, if there shall have occurred, on the part of Parent
or Acquisition Sub, a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement contained in this Agreement that (x) would result in a failure of a

Company a proposal for a Competing Transaction under circumstances where a
majority of such directors reasonably determines in good faith (i) after
consultation with independent legal counsel, that failure to accept such
proposal would be a breach of the fiduciary duty of such directors and (ii)
based on the written opinion of a nationally recognized financial advisor, that
such Competing Transaction is reasonably likely to be more favorable to the
Company's stockholders from a financial point of view than the Merger; provided
that any termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to this Section
8.01(g) shall not be effective unless and until (A) the board of directors of
the Company has provided Parent with written notice that the Company intends to
enter into a binding written agreement in respect of such Competing Transaction,
(B) the Company shall have attached the most current written version of such
Competing Transaction to such notice, and (C) Parent does not make, within five

directors at any time prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that (a)

allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act
of any other party hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and
warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c)
waive compliance with any agreement or condition contained herein. Any such
extension or waiver shall be valid if set forth in an instrument in writing
signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby. Such rights of waiver shall

attorneys' fees and disbursements and other costs incurred or sustained by an
Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense or prosecution of any
such claim or any action or proceeding between the Indemnitee and the
Indemnifying Party or between the Indemnitee and any third party or otherwise),
whether or not involving a third-party claim (collectively, "Losses"), relating
to or arising out of the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement of the Company, Behrman or SEF contained in this Agreement.

         (b) Except as set forth in the second sentence of this paragraph and
subject to the additional limitations set forth in Section 9.01(c), Behrman, SEF
and the Series F Holders (or, if closing shall not have occurred, the Company)
shall not be required to indemnify the Parent Indemnitees with respect to any
claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.01(a) unless and until the
aggregate amount of all claims against Behrman, SEF and the Series F Holders
(or, if Closing shall not have occurred, the Company) under Section 9.01(a)
exceeds $250,000, at which point Behrman, SEF and the Series F Holders (or, if
Closing shall not have occurred, the Company) shall be liable for the full
amount of all such Losses. The amount of the indemnifiable portion of any Loss
for which indemnification is sought under Section 9.01(a) shall be allocated
among Behrman, SEF and the Series F Holders as follows: (a) 49.8%(the "Behrman
Indemnification Percentage") to Behrman and SEF, pro rata to their ownership of
Daleen Series F Preferred Stock immediately prior to consummation of the Share
Exchange, to the extent there are assets available therefor in the Behrman
Escrow, and (b) 50.2%(the "Series F Indemnification Percentage") to the Series F
Holders, pro rata to their ownership of Daleen Series F Preferred Stock
immediately prior to the Effective Time, to the extent there are assets
available therefor in the General Escrow. The limitations in the preceding
sentence shall not limit in any way (a) the rights of the Parent Indemnitees to
indemnification in respect of any remedies in respect of any inaccuracies in the
representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.4 and Section
5, nor (b) the remedies of the Parent Indemnitees in respect of fraud or willful
misrepresentation.

         (c) The sole remedy of any Parent Indemnitee in respect of any claim
for indemnification against Behrman, SEF or the Series F Holders under Section
9.01(a) (absent fraud by such entity and except in respect of any remedies in
respect of any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained in
Section 1.01(d)) shall be the right of Parent, exercisable on its own behalf or
on behalf of the other Parent Indemnitees, to cause the forfeiture to Parent of
such cash or shares of Parent capital stock as are held by the Escrow Agent in
the General Escrow in respect of such Series F Holder and in the Behrman Escrow
in respect of Behrman or SEF, as the case may be. For the purpose of avoidance
of doubt, (i) the aggregate liability of the Series F Holders in respect of any
claim for indemnification under Section 9.01(a) shall in no event exceed the
Series F Indemnification Percentage of such claim, (ii) the aggregate liability
of Behrman and SEF in respect of any claim for indemnification under Section
9.01(a) shall in no event exceed the Behrman Indemnification Percentage of such
claim, and (iii) if the cash remaining in the Behrman Escrow is insufficient to
fund the Behrman Percentage of such claim, the Parent Indemnitees shall not be
entitled to indemnification from Behrman, SEF or any Series F Holder in respect
of such shortfall, notwithstanding that assets may remain in the General Escrow.

         (d) Subject to the limitations and expiration dates contained in
Section 10.01 and in this Article 9, Behrman, SEF and each Series F Holder (or,
if the Closing shall not have occurred, the Company) shall, severally but not
jointly, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Parent Indemnitees and each of
them from and against, and shall pay and/or reimburse the foregoing Persons for,
66.67% of any and all Losses relating to or arising out of any Specified
Litigation.

         (e) Except as set forth in the second sentence of this paragraph and
subject to the additional limitations set forth in Section 9.01(f), Behrman, SEF
and the Series F Holders (or, if closing shall not have occurred, the Company)
shall not be required to indemnify the Parent Indemnitees with respect to any
claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.01(d) unless and until the
aggregate amount of all claims against Behrman, SEF and the Series F Holders
(or, if Closing shall not have occurred, the Company) under Section 9.01(d)
exceeds $250,000, at which point Behrman, SEF and the Series F Holders (or, if
Closing shall not have occurred, the Company) shall be liable for 66.67% of the
excess of the full amount of all such Losses over $250,000. The amount of the
indemnifiable portion of any Loss for which indemnification is sought under
Section 9.01(d) shall be allocated among Behrman, SEF and the Series F Holders
as follows: (a) the Behrman Indemnification Percentage to Behrman and SEF, to
the extent there are assets available therefor in the Behrman Escrow, pro rata
to their ownership of Daleen Series F Preferred Stock immediately prior to
consummation of the Share Exchange, and (b) the Series F Indemnification
Percentage to the Series F Holders, to the extent there are assets available
therefor in the Special Escrow, pro rata to their ownership of Daleen Series F
Preferred Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time.

         (f) The sole remedy of any Parent Indemnitee in respect of any claim
for indemnification against Behrman, SEF or the Series F Holders under Section
9.01(d) or otherwise relating to or arising out of any Specified Litigation
shall be the right of Parent, exercisable on its own behalf or on behalf of the
other Parent Indemnitees, to cause the forfeiture to Parent of such cash or
shares of Parent capital stock as are held as are held by the Escrow Agent in
the Special Escrow in respect of such Series F Holder and in the Behrman Escrow
in respect of Behrman or SEF, as the case may be. For the purpose of avoidance
of doubt, (i) the aggregate liability of the Series F Holders in respect of any
claim for indemnification under Section 9.01(d) shall in no event exceed the
Series F Indemnification Percentage of such claim, (ii) the aggregate liability
of Behrman and SEF in respect of any claim for indemnification under Section
9.01(d) shall in no event exceed the Behrman Indemnification Percentage of such
claim, and (iii) if the cash remaining in the Behrman Escrow is insufficient to
fund the Behrman Percentage of such claim, the Parent Indemnitees shall not be
entitled to indemnification from Behrman, SEF or any Series F Holder in respect
of such shortfall, notwithstanding that assets may remain in the Special Escrow.

         (g) For avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the aggregate liability
of Behrman and SEF in respect of all claims for indemnification brought by
Parent Indemnitees under Article 9 exceed the amount of the Behrman Escrow.

         SECTION 9.02. Indemnification of Behrman, SEF and the Series F Holders
by Parent.

         (a) Subject to the limitations and expiration dates contained in
Section 10.01 and in this Article 9 and the rights of the Investor Indemnified
Parties (as defined in the Investment Agreement) pursuant to Section 8.2(a) of
the Investment Agreement, Parent and Acquisition Sub shall, jointly and
severally, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Behrman, SEF and the Series F
Holders (and if the Closing shall not have occurred, the Company) and each of
their respective directors, officers, managers, employees, equity holders,
agents, Affiliates, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the "Company
Indemnitees") and each of them from and against, and shall pay and/or reimburse
the foregoing Persons for, any and all Losses, relating to or arising out of the
breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Parent or
Acquisition Sub contained in this Agreement.

         (b) Except as set forth in the second sentence of this paragraph,
Parent and Acquisition Sub shall not be required to indemnify the Company
Indemnitees with respect to any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section
9.02(a) unless and until the aggregate amount of all claims against Parent and
Acquisition Sub under Section 9.02(a) exceeds $250,000, at which point Parent
and Acquisition Sub shall be liable for the full amount of all such Losses;
provided, however, that the aggregate liability of Parent and Acquisition Sub to
the Company Indemnitees shall in no event exceed $966,916. The limitations in
the preceding sentence shall not limit in any way the remedies of the Company
Indemnitees in respect of fraud or willful misrepresentation.

         SECTION 9.03. Procedures. If any party (the "Indemnitee") receives
notice of any claim or the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect
to which the other party (or parties) is obligated to provide indemnification
(the "Indemnifying Party") pursuant to Sections 9.01 or 9.02, the Indemnitee
shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice thereof within a reasonable
period of time following the Indemnitee's receipt of such notice. Such notice
shall describe the claim in reasonable detail and shall indicate the amount
(estimated if necessary) of the Losses that have been or may be sustained by the
Indemnitee. The Indemnifying Party may, subject to the other provisions of this
Section 9.03, compromise or defend, at such Indemnifying Party's own expense and
by such Indemnifying Party's own counsel, any such matter involving the asserted
Liabilities of the Indemnitee in respect of a third-party claim. If the
Indemnifying Party elects to compromise or defend such asserted Liabilities, it
shall within thirty (30) days (or sooner, if the nature of the asserted
Liabilities so requires) notify the Indemnitee of its intent to do so, and the
Indemnitee, shall reasonably cooperate, at the request and reasonable expense of
the Indemnifying Party, in the compromise of, or defense against, such asserted
Liabilities. The Indemnifying Party will not be released from any obligation to
indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder with respect to a claim without the prior
written consent of the Indemnitee, unless the Indemnifying Party delivers to the
Indemnitee a duly executed agreement settling or compromising such claim with no
monetary liability to or injunctive relief against the Indemnitee and a complete
release of the Indemnitee with respect thereto. The Indemnifying Party shall
have the right to conduct and control the defense of any third-party claim made
for which it has been provided notice hereunder, other than a third-party claim
with respect to breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section
3.15, which shall

                                     - 50 -

<PAGE>

be conducted and controlled by the Company, provided, that the Company shall act
reasonably and in good faith in the conduct and control thereof and shall
consult with the Indemnifying Parties with respect thereto. All costs and fees
incurred with respect to any such claim will be borne by the Indemnifying Party.
The Indemnitee will have the right to participate, but not control, at its own
expense, the defense or settlement of any such claim; provided, that if the
Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party shall have conflicting claims or defenses,
the Indemnifying Party shall not have control of such conflicting claims or
defenses and the Indemnitee shall be entitled to appoint a separate counsel for
such claims and defenses at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. If
the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend any claim, the Indemnitee shall make
available to the Indemnifying Party any books, records or other documents within
its control that are reasonably required for such defense.

         SECTION 9.04. Reduction by Insurance Recoveries.

         (a) Any payment made to an Indemnitee hereunder shall be net of any
insurance proceeds realized by and paid to such Indemnitee in respect of the
respective claim (after giving effect to the present value of any costs,
increased retentions, premium increases and similar present and future costs and
expenses associated with the respective insurance claim). No Indemnitee shall be
obligated to make any claim under an insurance policy if the Indemnitee, in its
reasonable judgment, believes that the cost of pursuing such insurance claim,
together with any corresponding increase in premiums or other costs or expenses,
would exceed the value of the claim for which such Indemnitee is seeking
indemnification. No Indemnitee shall have any obligation to bring litigation
against an insurer or take other action in respect of any insurer's denial,
whether in whole or in part, of a claim.

         (b) No Indemnitee shall be obligated to recover from or pursue payment
from insurance policies prior to the Indemnifying Person being required to
provide indemnification hereunder. The Indemnitee shall provide the Indemnifying
Person with prompt written notice of any receipt of insurance proceeds realized
in respect of claims for which payment of indemnity has previously been made,
and shall make prompt delivery to the Indemnifying Person of such portion of the
same as equals the amount by which payment of indemnification would have been
reduced pursuant to Section 9.04(a) if such proceeds had been realized prior to
the making of such payment of indemnification.

         SECTION 9.05. Stockholders' Representative. Behrman and SEF by their
execution hereof, and each Series F Holder, by their acceptance of the Merger
Consideration, shall be deemed to have designated and appointed Behrman Brothers
LLC (the "Behrman Designee") and a party to be named by written consent of
Series F Holders holding a majority of the shares of Series F Preferred Stock
held by the Series F Holders (the "Series F Designee") with full power of
substitution (jointly, the "Stockholders' Representative") as the representative
of each such stockholder, to perform all such acts as are required, authorized
or contemplated by this Agreement and by the Escrow Agreement to be performed by
them pursuant to Section 2.05 and Article IX hereof and the Escrow Agreement,
and hereby acknowledges that the Stockholders' Representative shall be the only
person authorized to take any action so required, authorized or contemplated by

                                     - 51 -

<PAGE>

Section 2.05 and Article IX hereof and the Escrow Agreement. Prior to the date
on which all funds in the Behrman Escrow shall have been exhausted by delivery
to Parent Indemnitees, both the Behrman Designee and the Series F Designee shall
be required to sign any instruction or other instrument on behalf of the
Stockholders Representative for such instrument to be effective. The Behrman
Designee or its designated successor (as appointed by Behrman) shall be deemed
to have ceased to be included in the definition of the Stockholders'
Representative on such date as all funds in the Behrman Escrow have been
exhausted, and thereafter the Seires F Designee or its designated successor
shall have sole authority to act as Stockholders' Representative except to the
extent any action undertaken or proposed to be undertaken under such sole
authority could reasonably be expected to adversely affect Behrman or SEF, in
which case the consent of Behrman shall be required. The Stockholders'
Representative shall act as the representative of Behrman, SEF, and each Series
F Holders under Section 2.05 and this Article IX and the Escrow Agreement, and
shall be authorized to act on behalf of Behrman, SEF, and each Series F Holders
and to take any and all actions required or permitted to be taken by the
Stockholders' Representative under Section 2.05 and this Article IX or the
Escrow Agreement with respect to any claims (including the settlement thereof)
made by any Parent Indemnitees for indemnification pursuant to Section 2.05 and
this Article IX of the Agreement and with respect to any actions to be taken by
the Stockholders' Representative pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement.
Behrman, SEF, and each Series F Holders shall be bound by all actions taken by
the Stockholders' Representative in its capacity thereof. The Stockholders'
Representative shall promptly, and in any event within five business days,
provide written notice to Behrman, SEF, and each Series F Holders of any action
taken on behalf of Behrman, SEF, and each Series F Holders by the Stockholders'
Representative pursuant to the authority delegated to the Stockholders'
Representative under this Section 9.05. Each of Behrman, SEF and the Series F
Holders is thereby deemed to have further acknowledged that the foregoing
appointment and designation shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest and
shall survive the death or incapacity of such stockholder. Each of Behrman, SEF
and the Series F Holders is thereby deemed to have authorized the other parties
hereto to disregard any notice or other action taken by such stockholder
pursuant to Section 2.05 and Article IX hereof and the Escrow Agreement except
for the Stockholders' Representative. The other parties hereto are and will be
entitled to rely on any action so taken or any notice given by the Stockholders'
Representative and are and will be entitled and authorized to give notices only
to the Stockholders' Representative for any notice contemplated by Section 2.05
and Article IX hereof and the Escrow Agreement to be given to any such
stockholder. The Stockholders' Representative may be replaced, and any successor
thereto appointed, by written consent executed by (a) Behrman in respect of the
Behrman Designee and its designated successors and (b) Series F Holders holding
a majority of the shares of Daleen Series F Preferred Stock held by all Series F
Holders as of the Effective Time in respect of the Series F Designee and his
designated successors, with such written consent to be delivered to Parent and
the Escrow Agent not later than the fifth business day after the execution and
delivery thereof. The Stockholders' Representative shall not be liable for any
act done or omitted in such capacity while acting in good faith and in the
exercise of reasonable judgment, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the
advise of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith. Behrman, SEF
and each Series F Holder shall, by their execution hereof or their acceptance of
the Merger

                                     - 52 -

<PAGE>

Consideration, as the case may be, be deemed to have agreed to severally
indemnify the Stockholders' Representative and hold it harmless against any
loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on the
part of the Stockholders' Representative and arising out of or in connection
with the acceptance or administration each of their duties hereunder. For the
avoidance of doubt, the Stockholders' Representative is not authorized to take
any action in the name of Behrman, SEF or any Series F Holder other than as
expressly required, authorized or contemplated by Section 2.05 and Article IX
hereof and the Escrow Agreement, and shall not have authority to enter into any
amendment, waiver or modification of this Agreement (including Section 2.05 and
Article IX hereof), which amendments, waivers and modifications are solely
governed by Section 8.04.
