       the "Selling Stockholders") of Triad Systems Corporation (the "Company"),
       pursuant to which the Selling Stockholders, which include all of the
       members of the Board of Directors of the Company, agreed to validly
       tender and not withdraw pursuant to Purchaser's offer to purchase an
       aggregate of 3,537,094 shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share
       (the "Shares"), of the Company representing all of the outstanding Shares
       which are owned of record or beneficially by them. Such Shares represent
