Property related to and a part of the Rights and Assets (the "Transferred
Intellectual Property") owned by, registered in the name of, or used by Seller
on the date hereof, or for which application has been made. All the Transferred
Intellectual Property rights are in full force and effect and constitute legal,
valid and binding obligations of the respective parties thereto; and there have
not been, and to the knowledge of Seller, there currently are not any defaults

which are part of the Transferred Intellectual Property, and such copyrights are
free and clear of all Liens or claims for copyright infringement. To Seller's
knowledge, Seller owns or is a valid licensee of all the Transferred
Intellectual Property rights free and clear of all Liens or claims of
infringement. No proceedings have been instituted, or are pending or, to the
knowledge of Seller, threatened, which challenge the rights of Seller with
respect to the Transferred Intellectual Property. To the knowledge of Seller,
Seller has not infringed the Intellectual Property rights of others and none of
the Transferred Intellectual Property rights infringe upon or otherwise violate
the rights of others, nor has any person asserted a claim of such infringement.
Seller is not obligated to pay any royalties to any person or entity with
respect to the Transferred Intellectual Property. To the knowledge of Seller,
Seller owns or has the valid right to use all of the Intellectual Property
rights which it is presently using, or in connection with the performance of any
material contract or proposal to which it is a party.

      (b) Except as described on Schedule 2.9(a), every officer, director,
employee and consultant of Seller has entered into a contract which requires
such officer, director, employee or consultant to assign any interest in the
Transferred Intellectual Property and to keep confidential any trade secrets,
proprietary data, customer lists or other business information of the Seller,
and no such officer, director, employee or consultant is party to any contract
with any Person which requires such officer, director, employee or consultant to
assign any interest in the Transferred Intellectual Property to any Person other

Closing Date, Seller and its officers will keep confidential and not directly or
indirectly divulge to anyone or use or otherwise appropriate for its own benefit
or for the benefit of others, any knowledge or information of a confidential
nature with respect to the Rights and Assets, including all trade secrets,
pricing information or technical information (hereinafter referred to as the

information that becomes generally available to the public through no fault of
Seller, or (iii) information that is reasonably necessary for Seller to disclose
in connection with its permitted use of certain of the Transferred Software

agrees that the prohibitions against disclosure of Confidential Data recited
herein are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any rights or remedies which
Buyer may have available pursuant to the laws of any jurisdiction or at common
law to prevent the disclosure of confidential information, and the enforcement

parties hereto to be fair, reasonable and necessary for the protection of Buyer.
The parties mutually agree that if a violation of any covenant contained in this
Section 4.6 occurs, such violation or threatened violation will cause
irreparable injury to Buyer and the remedy at law for any such violation or
threatened violation will be inadequate. Seller therefore agrees that Buyer

other remedy that might be available at law or in equity.

destruction, loss or damage due to fire or other casualty from the date of this
Agreement until the Closing. If the condemnation, destruction, loss or damage is
such that the Rights and Assets are materially affected, then Buyer shall have
the right to terminate this Agreement. If Buyer nonetheless elects to close,
Seller shall remit all net condemnation proceeds or third party insurance
proceeds to Buyer and the Purchase Price shall be adjusted at Closing to reflect
such condemnation, destruction, loss or damage to the extent that insurance or
condemnation proceeds are not sufficient to cover such destruction, loss or
damage.

      4.11 Title Search; Discharge of Liens. As soon as practicable after the
date hereof, Buyer shall ascertain all Liens, if any, to which any of the Rights
and Assets are subject and notify Seller in writing of the nature and extent
thereof, providing Seller with copies of Uniform Commercial Code searches made
pursuant to Article 9 thereof in all jurisdictions where there are


                                      -11-
<PAGE>   12
any Rights and Assets. As soon as practicable thereafter, but in no event later
than the Closing, Seller shall discharge all such Liens.

      4.12 Consents to Assignment. Nothing contained in the Agreement shall be
construed as an attempt to assign any contract or agreement that is not
assignable without the consent of the other party thereto unless such consent
shall have been obtained. If any such consent is not obtained prior to Closing
and Buyer elects to proceed with the Closing, Seller agrees to offer reasonable
assistance to obtain such consents after the Closing. Further, in order that the
full value of every contract or agreement, if any, included in the Rights and
Assets may be realized, at Buyer's request, Seller agrees to take all actions
reasonably necessary to preserve for the benefit of Buyer the rights and
obligations of Seller under all such contracts and agreements and to facilitate
the collection of monies due and payable or to become due and payable to Seller
pursuant to such contracts or agreements and promptly to remit the same to
Buyer. Accordingly, Buyer shall be entitled to the rights and benefits occurring
after the Closing under such contracts and agreements and shall, at its expense,
perform the Seller's obligations due to be performed under such contracts and
agreements.

                           SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT

      This Software License Agreement (the "Agreement") is made this 8th day of
April, 1999, by and between Seagull Software Systems, Inc., a Georgia
corporation ("Seagull"), and ObjectShare, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("ObjectShare").

                               W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, Seagull and ObjectShare have entered into that certain Asset Purchase
Agreement dated as of even date herewith (the "Purchase Agreement") pursuant to
which ObjectShare shall sell to Seagull and Seagull shall purchase from
ObjectShare the Rights and Assets (as such term is defined in the Asset Purchase
Agreement); and

      WHEREAS, Seagull has agreed, as a condition precedent to ObjectShare's
obligations under the Purchase Agreement, to grant to ObjectShare a limited
right to use the computer program known as VisualSmalltalk, including both
source and object code (the "Software"), on the terms and conditions set forth
in this Agreement.

      NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the sum of $10.00 in hand paid by
ObjectShare to Seagull, and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants
and agreements contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

      1. GRANT OF LICENSE. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Seagull hereby grants ObjectShare a perpetual, world-wide,
royalty-free, non-transferable, limited license to (i) on a non-exclusive basis,
use the Software for training and consulting purposes, and (ii) on an exclusive
basis, (a) market and license the Software directly or indirectly through
distributors to third party end-users for the express purpose of building
Smalltalk-based applications, (b) perform maintenance modifications, bug-fixing,
error fixing and related support services for its then current licensees (the
"Support Services"), and (c) sub-license the Software to third parties for the
express purpose of providing Support Services on behalf of ObjectShare. Such
grant shall not, however, include: (a) the right to receive or use any future
modifications, upgrades or enhancements of the Software developed by Seagull, or
(b) the right, either directly or indirectly, to develop, support or market
software and developer's tools for (i) integrating existing AS/400 and/or
mainframe applications with each other and with new code and component objects,
(ii) building GUI clients, (iii) wrappering existing AS/400 and/or mainframe
code into objects, or (iv) developing Enterprise JavaBeans. Nothing contained
herein shall be read to prevent or restrict ObjectShare in any manner whatsoever
from fully pursuing its current Smalltalk market through its VisualWorks product
line.

      Other than as expressly set forth herein, ObjectShare may not copy,
disclose, provide, or otherwise make the Software available to others in any
form whatsoever.
<PAGE>   2

      2. PROPRIETARY RIGHTS. Except as expressly set forth in Paragraph 1
hereof, Seagull (and/or any entities from which Seagull licenses components of
the Software, as appropriate) shall retain all right, title and interest in and
to the Software and all proprietary rights therein and no title to the Software,
or any proprietary rights therein, is transferred to ObjectShare. ObjectShare
agrees to take all commercially reasonable precautions to secure and protect the
Software from unauthorized use or disclosure in violation of this Agreement.
ObjectShare also agrees to take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure that
all employees and consultants having access to the Software observe and perform
the obligations of ObjectShare under this Agreement.

      3. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES. THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SEAGULL DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL MEET THE
REQUIREMENTS OF OBJECTSHARE, OR THAT THE OPERATION OF THE SOFTWARE WILL BE
UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE.

      4. EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL SEAGULL OR ITS EMPLOYEES,
AGENTS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE TO OBJECTSHARE OR ANY THIRD
PARTY CLAIMING BY OR THROUGH OBJECTSHARE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING
WITHOUT LIMITATION DIRECT OR INDIRECT DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL INJURY, LOSS OF
BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF DATA, OR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS) ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
SOFTWARE, EVEN IF SEAGULL HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

      5. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Because of the unique and proprietary nature of the
Software, it is understood and agreed that Seagull's remedies at law for
ObjectShare's breach of this Agreement may be inadequate and that Seagull shall,
in addition to all other remedies at law or in equity, be entitled to injunctive
relief against ObjectShare without any requirement to post bond.

      6. NOTICE. Any notice to be given hereunder shall be given at the address
of the parties as set forth above, or at such other address as the parties shall
provide to the other in writing from time to time. Such notice shall be made by
personal delivery or by overnight mail by a reputable carrier and shall be
effective as of the day delivered if made by personal delivery, and the day
after being sent if sent by overnight mail.

      7. GENERAL. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements concerning the
subject matter herein and may not be amended except in writing signed by the
parties. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, such
provision shall be deemed omitted. No waiver of any breach of any provision of
this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any prior, current or subsequent
breach of the same or any provision hereof, and no waiver shall be effective
unless made in writing and executed by an authorized representative of each
party.


                                      -2-
<PAGE>   3

      8. GOVERNING LAW; ASSIGNMENT. The laws of Georgia shall govern this
Agreement, and the parties consent to venue and jurisdiction in a federal or
state court in Georgia. Neither this Agreement nor any of ObjectShare's rights
hereunder may be assigned, licensed, pledged or otherwise transferred either
voluntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise without the prior written consent
of Seagull, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed,
provided, however, that ObjectShare may, without the prior consent of Seagull,
transfer this Agreement (i) to the surviving corporation in a merger or
consolidation to which it is a party or to any person that acquires all or
substantially all of its capital stock or assets, or (ii) to any person or
entity to which it transfers its business relating to the Software.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have caused this Agreement to be
executed by their respective duly authorized officers as of the day and year
first above written.

pursuant to which ObjectShare shall sell to Seagull and Seagull shall purchase
from ObjectShare the Rights and Assets (as such term is defined in the Asset

      WHEREAS, Seagull has agreed, as a condition precedent to ObjectShare's
obligations under the Purchase Agreement, to grant to ObjectShare a limited

WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR FITNESS FOR A

      4. EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL SEAGULL OR ITS EMPLOYEES,
AGENTS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE TO OBJECTSHARE OR ANY THIRD
PARTY CLAIMING BY OR THROUGH OBJECTSHARE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING
WITHOUT LIMITATION DIRECT OR INDIRECT DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL INJURY, LOSS OF
BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF DATA, OR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS) ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
SOFTWARE, EVEN IF SEAGULL HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

      5. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Because of the unique and proprietary nature of the
Software, it is understood and agreed that Seagull's remedies at law for
ObjectShare's breach of this Agreement may be inadequate and that Seagull shall,
in addition to all other remedies at law or in equity, be entitled to injunctive
relief against ObjectShare without any requirement to post bond.

      6. NOTICE. Any notice to be given hereunder shall be given at the address
of the parties as set forth above, or at such other address as the parties shall
provide to the other in writing from time to time. Such notice shall be made by
personal delivery or by overnight mail by a reputable carrier and shall be
effective as of the day delivered if made by personal delivery, and the day
after being sent if sent by overnight mail.

      7. GENERAL. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements concerning the
subject matter herein and may not be amended except in writing signed by the
parties. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, such
provision shall be deemed omitted. No waiver of any breach of any provision of
this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any prior, current or subsequent
breach of the same or any provision hereof, and no waiver shall be effective
unless made in writing and executed by an authorized representative of each
party.

      8. GOVERNING LAW; ASSIGNMENT. The laws of Georgia shall govern this
Agreement, and the parties consent to venue and jurisdiction in a federal or
state court in Georgia. Neither 


                                      -2-

this Agreement nor any of ObjectShare's rights hereunder may be assigned,
licensed, pledged or otherwise transferred either voluntarily, by operation of
law, or otherwise without the prior written consent of Seagull, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided, however, that
ObjectShare may, without the prior consent of Seagull, transfer this Agreement
(i) to the surviving corporation in a merger or consolidation to which it is a
party or to any person that acquires all or substantially all of its capital
stock or assets, or (ii) to any person or entity to which it transfers its
business relating to the Software.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have caused this Agreement to be
executed by their respective duly authorized officers as of the day and year
first above written.
