This Management Retention Agreement (the "Agreement") is made and entered
into effective as of August 13, 2003 (the "Effective Date"), by and between
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx ("Employee"), Crystal Decisions, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company") and Seagate Software (Cayman) Holdings Corporation ("Holding
Company"); provided, however, that Employee shall not be eligible for, or
entitled to receive, the Excess Benefits provided herein, unless the requisite
stockholder approval is obtained pursuant to Section 6 hereof. Certain
capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 1 hereof.
1. Definition of Terms. The following terms referred to in this Agreement
shall have the following meanings:
(a) Cause. "Cause" shall have the meaning given to it by the common
law of the Province of British Columbia.
(b) Change of Control. "Change of Control" shall mean the occurrence
of any of the following events:
(i) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the
Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation which
would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately
prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by
being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than fifty
percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of
the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger
or consolidation;
(ii) the approval by the stockholders of the Company of a plan
of complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or
disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company's assets;
(iii) any "person" (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and
14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act")) becoming
the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act), directly or
indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the total
voting power represented by the Company's then outstanding voting securities; or
(iv) a change in the composition of the Board, as a result of
which fewer than a majority of the directors are Incumbent Directors. "Incumbent
Directors" shall mean directors who either (A) are directors of the Company as
of the date hereof, or (B) are elected, or nominated for election, to the Board

express written consent: (i) a significant reduction of Employee's duties,
position (not including title) or responsibilities relative to Employee's
duties, position or responsibilities in effect immediately prior to such
reduction; provided, however, that a reduction of duties, position or
responsibilities solely by virtue of the Company being acquired and made part of
a larger entity (as for example, when the Chief Financial Officer of the Company
remains as such following a Change of Control and is not made the Chief
Financial Officer of the acquiring corporation) shall not constitute grounds for
a termination for Good Reason; (ii) a reduction by the Company of Employee's
base salary or target bonus opportunity as in effect immediately prior to such
reduction (other than pursuant to a proportional reduction applying to all
senior executives of the Company); (iii) a material reduction by the Company in
the kind or level of employee benefits to which Employee is entitled immediately
prior to such reduction with the result that Employee's overall benefits package
is significantly reduced (other than pursuant to a proportional reduction
applying to all senior executives of the Company); (iv) the relocation of
Employee's principal place of employment to a place outside of the Xxxxx
Xxxxxxxx xxxxxx xx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx; or (v) any action that would constitute
constructive dismissal under the common law of British Columbia. Unless waived
by the Company, Employee shall provide Company with thirty (30) days' written
notice and an opportunity to cure with respect to any curable grounds for Good
Reason termination.
(d) Merger Agreement. "Merger Agreement" shall mean that certain

following: (a) the termination of Employee's employment with the Company for any
reason prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control; (b) the first anniversary
of the occurrence of a Change of Control; or (c) the termination of Employee's
employment by the Company for Cause.

employment shall continue for a period of three (3) months following a Change of
Control ("Employment Term"); provided, however, the Company may terminate
Employee's employment for Cause, and Employee may terminate his employment for
Good Reason, at any time during the Employment Term. Subject to Section 5
hereof, if Employee's employment terminates due to a Change of Control or Good
Reason, Employee shall not be entitled to any payments, benefits, damages,
awards or compensation other than as provided by this Agreement, or as may
otherwise be established under the Company's then existing employee benefit

that one year anniversary.
(b) Exercisability of Options Prior to Change of Control. Employee
acknowledges and agrees that, for the period of time commencing on the date
hereof until the earlier of (1) the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger

Company stock granted under the 1999 Stock Option Plan, including any subplan
thereto, or any other options agreement between Employee and the Company.
5. Severance Benefits.
(a) Termination for Good Reason or Without Cause. If Employee
terminates his employment for Good Reason or if the Company terminates the
Employee's employment other than for Cause at any time within twelve (12) months
after a Change of Control and Employee signs and does not revoke a release of
claims agreement, in a form acceptable to the Company, then Employee shall be
entitled to the following severance benefits:
(i) twelve (12) months of Employee's base salary and target
bonus as in effect as of the Termination Date, less all applicable withholding,

otherwise.

(a) Requisite Approval. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
to the contrary, Employee shall not be eligible for, or entitled to receive, any
payments, benefits, or other rights that Employee would otherwise possess under
this Agreement to the extent such amounts, together with any other payments,
benefits or rights Employee is eligible to receive in connection with a change
of control within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code (a "Statutory Change
of Control"), would exceed 2.99 times his "base amount," as such term is defined
in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")

requisite stockholder approval is obtained prior to the Statutory Change of

to include in the notice any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing
of termination for Good Reason shall not waive any right of Employee hereunder
or preclude Employee from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing his
rights hereunder.

SCHEDULE A
MATERIAL TERMS OF NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT
(a) NON-COMPETE: The Employee acknowledges and agrees that during his
employment with the Company he will have access to the Company's sensitive,
confidential, and proprietary information, data, technology, business plans,
customer and vendor information, and trade secrets which would afford him an
unfair advantage if he were to compete against the Company. Therefore, the
Employee agrees that during the term of this Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation
Agreement and for a period of twelve (12) months following termination of
employment for any reason, the Employee will not directly or indirectly, alone
or as a partner, officer, director, lender, shareholder, employee, or consultant
of any other person, firm or entity, render any services, whether paid or
unpaid, in Canada or the United States for the following organizations: Actuate
Corporation, Brio Software, Inc., Cognos, Inc., MicroStrategy, Inc., Hummingbird
Ltd., SAS, Informatica Corporation, Ascential Software Corporation, Microsoft
Corporation, the Business Warehouse Group of SAP, Siebel Systems, Inc. with
respect to business intelligence software or services only, and Oracle
Corporation with respect to business intelligence software or services only
(collectively, the "Competing Companies"). For purposes of this clause,
"shareholder" shall not include beneficial ownership of less than five percent
(5%) of the combined voting power of all issued and outstanding voting
securities of a publicly held Company whose stock is traded on a generally
recognized stock exchange.
(b) NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES: The Employee acknowledges and agrees
that the Company's workforce constitutes an important and vital aspect of its
business on a world-wide basis. Therefore, the Employee agrees that for a period
of twelve (12) months following the termination of this Non-Compete and
Non-Solicitation Agreement for any reason, the Employee shall not solicit or
induce, or assist anyone else in the solicitation or inducement of, any of the
Company's then current employees to terminate their employment with the Company
and to become employed by or associated with any other business enterprise.
(c) NON-SOLICITATION OF CLIENTS: In the event Employee provides services
for one of the Competing Companies or any entity that is in the business of
manufacturing, producing, or providing business intelligence software or
services, then for twelve (12) months following termination of employment for
any reason, Employee shall not use his knowledge of the business requirements
of, or canvass, or by any other means seek or solicit business or orders for
business intelligence software or services from any person or entity who is or
has been at any time during the eighteen (18) months preceding the Employee's
termination, a client or customer of the Company or any person, firm or
corporation in the habit of dealing with the Company.
(d) BLUE PENCIL: The words making up this Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation
Agreement are severable, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
if any of the capacities, activities, periods of time or geographic areas
specified in this Agreement are considered by a court of competent jurisdiction
as being unreasonable, void or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that such
court shall be authorized to and is hereby requested and directed to limit such
capacities, activities, periods of time or geographic areas to such capacities,
activities, periods of time or geographic areas as the court considers
reasonable and enforceable in the circumstances (any such determination as to a
particular element is individually referred to as a "Replacement Term"). Where
the court specifies one or more Replacement Terms, such term or terms shall
automatically replace the corresponding term or terms set forth herein and be
binding upon the parties to the same extent as if originally set forth herein.
