WARRANT AGREEMENT
MAI SYSTEMS CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), hereby grants

shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") of the Company, at the price set forth
herein, and in all respects subject to the terms, conditions, and provisions of
this Agreement. In addition, although this warrant is not granted pursuant to
the Company's 1993 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") which was incorporated into
and approved as part of the Company's Plan of Reorganization, approved by the
Bankruptcy Court, and which is attached as Exhibit "A" and is incorporated
herein by this reference, it shall be subject to, and shall provide the Holder
with all of the benefits afforded optionees with respect to options granted
under the Plan. Terms defined in the Plan shall have the same meanings herein.
1. NATURE OF THE WARRANT. This Warrant is intended to be and is a stock
warrant and is not intended to be an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning
of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

on May 26, 2000. The term of the Warrant is ten years from the date of grant and

Warrant is not exercised within ten years of the date of grant, it will expire
and terminate.
3. WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE. The Warrant exercise price is $0.56 per
Share of Common Stock; provided that, if, upon the date of exercise of the
Warrant, the fair market price as of the day preceding the day of such exercise
(the "Exercise Date Closing Price") is greater than $2.81, then the exercise
price per Share (as to each Share of Common Stock with respect to which the
Warrant is so exercised) shall be increased by an amount equal to the excess of
the Exercise Date Closing Price over $2.81.

exercisable by actual receipt by the Company of written notice provided by the
Holder which shall state the election to exercise this Warrant, the number of
whole Shares in respect to which this Warrant is being exercised, and such other
representations and agreements as to the Holder's investment intent with respect
to such Shares as may be required by the Company hereunder or pursuant to the
provisions of the Plan. Such written notice shall be signed by the Xxxxx and
shall be delivered in person or by certified mail, return receipt requested, to
the then current President or Chief Financial Officer of the Company or any
other person as may be designated by the Company. The written notice shall be
accompanied by payment of the purchase price for the number of Shares in respect
to which this Warrant shall be exercised. Payment of the purchase price shall be
by check payable to the order of the Company, outstanding shares of Common Stock
duly endorsed to the Company (which shares shall be valued at their Fair Market
Value as of the day preceding the day of such exercise), or any combination of
the foregoing.
Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors of the Company,
the Company may arrange for the simultaneous exercise and sale of Shares through
the cooperation of broker-dealers which finance "same day" sales.
The certificate(s) for the Shares as to which the Warrant shall be
exercised shall be registered in the name of the Holder and shall be legended as
set forth in the Plan or as required under applicable regulatory, state or
federal law.
(c) FURTHER RESTRICTIONS ON THE EXERCISE OF THE WARRANT. This
Warrant shall not be exercised if the issuance of the Shares upon such exercise
would constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state securities law
or laws or regulations. As a condition to the exercise of this Warrant, the
Company may require the Holder to make any representation, warranty or
certification to the Company as may be required by any applicable law or
regulation or by the Plan. There shall be no exercise of any fractional shares
concerning the Warrant.
(d) ADJUSTMENT UPON CHANGE OF CAPITALIZATION. Appropriate adjustment
shall be made in the number, exercise price and class of shares of stock subject
to the Warrant in the event of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock
split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, or like change in the
capital structure of the Company.
5. TERMINATION OF STATUS AS AN EMPLOYEE. If the Holder ceases to serve
as an Employee for any reason other than death or for Cause (as defined in the
Plan) and thereby terminates his status as an Employee, the Holder shall have
the right to exercise this Warrant at any time within ninety (90) days following
the date of such termination, to the extent that the Holder was entitled to
exercise the Warrant at the date of such termination, but in no event after the
expiration of the term of the Warrant set forth in Section 2 hereof.
If the Holder ceases to serve as an Employee due to death, this Warrant
may be exercised at any time within one (1) year following the date of death by
the Purchaser's executor or administrator or the person or persons who shall
have acquired the Warrant by bequest or inheritance but only to the extent the
Holder was entitled to exercise this Warrant at the date of death. To the extent
that the Holder was not entitled to exercise the Warrant at the date of
termination or death, or to the extent the Warrant is not exercised within the
time specified herein, this Warrant shall terminate. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this Warrant shall not be exercisable after the expiration of the
term set forth in Section 2 hereof. If the Holder ceases to serve as an Employee
due to termination of his employment by the Company for
2
3
Cause (as defined in the Plan), this Warrant shall cease to be exercisable ten
(10) days following the date the notice of such termination is delivered to the
Holder.
6. NONTRANSFERABILITY OF THE WARRANT. This Warrant may not be sold,
ledged, assigned, hypothecated, gifted, transferred or disposed of in any manner
either voluntarily or involuntarily by operation of law, other than by will or
by the laws of descent of distribution, and may be exercised during the lifetime
of the Warrant only by the Holder. Subject to the foregoing and the terms of the
Plan, the terms of this Warrant shall be binding upon the executors,
administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Holder.
7. CONTINUATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Neither this Plan nor any Warrant
granted hereunder shall confer upon any Holder any right to continue in the
employment of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or limit in any respect the
right of the Company to discharge the Holder at any time, with or without cause
and with or without notice.
8. WITHHOLDING TAX LIABILITY. The Holder understands and agrees that
the company may be required to withhold part or all of the Holder's regular
compensation to pay any taxes required to be withheld under federal, state, or
local law as a result of the exercise of this Warrant, and that if such regular
compensation is insufficient, the Company may require the Holder, as a condition
of exercise of this Warrant, to pay in cash the amount of such withholding tax
liability.
9. THE PLAN. This Warrant is subject to, and the Company and the Holder
expressly agree to be bound by, all of the terms and conditions of the Plan as
it may be amended from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof,
provided that no such amendment shall deprive the Holder, without his written
consent, of this Warrant or any rights hereunder. Pursuant to the Plan, the
Committee appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company to administer the
Plan is authorized to adopt rules and regulations not materially inconsistent
with the Plan as it shall deem appropriate and proper. If questions arise as to
the intent, meaning or application of the provisions of this Warrant Agreement
or of the Plan, such questions shall be decided by Committee in its sole
discretion, and any such decision shall be conclusive and binding on the Holder.
A copy of the Plan in its present form is available for inspection during
regular business hours by the Holder of the persons entitled to exercise this
Warrant at the Company's principal office.
