NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

I. SUBSCRIPTION FOR UNITS AND REPRESENTATIONS BY AND COVENANTS OF SUBSCRIBER

1.1 Subscription for Preferred Units. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Subscriber hereby subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company such number of Preferred Units as is set forth upon the signature page hereof at a price equal to $500,000 per Unit and the Company agrees to sell such Preferred Units to the Subscriber for said purchase price subject to the Company's right to sell to the Subscriber such lesser number of Preferred Units as the Company may, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or desirable. The purchase price is payable by certified or bank check made payable to "American Stock Transfer & Trust Company as escrow agent for Intraware, Inc." (American Stock Transfer & Trust Company is referred to as the "Escrow Agent") or by wire transfer of funds, contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall act as such in accordance with the terms and conditions of an Escrow Agreement to be entered into among the Placement Agent, the Company and the Escrow

Agent. The Preferred Shares and Preferred Warrants shall be delivered by the Company within five (5) business days following the consummation of the Offering as set forth in Article III.

1.2 Reliance on Exemptions. The Subscriber acknowledges that this offering of Preferred Units has not been reviewed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") or any state agency because of the Company's representations that this is intended to be a nonpublic offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") and state securities laws. The Subscriber understands that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Subscriber's compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Subscriber set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Subscriber to acquire the Preferred Units.

1.3 Investment Purpose. The Subscriber represents that the Preferred Shares and Preferred Warrants comprising its Preferred Units are being purchased for its own account, for investment purposes only and not for distribution or resale to others in contravention of the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. The Subscriber agrees that it will not sell or otherwise transfer the Preferred Shares or Preferred Warrants unless they are registered under the 1933 Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available.

1.4 Accredited Investor. The Subscriber represents and warrants that it is an "accredited investor" as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act, as indicated by its responses to the Questionnaire, and that it is able to bear the economic risk of any investment in the Preferred Units. The Subscriber further represents and warrants that the information furnished in the Questionnaire is accurate and complete in all material respects.

1.5 Risk of Investment. The Subscriber recognizes that the purchase of Preferred Units involves a high degree of risk in that: (i) the Company has incurred substantial losses from operations; (ii) an investment in the Company is highly speculative and only investors who can afford the loss of their entire investment should consider investing in the Company and the Preferred Units; (iii) an investment in the Preferred Units is illiquid; (iv) transferability of the securities comprising the Preferred Units is extremely limited; and (v) the Company will require substantial additional funds to operate its business and there can be no assurance that the Maximum Offering will be completed or that any other funds will be available to the Company.

The Subscriber acknowledges receipt and careful review of: (a) the Annual Report of the Company for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2000 filed with the SEC on Form 10-K on May 26, 2000, as amended on November 9, 2000, (b) the Quarterly Report of the Company for the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2000 filed with the SEC on Form 10-Q on July 17, 2000, (c) the Quarterly Report of the Company for the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2000 filed with the SEC on Form 10-Q on October 16, 2000, (d) the Quarterly Report of the Company for the fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2000 filed with the SEC on Form 10-Q on January 16, 2001, (e) a Confidential Executive Summary prepared by the Company and attached hereto as Schedule 1.6 (the "Confidential Executive Summary"), (f) the Agency Agreement, (g) the Preferred Warrant, (h) this Subscription Agreement, (i) the Registration Rights Agreement, (j) the Series B Designation, and (k) all exhibits, schedules and appendices which are part of the aforementioned documents (collectively, the "Offering Documents"), and hereby represents that: (i) it has been furnished by the Company during the course of this transaction with all information regarding the Company which it has requested; and (ii) that it has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from duly authorized officers of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the Offering, and any additional information which it has requested.

Company or any agent, employee or affiliate of the Company, including the Placement Agent, and in entering into this transaction the Subscriber is not relying on any information other than that contained in the Offering Documents and the results of independent investigation by the Subscriber.

1.8 Tax Consequences. The Subscriber acknowledges that this offering of Preferred Units may involve tax consequences and that the contents of the Offering Documents do not contain tax advice or information.

1.12 Legends. The Subscriber understands that the certificates or other instruments representing the Securities, until such time as they have been registered under the 1933 Act as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such certificates or other instruments):

II. REPRESENTATIONS BY THE COMPANY

The Company represents and warrants to the Subscriber, except as set forth in the disclosure schedules attached hereto:

2.1 Organization and Qualification. The Company and its "Subsidiaries" (which for purposes of this Subscription Agreement means any entity in which the Company, directly or indirectly, owns capital stock and holds a majority or similar interest) are duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which they were organized, and have the requisite power and authorization to own their properties and to carry on their business as now being conducted. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business

conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect. As used in this Subscription Agreement, "Material Adverse Effect" means any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, operations, results of operations, financial condition or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries, if any, taken as a whole, or on the transactions contemplated hereby, or by the other Offering Documents or the agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or therewith, or on the authority or ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the Offering Documents. A complete list of all Subsidiaries of the Company with substantive business activities is set forth in Schedule 2.1.

2.2 Authorization; Enforcement; Validity. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement and other Offering Documents, to file and perform its obligations under the Offering Documents, and to issue the Securities in accordance with the terms of the Offering Documents. The execution and delivery of the Offering Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by the Offering Documents, including without limitation the issuance of the Securities, have been duly authorized by the Company's board of directors and no further consent or authorization is required by the Company, its board of directors or its stockholders. The Offering Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of creditors' rights and remedies.

2.3 Capitalization. The authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby is set forth in Schedule 2.3. All of such outstanding shares have been and are, or upon issuance will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

2.4 Issuance of Securities; Reservation.

(b) free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, and (c) entitled to the rights and preferences set forth in the Series B Designation and the Preferred Warrants.

The Company is not disqualified from the exemption under Regulation D by virtue of the disqualification contained in Rule 507 thereof or otherwise.

2.5 No Conflicts. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.5, the execution, delivery and performance of the Offering Documents by the Company, the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by the Offering Documents, and the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Series B Designation and the Preferred Warrants, including without limitation, the reservation for issuance and the issuance of the Securities, will not (a) result in a violation of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, any certificate of designations, preferences and rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock of the Company, or the Company's bylaws, (b) conflict with, 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 rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any material agreement, lease, license or instrument (including without limitation, any document filed as an exhibit to any of the Company's SEC Documents (as defined below)), or (c) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations and the rules and regulations of The Nasdaq National Market, Inc.) applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or affected.

(within the meaning of Regulation D under the 0000 Xxx) in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities.

2.8 No Integrated Offering. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries, any of their affiliates, and any person acting on their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require registration of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the 1933 Act or any applicable stockholder approval provisions, including without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates and any person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps referred to in the preceding sentence that would require registration of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings.

2.9 Application of Takeover Protections; Rights Agreement. The Company and its board of directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Certificate of Incorporation or the laws of the state of its incorporation which is or could become applicable to the Subscriber as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement, including without limitation, the Company's issuance of the Securities and the Subscriber's ownership of the Securities.

The Company and the Subscriber agree to the terms and provisions of Registration Rights Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit C, which terms and provisions are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety and made a part hereof.

4.2 Best Efforts. Each party shall use its best efforts timely to satisfy each of the conditions to be satisfied by it as provided in Articles V and VI of this Subscription Agreement.

The Company shall make all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Securities required under applicable securities or "Blue Sky" laws of the states of the United States following the Closing.

4.4 No Redemption or Repurchase. Unless approved by (A) the vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares (treating for this purpose, the holders of Conversion Shares issued upon conversion of the Preferred Shares as holders of the Preferred shares) or (B) the Series B Director and except as otherwise provided in the Transaction Documents, the Company shall not purchase or redeem any capital stock of the Company or any Subsidiary or any indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary convertible into or exchangeable for its capital stock or any option, warrant or right to purchase any such capital stock or convertible security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may repurchase from its employees shares of Common Stock purchased by its employees pursuant to early exercises of stock options or restricted stock purchases if such employees terminated their employment with the Company prior to the vesting of ownership of such shares and if the Company pays no more per share of Common Stock than the purchase price per share paid by such employees.

4.5 Use of Proceeds. The Company shall only use the proceeds of the sale of the Preferred Shares and Preferred Warrants for the purpose set forth on Schedule 4.5 hereto.

4.6 Conversion and Warrant Exercise Limits.

(a) If the number of Issuable Shares issuable upon conversion of all the Preferred Shares and exercise of all the Preferred Warrants sold in the Offering requires the Company to obtain the Required Approval (defined below), then until such Required Approval is obtained by the Company, the Subscriber agrees to convert Preferred Shares and exercise Preferred Warrants for only that aggregate number of Issuable Shares that would, together with all conversions of Preferred Shares and exercises of Preferred Warrants by direct and indirect transferees of the

Subscriber, result in an issuance of no more Issuable Shares than the Per Subscriber Limit (defined below).

(b) The "Per Subscriber Limit" means that number of Issuable Shares equal to 5,646,355 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of (A) the number of Issuable Shares issuable upon conversion of all Preferred Stock held by the Subscriber and any direct or indirect transferee of the Subscriber plus (B) the number of Issuable Shares issuable upon exercise of all Preferred Warrants held by the Subscriber and any direct or indirect transferee of the Subscriber, and the denominator of which is the sum of (A) the number of Issuable Shares issuable upon conversion of all Preferred Stock issued in the Offering plus (B) the number of Issuable Shares issuable upon exercise of all Preferred Warrants issued in the Offering.

(c) The "Required Approval" means either (i) approval of the conversion and exercise, respectively, of all Preferred Shares and Warrants issued to the Subscribers by the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding Common Stock, if such approval is required by NASD Marketplace Rule 4460(i)(1)(D)(ii) or (ii) obtaining an exception from Nasdaq under NASD Marketplace Rule 4460(i)(2) permitting the Company to issue the Units without obtaining the shareholder approval required under clause (i) of this sentence.

4.7 Penalty for Failure to Obtain Required Approval. If, the Required Approval is not obtained by the Company within 6 months after the Final Closing (the "Approval Deadline") then upon the delivery of written notice from the Placement Agent to the Company, the Company shall be required to repurchase the number of Preferred Shares set forth in such notice at a price per Preferred Share equal to the greater of (x) double the amount of the Conversion Price or (y) the difference between (A) the Conversion Price and (B) the average closing bid price on Nasdaq for the Common Stock for the 10 trading days preceding the Approval Deadline.
