Re:	Response to Statements from your May 12 Letter

Dear Management and the Board of Directors:

I am writing to respond to certain statements in your May 12 letter. You
mischaracterize Pinnacle's positions and your letter is one more attempt to
ignore the serious disagreement which many Asure ("ASUR") stockholders have
with your attempt to take the company private and continue excessive spending
on management compensation and other matters.  Pinnacle's and Red Oak's views
are spelled out in our 13D filing and our preliminary proxy statement which we
hope we will soon be able to deliver to stockholders so they can judge our
arguments for themselves.

In the meantime, please note that we have never characterized ASUR as an "asset
play" and if we regarded it as such would not have recommended to you several
important cost-saving measures.  While we have correctly pointed out that the
company was trading at a severe discount to its cash on hand, as we told Jay
Peterson in November, we viewed the company as attractive in part because of
its public forecasts of positive EBITDA and cash flow. We wish those forecasts
had proved to be correct but hope that under a new board of directors and a
slimmed down management team these goals can be achieved.  As our proxy filing
will reveal, we believe that a new board, not controlled by Pinnacle or Red Oak,
but responsive to stockholders, should seek to cut costs and return the company
to profitable operations.

You are correct when you say we have tried many times to speak with you but
mistaken when you try to characterize this as inappropriate.  Why should
management not be willing to hear suggestions from significant holders?  In
fact the first time your CEO agreed to speak with us was for 15 minutes by
telephone on March 5 and he finally met in person on April 27.  You keep trying
to cast our information requests as an "asset play," which you seem to view as
sinister.  This is egregious because you know from our face-to-face meeting
that we are seeking cost reductions and believe operations can improve.  You
also conveniently omit to point out that major cost savings would result from
things you could do without depriving holders of publicly available
information. You can reduce the cost of the $360,000/year D&O insurance when
the policy comes up for renewal in July, you can retain less expensive advisors
(instead of having Winstead charge you $150,000+ per year for public filings per
your CFO's statements during our meeting in Dallas on April 27), and you can
eliminate excess senior management by not having both a CEO and a COO.  During
our April meeting your CEO told me and others that he planned to leave in six
months anyway and have the COO take over a dual CEO/COO role.  We believe this
departure should occur immediately and without severance (based on the
aggregate losses generated under his tenure) as there is simply no need for
Asure's shareholders to pay six additional months of his salary given he has
already indicated his intent to leave.  We think it is inappropriate that you
have not explained that these savings can occur without going private.

Your comments about our requests to hold an annual meeting make us think you do
not trust your stockholders. You have ignored our requests for a stockholder
vote to elect directors, either in connection with or before the meeting to
vote on going private. With a fiscal year that ended last July, there would
seem to have been ample time to hold an annual meeting by now and you could
have saved a lot of costs by combining the two meetings. We are sorry you regard
our complaints about missed forecasts, excess overhead, and an inability in our
meeting to reconcile inconsistent statements as personal or professional
attacks.  It did seem to us that your management was unprepared to answer
questions and was unable to answer several questions. You have still not
provided answers despite the statement during our April 27 meeting in Dallas by
your director Mr. Miles that the request to explain apparent discrepancies
would be addressed.

Finally, we remain of the view that the price to be paid in the going private
transaction is excessive and we believe that if Southwest had based its opinion
on actual operating results instead of missed forecasts it would not have
recommended that price. You own letter admits that current stock prices do not
support paying such a price and we believe that current operating results do
not support that price either.

We remain opposed to what we regard as a wasteful transaction which has
generated large fees to advisors and which we believe has distracted the board
from taking immediate steps to reduce costs and improve operations.  We are
confident that these proposals will be rejected.
