Mr. Stephen P. Jeffery
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer;
and the Secretary and Board of Directors
Clarus Corporation
3970 Johns Creek Court
Suwanee, Georgia 30024

Dear Mr. Jeffery:

         We represent Mr. Warren B. Kanders and address this letter to you in
furtherance of his letter dated March 20, 2002 to you and the Board of Directors
of Clarus Corporation ("Company"). Mr. Kanders currently owns 749,000 shares of
Company stock, almost as many shares as all current executive officers and
directors combined. In fact, certain directors of the Company affiliated with
venture capital firms appear to have sold virtually their entire equity interest
in the Company (according to 13G Statements filed with the S.E.C., although such
directors purport to disclaim beneficial ownership of such shares), not exactly
a vote of confidence in management or the Company's future.

         In his letter, Mr. Kanders noted many deficiencies in the financial
performance of the Company over the past two years, a financial performance
which has not been addressed by management or the Board and which has resulted
in the loss of millions of dollars of shareholder equity. Furthermore, the
Company's Form 10-K for 2001 just filed with the SEC, confirms further erosion
in the Company's financial position, reflecting poor judgment and lack of
operational control by management:

        o  Loss on impairment of investments of                      $15,400,000

        o  Loss on impairment of intangible assets of                 36,800,000

        o  Loss on impairment of marketable securities of              1,000,000

        o  Provision for doubtful accounts of $5,500,000 on
           revenues of 17,000,000                                      5,500,000
                                                                     -----------
                  Total Additional Diminution of Equity              $58,700,000


         Be assured that Mr. Kanders is not prepared to let the status quo
continue. He has volunteered his services and those of his two colleagues, as
nominees to the Board, and has offered to meet with the Board to discuss his
candidacy and recommendations to improve the Company's performance. To date, Mr.
Kanders has not had the courtesy of a response. Do not mistakenly believe that
you can stonewall Mr. Kanders to inaction. Mr. Kanders is a long term investor
with the resolve to achieve his objective. Pending resolution of Mr. Kanders
concerns, we caution the Board and management to refrain from any actions
enhancing their financial interests to the detriment of the Company's
shareholders.

         Finally, we wish to point out that recent analysis of corporate
governance suggests that staggered boards tend to reduce shareholder returns by
approximately 10% as compared to single class boards. We therefore suggest on
behalf of Mr. Kanders and all other stockholders that management discontinue the
staggered board at the current annual meeting of stockholders and nominate a
single slate of directors, including Mr. Kanders'nominees. Since the Board
presumably met recently to approve the Company's Form 10-K, your failure to
respond to Mr. Kanders letter is unacceptable. Accordingly, please be advised
that unless Mr. Kanders or our office receives confirmation promptly of
management's intention to nominate Mr. Kanders and his proponents for election
to the Board of Directors at the Company's next annual meeting of stockholders,
he is prepared to propose his own slate of nominees and solicit proxies in
opposition to management's nominees and take such further actions as he deems
appropriate without further notice.

         Decisive action by the Board to change the Company's course is urgently
required. While Mr. Kanders remains willing to meet with management and the
Board to explore new and creative avenues for unlocking stockholder value,
should a proxy contest ensue, such opportunity will be lost.

         Kindly present this letter to the independent directors of the Company.
We await your response.

                                           Very truly yours,

                                           /s/ Jeffrey S. Tullman
