VIA FACSIMILE AND
FEDERAL EXPRESS

The Board of Directors
Clarus Corporation
3970 Johns Creek Court
Suite 100
Suwanee, Georgia  30024
Attn:    Mr. Stephen P. Jeffery,
         Chairman of the Board

Dear Sirs:

     I refer to your letter dated May 9, 2002 to the stockholders of Clarus
Corporation, and to the press releases of Clarus, dated May 9, 2002, which
announced Clarus' retention of an investment bank to explore strategic
alternatives, and Clarus' entering into preliminary discussions regarding a
"value-enhancing strategic transaction" with an unnamed party.

     Your May 9, 2002 letter to stockholders contains several statements that
not only have no basis in fact, but border on an intentional attempt on Clarus'
part to obfuscate facts and to confuse stockholders. Indeed, I am astonished
that your counsel would allow you to send such a letter to stockholders.

     o    First, your assertion that I have not disclosed a proposed sale of
          Clarus assets to an affiliate is pure speculation on your part. There
          is no foundation for any such statement by Clarus, and as I am sure
          you are aware, had I had any such intention, I would have been
          required to disclose it in the Schedule 13D that was filed and in the
          proxy materials that were sent to stockholders. Neither the Schedule
          13D nor the proxy materials has any such disclosure because such
          statement is simply not true, and a fabrication on the part of Clarus
          designed to manipulate and deceive its stockholders.

     o    Second, your assertion that I and the members of my group are
          short-term speculators who have little understanding of Clarus and
          have no interest in creating long-term value is a self-serving recital
          with no support in fact. Again, you are attempting to cloud the
          judgment of your stockholders by making baseless accusations without
          any support when, in fact, the exact opposite is true. The record is
          clear that my prior investments have been long-term in nature, and the
          successful results of such investments speak for themselves.

     o    Third, your statement that you are close to retaining an investment
          bank to assist Clarus in exploring strategic alternatives, and that
          Clarus is in preliminary discussions regarding a potential
          value-enhancing strategic transaction borders on the irresponsible.
          The consummation of any such arrangement by Clarus before its
          stockholders have had an opportunity to decide which group of
          directors' vision will lead the Company going forward is a gross
          violation of the Board's fundamental obligation to follow the
          stockholders' wishes, to whom the Board is ultimately accountable. You
          should therefore deliberate very carefully and not commit Clarus to
          any course of action until your stockholders have spoken.

     Your May 9, 2002 press releases are also quite disturbing. By retaining an
investment bank and by announcing that you are in preliminary discussions
regarding a potential value-enhancing strategic transaction, you are, in effect,
bypassing and, quite frankly, nullifying your stockholders' voice. I therefore
commend you not to take any such action until your stockholders have spoken as
to the future course of their company. I seriously doubt that your stockholders
will endorse a transaction that is to be evaluated, negotiated and consummated
by the same management that evaluated, negotiated and consummated the Company's
acquisition of SAI/Redeo Companies in May 2000 for an aggregate purchase price
of $63.2 million, and which resulted in Clarus writing off $38.6 million shortly
thereafter, in the fourth quarter of 2001, in connection with that transaction.

     I further note that Clarus' retention of U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray is not
the solution to the Company's ills. Piper Jaffray has been involved with the
Company for over two years, was involved in the Company's public offering, and
was involved with the Company during the Company's precipitous decline in
stockholder value. It also provides research and guidance on the Company, and as
such can not be viewed as an independent adviser. It therefore does not appear
that continuing with them is the answer.

     Please do not treat the issues raised herein lightly, and be guided
accordingly.

                                          Very truly yours,

                                          /s/ Warren B. Kanders

                                          Warren B. Kanders
