     Re:  Clarus Corporation


Dear Mr. Haigian:

     This Firm is general counsel to Clarus Corporation ("Clarus").  The
correspondence of your partner, Mr. Jeffrey Tullman, of April 1, 2002 to Stephen
Jeffery of Clarus was forwarded to me for response.  As you may know, I
attempted to reach Mr. Tullman on Wednesday to respond to his correspondence.
He did return my call and I understand that he is now out of the country and he
therefore requested that I contact you.  Mr. Tullman did note that Mr. Kanders
had in fact received a response from Clarus, which likely crossed in the mail
with Mr. Tullman's letter.  Be assured that Clarus has forwarded these items of
correspondence to the entire Board of Directors of Clarus for consideration.

     The Board appreciates Mr. Kanders' concern as well as his significant
investment in Clarus.  They have requested that I inform you, on their behalf,
that they have considered his proposed nominees and are giving his requests and
concerns due consideration and, if appropriate, the independent members would be
happy to give Mr. Kanders an opportunity to make a presentation to the Board
with respect to his recommendations regarding Clarus' performance.  As I am sure
you can understand, prior to any such meeting, we would like to better
understand Mr. Kanders' intentions, plans and proposals.  In order to have a
constructive meeting and to maximize the use of both his and their time, we
request that he outline more specifically his intentions and proposals and
provide to the Board in advance thereof a proposed agenda for such meeting, as
well as any materials which he would present.  Upon receipt and review of such
materials, we can discuss a mutually convenient time for such a meeting.

     We remind you of the obligations under Rule 13d-5 promulgated under the
Exchange Act, which provides that when two or more persons agree to act together
for the purposes of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of equity securities
of an issuer, the group formed thereby shall be deemed to have acquired
beneficial ownership, for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 13(g) of the Exchange
Act, as of the date of such agreement, of all equity securities of that issuer
beneficially owned by such persons. We assume that any filings required to be
made by Kanders & Company as a result of the application of Rule 13d-5 will be
made in a timely manner.

     Again, please convey to Mr. Kanders and the members of his group that
Clarus' Board appreciates Mr. Kanders' concerns and will look forward to
receiving any information he would like to provide on his behalf.

                              Yours very truly,

                              /s/ Sharon L. McBrayer

     Re:  Clarus Corporation

Dear Mr. Haigian:

     Thank you for your letter of April 9, 2002.  We appreciate the reiteration
of Mr. Kanders' offer to serve on Clarus' Board of Directors and offer to meet
with the Clarus Board.  As I mentioned in my prior letter, we believe that it is
in the best interest of all parties that we clarify certain statements by Mr.
Kanders in advance of a meeting.  In your firm's correspondence to Steve Jeffery
of April 1, 2002, you indicated that Mr. Kanders had offered to meet with the
Board to discuss his "recommendations to improve the Company's performance."
The company is always interested in exploring opportunities to increase
shareholder value, and has been very proactive in that regard.  However, it
appears from your correspondence that Mr. Kanders has specific recommendations
that he desires to offer.  That being the case, we reiterate the request that he
provide more substantive and specific information on such "recommendations" in
order for the Board to be prepared to have meaningful discussions.

     Please be assured that any information which you or Mr. Kanders can provide
regarding his recommendations for the company will be forwarded to the Board for
prompt consideration.

     We will look forward to hearing from you.

                                     Yours very truly,

                                     WOMBLE CARLYLE SANDRIDGE & RICE
                                     A Professional Limited Liability Company
