Summary of Logility Stock Plan The 1997 Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors, approved by the sole stockholder of the Company in August 1997 and amended by the shareholders of the Company at the 1998 Annual Meeting. Up to 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits and other similar events) may be issued pursuant to stock options granted under the Plan. Up to 300,000 stock appreciation right ("SAR") units may be granted under the Plan, each SAR unit being equivalent to the appreciation in the market value of one share of Common Stock. The authorization of up to 1,200,000 shares for stock option grants is subject to the limitation, as set forth in the Plan, that stock options may be granted only if, following the exercise of those options, American Software would retain the 80% stock ownership percentage it requires to retain the Company as a member of American Software's consolidated group for federal and state income tax purposes. Of the 1,200,000 authorized option shares, as of June 30, 1999, no shares have been purchased pursuant to the exercise of stock options and 661,146 shares were subject to outstanding options, leaving 538,854 shares available for new options. As of June 30, 1999, based on the number of outstanding shares held by American Software, up to 65,654 shares could be granted under the 80% limitation described above. No SARs have been granted under the Plan. Purpose of Plan. The purpose of the Plan is to attract and retain the best available talent and encourage the highest level of performance by officers, employees, directors, advisors and consultants, and to provide them with incentives to put forth maximum efforts for the success of the Company's business. Automatic Option Grants to Nonemployee Directors. Under the terms of the Plan, each independent, nonemployee director automatically receives an option to purchase 2,000 shares of Common Stock upon his or her election to the Board. Each non-employee director also automatically receives an option to purchase an additional 1,000 shares on the last day of each fiscal quarter. The exercise price of each option is equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date the option is granted. Administration. The Plan is administered by the Board of Directors and by the Stock Option Committee and the Special Stock Option Committee. The Special Stock Option Committee, composed of nonemployee directors, is responsible for the administration and granting of stock options and stock appreciation rights (SARs) to executive officers of the Company. The Stock Option Committee, consisting of other directors of the Company, is responsible for the administration and granting of stock options and SARs (collectively, "Awards") to other employees and eligible persons. The Stock Option Committee, is composed of James C. Edenfield and J. Michael Edenfield. The Special Stock Option Committee is composed of Parker H. Petit and Dr. John A. White. 6 Eligibility. All employees (approximately 170 persons as of June 30, 1999) and Directors of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan. In addition, advisors and consultants to the Company may be eligible for Award grants if deemed appropriate by the Stock Option Committee. Exercise Price of Stock Options and SARs. The exercise price per share of any stock option granted under the Plan is set in each case by the respective Committee. For incentive stock options granted under the Plan, the exercise price must be at least 100% of the fair market value of Common Stock on the date of grant (at least 110% for options granted to 10% stockholders). For nonqualified stock options granted the Plan, the exercise price may be less than the fair market value per share of Common Stock on the date upon which the option is granted. The exercise price of a SAR unit granted under the Plan must be at least 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. As of the close of business on June 30, 1999, the market value of the Common Stock was $5.125 per share. Terms and Exercisability of Options and SARs. Options granted pursuant to the Plan generally expire on the tenth anniversary of the grant date, except for incentive stock options granted to 10% stockholders, which expire on the fifth anniversary of the date of grant. SARs granted under the Plant expire not later than the fifth anniversary of the date of grant. Awards granted pursuant to the Plan generally become exercisable in equal portions over a four-year period (other than formula options granted to non-employee directors, which vest immediately upon grant). Death, Disability, Retirement or Termination of Employment. Following a participant's termination of employment, Awards held by such person pursuant to the Plan are generally exercisable only with respect to the portions thereof in which the participant is then vested. Under the Plan, upon termination of employment, stock options remain exercisable for 90 days, or twelve months if termination results from death or disability, but in any event not beyond the original option term. SARs are automatically deemed to be exercised upon termination of employment, to the extent vested. Change of Control. The stock option agreements and SAR agreements provide that in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) of the Company, or a threatened Change in Control of the Company as determined by the Board of Directors, outstanding Awards will automatically become fully exercisable, subject to the right of the individual Award holder to accept a substitute stock option or similar equity right from the surviving entity in the Change of Control transaction. American Software Option Plans. So long as the Company remains a majority- owned subsidiary of American Software, officers and other employees of the Company will be eligible to receive grants of stock options under stock option plans of American Software. The grant of such options, if any, will be entirely within the discretion of the respective committees of the American Software Board of Directors. James C. Edenfield, a Director of the Company, serves on a committee of the American Software Board that has authority over one of the American Software stock option plans. Termination. The Plan terminates after August 2007, unless sooner terminated by the Board of Directors. Except as expressly contemplated by the terms of the Plan, no amendment, discontinuance or termination of the Plan will have any effect on options or SARs outstanding thereunder at the time of termination. 7 Stock Option Grants The following table sets forth information with respect to stock options granted pursuant to its 1997 Stock Plan (the "Plan") during fiscal 1999 to each of the named executive officers.

(2) These relate to stock options granted by American Software. Values are based in part on the market price of American Software Class A Common Stock. (3) James Michael Edenfield exercised options to purchase 3,938 shares of American Software Class A Common Stock on May 6, 1999 at a price of $2.22 per share. Employment Agreements The Compensation Committee and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, J. Michael Edenfield, have established that for fiscal 2000 he will receive a base salary of $259,200 and a bonus targeted at 50% of that amount, if he meets certain performance targets. These targets include factors such as pre- tax earnings and growth in revenue of the Company. The amount of the bonus may be higher than that amount, depending on the degree to which the targets are exceeded. Unless both of the targets are equaled or exceeded, Mr. Edenfield will not receive a bonus for fiscal 2000. The Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Modak on July 24, 1997, pursuant to which he serves as Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President of the Company. Currently, under his agreement Mr. Modak is entitled to receive a base salary, currently $175,000 per year, and is eligible to receive an incentive bonus based upon certain performance targets. In the event there is a change in control of the Company, and if Mr. Modak's employment with the Company is terminated by him or by the Company within six months of such change of control, he will be entitled to receive severance compensation in an amount equal to two years of his then-current salary. None of the other executive officers of the Company has entered into an employment agreement with the Company. Each of the other executive officers, however, will be entitled to incentive compensation based on individualized fiscal year performance standards. Director Compensation During fiscal 1999, the Company compensated Directors who were not employed by the Company or its affiliates at the rate of $5,000 per annum, plus $1,000 for each meeting of the Board of Directors and $600 for each meeting of any committee of the Board that they attended. 9 Directors are eligible to receive stock option grants under the Plan. Under the terms of the Plan, Directors who are not employed by the Company automatically receive stock option grants of 2,000 shares each upon his initial election and additional 1000-share grants at the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter, with exercise prices equal to the market price on those respective dates. These options become exercisable at the time of grant and expire ten years thereafter. They do not terminate if the Director ceases to serve on the Board of the Company. Under this program, Mr. Petit and Dr. White each received options to purchase an aggregate of 4,000 shares in fiscal 1999. Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation The following persons served as members of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors during fiscal 1999: Parker H. Petit, Chairman, and Dr. John A. White. Neither of the members of the Compensation Committee was an officer or employee of the Company or had any relationship with the Company requiring disclosure under Securities and Exchange Commission regulations. Report on Executive Compensation The following is the report of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Logility, Inc. for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999. Meetings. During fiscal year 1999, the Compensation Committee met on one occasion formally and has conferred informally a number of times, among the members of the Committee and with management and the other members of the Board of Directors concerning the authority and responsibilities of the Committee. The Committee has also acted by written consent on two occasions during fiscal 1999 for the purpose of granting stock options. Executive Compensation Philosophy. The Committee believes that a compensation program which enables the Company to attract and retain outstanding executives will assist the Company in meeting its long-range objectives, thereby serving the interests of the Company's shareholders. The compensation program of the Company is designed to achieve the following objectives: 1.Provide compensation opportunities that are competitive with those of companies of a similar size within the same industry. 2.Create a strong link between the executive's compensation and the Company's annual and long-term financial performance. 3.Include above-average elements of financial risk through performance- based incentive compensation that offers an opportunity for above-average financial reward to the executives. Compensation of Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee has the responsibility and authority to review and establish compensation for the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, including his participation in the Logility 1997 Stock Plan and the re-evaluation and negotiation of the terms of his employment. Following discussions with the Chief Executive Officer, J. Michael Edenfield, the Committee and Mr. Edenfield have established that for fiscal 2000, he will receive a base salary of $259,200, which is an increase of 8% above his salary for fiscal 1999, and a bonus targeted at 50% of that amount if plan targets are met. Those targets include Company performance factors such as pre-tax earnings and growth in revenue. The amount of the bonus would be higher than the targeted bonus amount, depending on the degree to which the targets are exceeded and no bonus will be paid unless both targets are met. The Committee's selection of this basis for incentive compensation reflects its belief that the Chief Executive Officer's compensation should be tied substantially to growth in revenue and pre-tax earnings. The Committee believes Mr. Edenfield is paid a reasonable salary, and that any potential bonus is based upon corporate financial goals that align his interests directly with those of other shareholders. 10 The Chief Executive Officer's cash compensation from the Company in fiscal 1999, both salary and bonus, was determined under the terms of an incentive compensation arrangement established by the Compensation Committee at the beginning of fiscal 1999. Based on the Company's results in fiscal 1999, Mr. Edenfield did not receive a bonus for that fiscal year. The Chief Executive Officer received, on August 27, 1998, a grant of a stock option consisting of 70,000 shares of common stock. That option is exercisable at the market price on that date, $2.813 per share, with a term of ten years. That option was granted by the Compensation Committee as discussed in the Report on Executive compensation for fiscal 1998. Effective June 16, 1999, the Compensation Committee granted to Mr. Edenfield an option to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock at $4.50 per share, the market price on that date. Any further participation by the Chief Executive Officer in the Stock Plan during fiscal 2000 will be determined in the discretion of the Compensation Committee based upon its authority to grant options under that Plan. Other Executive Officers. The Compensation Committee has responsibility for the review of compensation of other executive officers of the Company and consults with the Chief Executive Officer as he structures their compensation plans. To assist in this process, the Committee has reviewed compensation of officers having similar responsibilities with peer group companies, based upon publicly available information. The Committee understands that it is the policy of the Company, which is supported by the Committee, to base a substantial portion of executive officer compensation upon the achievement of Company-wide or divisional goals, relating in some cases to revenue generation, in some cases to total annual earnings, as well as other factors. The bonus plans for each of the most highly compensated executive officers reflect this approach. As James M. Modak, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, has been elected Chief Financial Officer of American Software as well, his compensation plan will be established by American Software, rather than by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company in consultation with this Committee. The Committee understands, however, that his fiscal 2000 compensation plan includes multiple incentive targets, including targets related to the operating earnings and stock price of the Company. His compensation will be allocated among the two companies in connection with the general allocation of expenses between the companies relating to shared financial and other services. The Compensation Committee has direct and exclusive authority over the granting of stock options to executive officers of the Company by acting as the Special Stock Option Committee under the Stock Plan. In addition, the Compensation Committee assists the Chief Executive Officer in evaluating and consulting on executive compensation plans, which are customized for each executive officer. Stock option grants under the Stock Plan are utilized as both a motivating and a compensating factor. Because the performance of executive officers can substantially influence performance of the entire enterprise, the Committee believes that grants of stock options and carefully structured incentive compensation plans can create greater incentives for improving Company performance, which the Compensation Committee believes may positively influence the market price for Company stock. During fiscal 1999, the Compensation Committee formally and informally considered the exercise of its authority under the Stock Plan to grant options to executive officers of the Company. The term and size of the options granted to the executive officers were intended and calculated by the Compensation Committee to reward those officers for their prior performance, to serve as incentive for promotion of Company profitability and other long-term objectives, as well as to maintain their overall compensation at competitive levels. Thus, the option grants reflect both a retrospective and prospective approach to executive compensation. During fiscal 2000, the Compensation Committee will continue to consult with the Chief Executive Officer with respect to executive officer compensation packages, including salary, bonus, stock options and fringe benefits, to ensure that compensation is appropriately related to individual and Company performance as well as competitive compensation standards and other relevant criteria. The Compensation Committee will continue its investigation of compensation arrangements in peer group companies as guides for future consultations with the Chief Executive Officer. 11 Limitations on Deductibility of Executive Compensation. Since 1994, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 has limited the deductibility of executive compensation paid by publicly held corporations to $1 million per employee, subject to various exceptions, including compensation based on performance goals. The deductibility limitation does not apply to compensation based on performance goals where (1) the performance goals are established by a compensation committee which is comprised solely of two or more outside directors; (2) the material terms are disclosed to shareholders and approved by majority vote of the shareholders eligible to vote thereon before the compensation is paid; and (3) before the compensation is paid, the compensation committee certifies that the performance goals and other material terms have been satisfied. The Company has not adopted a policy with respect to deductibility of compensation since no executive officer currently receives, or has previously received, taxable income in excess of $1 million per year from the Company. The Compensation Committee will monitor compensation levels closely, particularly in areas of incentive compensation. As revenues and income of the Company grow, incentive compensation also can be expected to increase and it may become necessary to adopt a long-term incentive compensation plan in compliance with the foregoing criteria. By the Compensation Committee: Parker H. Petit, Chairman Dr. John A. White RELATIONSHIP WITH AMERICAN SOFTWARE AND CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS The Company and American Software have entered into various agreements (the "Intercompany Agreements"), including a Services Agreement, a Facilities Agreement, a Marketing License Agreement and a Tax Sharing Agreement. These Agreements and the other Intercompany Agreements are further described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In fiscal 1999, the Company paid the following aggregate amounts to American Software under the terms of the Intercompany Agreements: Services Agreement--$1,481,000; Facilities Agreement--$342,000; and Marketing License Agreement--$308,000. Under the Tax Sharing Agreement, the Company was not allocated any federal, state and local taxes for fiscal 1999. As a result of the various transactions between the Company and American Software, amounts payable to and receivable from American Software arise from time to time. However, at April 30, 1999, there was no payable or receivable between the Company and American Software. James R. McGuone, Secretary of the Company, is a partner in the firm of Gambrell & Stolz, L.L.P., general counsel to the Company and to American Software. Legal fees in the amount of $451,058 were paid by the Company and by American Software to that firm during fiscal year 1999 for legal services rendered as general counsel to the Company and American Software. 12 STOCK PRICE PERFORMANCE GRAPH The Common Stock commenced trading on the Nasdaq National Market on October 7, 1997.
